Abstract
Many incoherent optical/digital systems can be used for non-imaging purposes, such as passive ranging. These systems cannot effectively be analyzed or designed in terms of traditional image-forming systems. Instead, such systems should be analyzed in terms of information theory. Through mathematical modelling of the sampled image, information theory can be used to optimize a given system.
