Integrated Thermo-Optical And Mechanical Modeling Of Telescopic Systems And Development Of Active Optics Technology
Yacov M. KLEBANOV, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Head of the Mechanics Department
OBJECTIVES
Increasing the resolution of telescopic systems, the use of active elements that systematically correct the aberrations of the wave front in telescopes
AREAS OF USE
Aerospace Industry, Optics, Mechanical Engineering
LEGAL DEFENSE
RF patent for the invention № 2213185 - Method for compensating optical aberrations using a deformable mirror.
USA Patent No. 9804388 - Method for compensating optical mirror with a deformable mirror
IMPLEMENTATION
The project is operating at the JSC RC «Progress».
The project is used to improve designs and provide thermal conditions in promising optical-electronic telescopic systems for Earth's remote sensing. The use of new approaches allows to avoid the design parameters determination for consistently specified criteria. This greatly facilitates and reduces the cost of construction. The developed technical solution meets the modern requirements of ensuring high resolution of telescopes.
PECULIARITIES
A new method of modal decomposition has been developed and on its basis a control system for active optics has been created, original procedures for integrated thermo-optical-modeling of telescopic systems are being carried out.
