Pointing error compensation of electro-optical detection systems using Gaussian process regression

open access: yesInternational Journal of Metrology and Quality Engineering, 2021
Pointing accuracy is an important indicator for electro-optical detection systems, as it significantly affects the system performance. However, as a result of misalignment, nonperpendicularity in the manufacturing and assembly processes, as well as the ...

Evaluating pointing errors on ergodic capacity of DF relay-assisted FSO communication systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ergodic capacity of decode-and-forward (DF) relay-assisted free-space optical (FSO) communication systems when line of sight is available is analyzed over gamma-gamma fading channels with pointing errors.

Inverse Solution Error Analysis and Correction of Beam Steering System Based on Risley Prisms

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The pointing accuracy of the Risley prisms beam-steering system mainly depends on the accuracy of the solution method and the impact of the error on the solution.

On the Performance Analysis of Decode-and-Forward Multi-Hop Hybrid FSO/RF Systems With Hard-Switching Configuration

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2019
In this paper, we introduce a decode-and-forward multi-hop hybrid free-space optical/radio frequency (FSO/RF) system. The FSO link is assumed to follow Gamma-Gamma distribution with the combined effects of pointing errors and path loss under intensity ...

Pointing Model for Vehicular Quantum Communication Terminals Based on Line-of-Sight Attitude Measurement

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal
Vehicular quantum communication terminals (VQCTs) are crucial for establishing global-scale quantum networks. High-precision line-of-sight (LOS) pointing is essential for fast and reliable acquisition in satellite-based quantum key distribution (QKD ...

Measuring and Correcting Wind-Induced Pointing Errors of the Green Bank Telescope Using an Optical Quadrant Detector

open access: yes, 2011
Wind-induced pointing errors are a serious concern for large-aperture high-frequency radio telescopes. In this paper, we describe the implementation of an optical quadrant detector instrument that can detect and provide a correction signal for wind ...

Modelling Error Rates in Temporal Pointing [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2016 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2016
We present a novel model to predict error rates in temporal pointing. With temporal pointing, a target is about to appear within a limited time window for selection. Unlike in spatial pointing, there is no movement to control in the temporal domain; the user can only determine when to launch the response.

Lyot-based Ultra-Fine Pointing Control System for Phase Mask Coronagraphs

open access: yes, 2013
High performance coronagraphic imaging at small inner working angle requires efficient control of low order aberrations. The absence of accurate pointing control at small separation not only degrades coronagraph starlight rejection but also increases the
