Abstract
A distortion measurement apparatus comprising a detector arranged to measure distortion of a substrate, and a processor arranged to receive distortion data indicating the measured distortion of the substrate and to transform the distortion data into a frequency domain representation. The distortion data may alternatively be transformed into an orthogonal polynomial or an orthonormal polynomial representation.
