Performance Comparison of Wavefront-Sensorless Adaptive Optics Systems by Using of the Focal Plane

open access: yesInternational Journal of Optics, 2015
The correction capability and the convergence speed of the wavefront-sensorless adaptive optics (AO) system are compared based on two different system control algorithms, which both use the information of focal plane.
