基于AR模型搜索迭代算法的望远镜跟踪误差分析

Analysis of tracking error of telescope based on AR-search-iteration algorithm

在大口径光学望远镜观测星体目标时,其跟踪误差主要由风载引起的望远镜跟踪抖动误差和大气湍流引起的跟踪误差组成.建立了望远镜跟踪误差的简化分析模型,提出了一种采用AR模型迭代算法将风载引起的望远镜跟踪抖动误差和大气湍流引起的跟踪误差分离的新方法,并在1.8 m望远镜上进行了实验验证.结果表明,风载引起的望远镜跟踪抖动误差与风向和风速直接相关,实验结果与理论分析比较符合.

The tracking errors of large-caliber optical telescope in the process of observing astral target consists of telescope tracking jitter error which is mainly caused by wind-load, and wave-front tilt error caused by atmospheric turbulence. A simplified model concerning telescope tracking error is established, and a new kind of algorithm based on AR model to separate the telescope tracking jitter error from the tracking error caused by atmospheric turbulence is proposed. Finally, an experiment is conducted on the platform of the 1.8 M telescope in Gaomeigu Observing Station to test this algorithm. Experimental results show that the telescope tracking jitter error caused by wind-load is directly related to the direction and speed of the wind, which conforms to the theoretical analysis.
