Abstract :
A generalization of ABCD matrix rule for transformation of a higher Gaussian beam in general astigmatic optical systems is proposed. This way is simpler than direct Fourier integral calculation and preferable for numerical simulation. Some examples of optical systems constructing on the base of proposed approach and corresponding transformations are discussed.
