Abstract

We present a technique for controlling a ground-based deformable mirror adaptive optics telescope to compensate for optical wave-front phase distortion induced by a turbulent atmosphere. Specifically, a predictive linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller is designed that generates commanded control voltages to the mirror actuators based on a set of time-delayed wave-front slope measurements from a Hartmann-type wave-front sensor.
