Abstract
The grating array-based wavefront sensor (GAWS) is a programmable version of the popular Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) that consists of a 2D array of plane binary diffraction gratings and a single focusing lens. In the present work, a multiplexed GAWS (MGAWS) is proposed that generates a pair of low- and high-sampling zonal spots, simultaneously, having different dimensions and spatial frequencies. Realisation of both the low- and high-sampling zonal spots will allow to perform a sequence of zonal sensing in succession such that it results in reduced zonal cross-talk and improved dynamic range, in the presence of higher order aberrations. Proof-of-concept simulation results are presented to demonstrate the working of proposed MGAWS and its performance is also compared with conventional GAWS.
