Rv) dxdy . 42) L/2 - L2 The shape of the two-dimensional power spectrum and its relationship to the finish of various optics is studied further in Chapter 4, where the power spectrum is found from scatter data and then used to calculate surfaceroughness parameters. The moments of the two-dimensional PSD will be used in Chapter 4 to find surface statistics from BRDF data. A one-dimensional spectrum, over frequencies propagating in a fixed direction, can be found from the two-dimensional spectrum by integrating over the frequency set propagating in the orthogonal direction.

Several inches in altitude. If you have ever driven across western Kansas, you have the general idea. The surface slopes and heights can be combined to find average surface wavelengths as in the one-dimensional case; however, in order to provide additional information, the surface power spectrum density and autocovariance functions must be defined. org/terms 44 OPTICAL SCATTERING prove to be of particular value to surface characterization by light-scatter techniques because, as has been hinted at in Chapter 1, it is central to determining the scatter pattern from smooth, clean, front-surface reflectors.

The PSD and mean square statistics are evaluated by estimators if z(x) is sampled instead of fully determined (Church and Takacs 1988). N (even) samples z,, at x„ are taken of the profile at spacing d, where n varies from 0 to N- 1. This is consistent with the notation used to generate estimators for surface statistics from the profile [Eqs. 19)]. 38) where Ef Nd ' and k varies from 1 to N12. The estimator for the one-dimensional PSD, which is similar to its integral definition [Eq. 34)], can be formed from these elements.
