Abstract:Adaptive optics (AO) systems using tomographic estimation of three-dimensional structure of atmospheric turbulence requires vertical atmospheric turbulence profile, which describes turbulence strength as a function of altitude as a prior information. We propose a novel method to reconstruct the profile by applying Multi Aperture Scintillation Sensor (MASS) method to scintillation data obtained by a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SH-WFS). Compared to the traditional MASS, which uses atmospheric scintillation … Show more
