Popis: Moire patterns are often observed in printing when the image is reproduced as a bilevel image with halftone. A Fourier transform analysis of screening a picture by an optical method or an ordered dither method is presented. Conventional moire—suppressing techniques are discussed considering the human visual system. The moire fringes are explained as aliasing and visible moire fringes are especially due to high-frequency spectra with high power. From this viewpoint, a screening method is proposed which uses the Fourier transform for moire suppression. This method has the additional advantage that any pitch and any screen angle may be selected.
