Automatic Tuning of the Internal Position Control of an Adaptive Secondary Mirror
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the key component of an Adaptive Optics system is the deformable mirror. This mirror can correct the atmospheric turbulence effects by changing its shape. In the last years Adaptive Secondary Mirrors (ASM) have been developed and the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) will be soon equipped with two ASMs. Each LBT ASM unit has 672 voice-coil force actuators to change the shape of the mirror shell. Because the actuators apply force, an internal position control is required. The LBT ASM internal control uses a local feedback of position and velocity, then the control law for each actuator has two characteristic parameters which define the closed-loop shell dynamics. In this paper, an analysis of the dynamical behavior of the ASM under the proposed control law is provided. Then an algorithm is suggested that, based on a simplified model of the shell dynamics, tunes the controller parameters by means of an automatic procedure, as a replacement for a manual procedure based on the operator skill.
