Abstract

Nonimaging optics is described in the context of radiative transfer theory. The radiative transport equation reduces to a local equation, whose solution can be expressed using the Green’s function formalism. This yields a surface integral equation for the radiance, which can be useful for analytical and numerical calculations.
