Optical line of sight pointing and stabilization system
Abstract:
A system for stabilizing an optical line of sight. An optical system including primary optics and relay optics includes a jitter rejection mirror located within the path of the relay optics. An auto alignment system is provided for maintaining alignment of the jitter rejection mirror in response to a control signal. An auto alignment sensor detects jitter in a reference beam passing through the jitter rejection mirror, and the generated control signal is used to reduce the jitter. The reference beam is supplied by a stabilized source of laser signals which are received by the primary optics, and relayed to the jitter rejection mirror.
