Abstract:

We report the method of active phase-locking of lasers in multichannel laser system based on the Gerchberg–Saxton algorithm. We propose the strategy of reconstruction of phase information, based on the global optimization methods. The mathematical modeling of the system was made for various numbers of phased channels.

Keywords:

adaptive optics, multichannel laser systems, phase-locking, Gerchberg–Saxton algorithm, global optimization
