This paper discribes a method for measuring apparent transfer function which specifies the basic frequency response of lenses with partial coherent illumination.This method is to use the Zernike’s circular polynomials to approximate the interference pattern which represents the wavefront at the exit pupil and to obtain the function of wavefront errors
then according to partial coherence theory to calculate the apparent transfer function.
