“…After deriving the PSFs/OTFs, it is necessary to characterize their consistency to aberrations using a variety of metrics. The invariance of the PSF to aberrations can be characterized by Strehl ratio 89 , Fisher information 89,97 , mean square error 26,90,96,102 , and variance 103 . The consistency of MTF/OTF to aberrations can be characterized by Fisher information 64,72,73,85 , mean square error 74,80 , Hilbert space angle 68,69,72,76 , and standard deviation 104 .…”
