The theoretical analysis of the noise property is presented in a correlated imaging system. For both entangled source produced by parametric clown-conversion (PDC) and classically light source, a small aperture of the imaging system makes the noise increase slightly and the resolution of the imaging signal degrade. We also show that, in PDC case, the noise is strongly influenced by the source
