Opt. 47, D164-D175 (2008). doi: 10.1364/ao.47.00d1641559-128Xhttp://hdl.handle.net/10919/46948We propose a novel optical sectioning method for optical scanning holography, which is performed in phase space by using Wigner distribution functions together with the fractional Fourier transform. The principle of phase-space optical sectioning for one-dimensional signals, such as slit objects, and two-dimensional signals, such as rectangular objects, is first discussed. Computer simulation results are then presented to substantiate the proposed idea.
