EAGLE 是一种用于 E-ELT 的多 IFU 仪器,具有完整的多对象 AO 系统。该 MOAO 系统当前的基线设计包括多达六颗激光导星和五颗自然导星。二十个科学通道将使用相应数量的独立 84x84 致动器可变形镜进行校正,但波前传感器不会观察到所应用的校正。除此之外,E-ELT M4 镜子也是 AO 系统的一部分,并将以闭环方式运行。这里介绍了一种基于 Durham AO 实时控制平台 (DARC) 的 EAGLE 实时控制系统的可能设计。使用我们现有的硬件,我们将基于 EAGLE 子集(单个 IFU 通道)的实现来呈现性能结果。然后可以将其复制二十次以获得完整的 EAGLE 实时控制系统,因为每个通道都是独立的。我们还考虑了其​​他 ELT 仪器的实时控制系统的实施,以及我们的方法可以带我们走多远。
EAGLE is a proposed multi-IFU instrument for the E-ELT, with a full multi-object AO system. Current baseline designs for this MOAO system include up to six laser guide stars and five natural guide stars. Twenty science channels will be corrected using a corresponding number of independent 84x84 actuator deformable mirrors, though the applied corrections will not be observed by the wavefront sensors. In addition to this, the E-ELT M4 mirror is also part of the AO system, and will operate in closed loop. One possible design for a real-time control system for EAGLE is presented here, based on the Durham AO Real-time Control platform (DARC). Using hardware that we have available, we will present performance results based on the implementation of a sub-set of EAGLE, a single IFU channel. This can then be replicated twenty times to obtain a full EAGLE real-time control system, since each channel is independent. We also consider the implementation of real-time control systems for other ELT instruments, and how far our approach can take us.
