The thermal blooming effect, platform jitter, and other effects of laser beam propagation cause serious deviation, which will have a negative impact on laser tracking systems. It is important to ensure that the laser beam does not deviate. Based on a fast steering mirror, a CMOS camera, and a Flex RIO system, a laser beam jitter control system is designed and implemented. The error is detected by camera and compensated for by the fast steering mirror (FSM), which is controlled by the Flex RIO device. By using LabVIEW and MATLAB, a closed loop model is realized. The results show that the system response is highly stabilized and has a short rise time, providing a reference for engineering applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
