光线转换矩阵分析(又称ABCD矩阵分析)，是用于某些光学系统，特别是雷射领域的一种光线追踪技术。它包含一个描述光学系统的光线转化矩阵(ray transfer matrix)，这个矩阵与一代表光线的矢量相乘之后，可以得到光线在该系统中的运行轨迹。这类的分析也被应用于加速器物理(accelerator physics)中，用以追踪通过粒子加速器中磁铁设备的粒子，详情请见电子光学。

以下介绍的技术使用了近轴逼近法，此逼近法意即假设所有光线相对于系统的光轴(optical axis)都处于小角度(θ为径度)、短距离(x)。

Ray transfer matrix analysis (also known as ABCD matrix analysis) is a type of ray tracing technique used in the design of some optical systems, particularly lasers. It involves the construction of a ray transfer matrix which describes the optical system; tracing of a light path through the system can then be performed by multiplying this matrix with a vector representing the light ray. The same analysis is also used in accelerator physics to track particles through the magnet installations of a particle accelerator, see Beam optics.
