Abstract:

The operating efficiency of an adaptive optics system depends strongly on the quality of a wavefront approximation by an adaptive mirror. This paper is devoted to the development of a new method of analyzing the operating efficiency of a segmented adaptive mirror. In the method, the cumulant efficiency criterion is used with Poisson noise in control channels.
