Measurement and Compensation of Laser Beam Wavefront Distortion in Atmospheric Environment
Free Space Optical Communication (FSOC) demonstates high confidentiality and reliability. However
atmospheric turbulence can cause beam drift
light intensity fluctuations
and phase jitter
which seriously degrades the communication performance. At present
the wavefront phase reconstruction technology of the light intensity distribution collected by an imaging device can be used to realize the real-time correction of the wavefront. The purpose of this paper is to complete the wavefront distortion measurement and compensation of the FSOC system.
Methods
2
In this paper
we adopt a combination of theory and experiment
and conduct key technology research based on mode method. The wavefront aberration restoration algorithm represented by Zernike polynomial is derived
and the mathematical theoretical model for wavefront-sensorless measurement is established.
Results
2
The experimental results show that
under the condition of weak turbulence
the receiving power increases from -16.40 to -9.11 dBm after compensation. The bit error rate decreases from 0.012 25 to 10
-7
and the signal-to-noise ratio increases from 11.43 to 21.38 dB.
Conclusion
2
The result proves that the mode method can effectively reconstruct the wavefront phase and improve the anti-turbulence ability of the system. It provides a high-precision wavefront correction scheme for the FSOC system. This study provides theoretical basis and experimental verification for wavefront sensing Adaptive Optics (AO) system
which is of great significance to improve the performance of space laser communication.
