| Abstract: | Based on an expansion of the band-limited 3D extrapolation operator in terms of orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials, a closed form expression of the space-frequency response is presented. A key step is an evaluation of the (inverse) 2D Fourier transform of circularly symmetric functions, which is related to the (zero-order) Hankel transform. Hankel transforms of individual members of the orthogonal set of polynomials are available from tables and summation of series; hence, the real and the imaginary parts of the space-frequency response can be found in terms of cylindrical and spherical Bessel functions, respectively. The procedure permits an efficient and accurate evaluation of the space-frequency response. |
