Scientific paper

Monte Carlo simulations and laboratory measurements are performed to study various imaging and reconstruction techniques applied to rotation modulation collimator systems. Results are presented that influence the desired spatial resolution and the number of detectors required for a given RMC imager. Point source reconstructions are presented for two different-size RMC arrays, each having the same number of signal counts (1000 cts). It is concluded that for a constant number of counts, a reconstructed image of any order n, when magnified proportional to n, remains unchanged within statistics, including rms noise and side-lobes. A number of artifacts are produced in reconstructions of images taken under real or nonidealized conditions.
