 However, if we are interested in the maximum in some diffraction order direction, it is much simpler and it seems that this is the preferably used approach - we calculate the far field value only at the diffraction order maximum. Luckily enough, this value is dependent on the aperture only, which constructs the envelope for the diffraction pattern, so in this case one could work only with a single aperture. However, to construct the diffraction pattern is a good way how to debug the problem. However, if we are interested in the maximum in some diffraction order direction, it is much simpler and it seems that this is the preferably used approach - we calculate the far field value only at the diffraction order maximum.
