The correlation function attenuates more rapidly in (a) than in (b). This is due to more active blood flow in the area (a). The degree of the attenuation can be evaluated by calculating the correlation time r^ which is defined by the delay time giving half the maximum value of the correlation function. Before calculating r^, a smoothing process may be recommended. The correlation time r^ was measured at various points of the ocular fundus of volunteers to obtain the map of blood circulation states.
An alternative way would be to implement the system as a frequency domain processor, in which a filter //(/^, j ) , the Fourier transform of h, would be placed in the Fourier transform plane of a spatial filtering system. Analysis showed that such a system would form an image free from this distortion, and the scanning slit would be unnecessary. The Fourier transform of the conical lens transmittance function is another conical lens transmittance function, but one whose implementation was not in the form of a right circular cone.
