Abstract
In this paper using the Fourier transform of order fractional, the ray transfer matrix for the symmetrical optical systems type ABCD and the formulae by Collins for the diffraction, we obtain explicitly the expression for scaled Fourier transform conventional; this result is the great importance in optical signal processing because it offers the possibility of scaling the size of output the Fourier distribution of the system, only by manipulating the distance of the diffraction object toward the thin lens, this research also emphasizes on practical limits when a finite spherical converging lens aperture is used. Digital simulation was carried out using the numerical platform of Matlab 7.1.
