Popis: A novel algorithm of compensation for repetitively-pulsed laser beam wandering at propagation paths, caused by the atmospheric turbulence and mirror vibrations has been proposed and verified in experiments with a TE-CO2 laser. The algorithm is based on the precise temporal control of triggering each of the TE-laser pulses at the moments when the auxiliary probe cw-laser beam modified by a modal-type adaptive optics system and having exactly the same wavefront profile, as the pulsed radiation, hits the remote object (retroreflector in the pre-set point at the path exit) by its brightest speckle.© (1998) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
