description We propose a new secondary mirror support structure assisted by multi-robotics to improve the observation performance of vehicle-mobile telescope systems. A mathematical model of the displacement at the end of the robotic and the variation of telescope pitch angle is established, then the posture of the robotic is optimized by the Jacobian matrix iteration inverse kinematic problem method. Based on the new support structure, a high-order sensitivity matrix is proposed to establish the mapping relationship between the robotic misalignment and the Zernike coefficient, with the accuracy verified via the Monte Carlo method. The method of adjusting the secondary mirror to compensate the aberration caused by the primary mirror is proposed, and the relationship between the primary mirror surface error and the system error is established under different pitch angles before and after compensation. The experiment and simulation results showed that the adjustment calculated by the high-order sensitivity matrix method can effectively compensate for the misalignment caused by the robotics and the primary mirror surface error to a certain degree. After multiple iterations, the root mean square of the wavefront aberration was better than <inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>λ</mi><mo>/</mo><mn>15</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>. This conclusion provides an engineering application reference value for the secondary mirror support and aberration correction technology of the vehicle telescope system.
