Complex ABCB-matrices: A general Tool for Analyzing Arbitrary Optical Systems

In conclusion it has been demonstrated that complex ABCD-matrix methods together with the Huygens-Fresnel principle have been shown to be a general wave optics tool for analyzing arbitrary optical systems. Several applications in statistical optics of practical interest have been analyzed and discussed. In particular. in all cases, closed form analytic solutions are obtained that, firstly, have direct physical interpretations and, secondly, are useful for parametric systems (tradeoff) studies.
