Selected Basics of Optics and Information Theory

The following chapter summarizes basics of optics and information theory. For the sake of compactness, only limits and relations are described, which play an important role in the physical and information theoretical optimization of the introduced sensor. Elaborate explanations and mathematical derivations are widely avoided. For a detailed explanation related literature is cited.
