Sensorless Wavefront Correction Algorithms for Free-Space Optical Communications by Čierny, Ondrej

“…Conventional AO algorithms rely on direct wavefront sensing, an approach that is high in cost and SWaP and usually degrades in strong atmospheric scintillation. Sensing methods that are more tolerant to scintillation have been developed, but they are often more challenging to implement and further increase cost and SWaP. …”
