2 Currently, one of the ain challenges to optiizing SSTs perforance is to reduce the point spread function (PSF) through focus and alignent The piels in the CCD are however, the piels canbe being binned due to the epected atospheric blurring Fig shows the variations of full width half aiu (FWHM) blur spot in ters of 3 binned piels over 3 onths Fig Variations in the Full Width Half Maiu (FWHM) of SST s Point Spread Function (PSF) easured by binned piels Ideally, the PSF FWHM would be within one 3 binned piel Reducing the PSF is possible by accurately deterining the aount of focus error (and other aberrations) in the iage of a calibration star then adjusting the focus and alignent to reduce the blur spot size However due to the long eposures, to find unbiased estiates of the aberrations fro the star iage the atospheric effects ust be included in the odel TELESCOPE MODEL The odel developed in this section follows a siilar odel eployed for analysis of the Hubble Space Telescope [3] The is considered a linear shift invariant syste where the ipulse response of the syste will be the PSF The light propagating fro the distance point source (ie a star) is assued to be teporally incoherent Therefore, according to Goodan, the iage irradiance in the detector plane, i, is the convolution of point source irradiance, ( ), with s PSF [] The paraeters used in the odel are listed in Tab Tab Telescope Paraeters Model Paraeter Value Center Wavelength n Telescope Pupil/Obscuration Diaeter 3/8 Telescope Effective Focal Length 3 CCD Piel Pitch µ Star Irradiance per Frae ~^ photons Background Irradiance per Frae 3 photons Grid Size ^,, of the is defined by its annular aperture shown in Fig 3a, where u and vare coordinates in the pupil plane Wave front error caused by defocus is introduced into the pupil function using the Zernike polynoial for defocus, [] The pupil function, Au v () ( u, v ) 36( u v ) 73

() 3 CRAMER-RAO LOWER BOUND (CRLB) FOR VARIANCE The Craer-Rao lower bounds provides a theoretical lower liit of variance for estiates of the Zernike coefficient for defocus, Ẑ [3] The bounds in Fig illustrate that standard deviations of Ẑ on the order of waves are possible even in the presence of long eposure atosphere To deterine the CRLB for estiates of the Zernike coefficient for defocus the Fisher inforation, J( Z), is coputed via the following calculation [6] L Z J ( Z) E, Z () where, the CRLB for the variance of Ẑ is defined as var( Zˆ ) J Z (3) The first and second derivative of the log likelihood function Eq () respectively are The resulting Fisher inforation is d h L Z, and () Z i Z h h L Z d d () Z i Z i Z J Z The derivative of the PSF with respect defocus is L Z h ( E ) Z i Z (6)

10 6 CONCLUSIONS The fact that the atosphere can affect estiation of the coefficient for the defocus polynoial deonstrates the need to account for the effects atosphere seeing in order to accurately estiate SSTs aberrations fro star iages Joint estiation of the atospheric seeing paraeter for the long eposure atosphere s and the coefficient for the defocus polynoial deonstrates an effective way to account for the atosphere when estiating aberrations fro iagery data Results of this work are proising in that there is no indication thus far that joint estiation of the Zernike coefficients for the static aberrations in SST can t be deterined and/or alleviated 7 FUTURE WORK The net steps in this research will be to epand the joint estiator to include the other aberrations present in SST data In addition, laboratory eperients can be conducted by iaging point sources in a diffraction liited then defocusing the and adding atospheric turbulence to further show that the algoriths developed for joint estiations of Z work Ultiate validation of the work will be to sharpen the SST caera iages by reducing the aberrations in the using the basic techniques developed herein 8 ACKNOLEGMENTS This aterial is based upon work sponsored by DARPA In addition, MIT Lincoln Laboratory inputs were instruental in proble identification MIT also provided the SST sensor subsyste iages and PSF chart in Sec 9 WORKS CITED [] U S Govnernent, "NATIONAL SPACE POLICY of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA," United States Govnernent, Washington DC, [] J W Goodan, Statistical Optics, New York: Wiley Interscience, 98 [3] J M J S T a S J Fienup, "Hubble Space Telescope characterized by using phase-retrieval algoriths," Applied Optics, vol 3, no, p 77767, 993 [] J W Goodan, Fourier Optics, Greenwood Village, CO: Roberts & Copany, [] R Noll, "Zernike polynoials and atospheric turbulence," J Opt Soc A, vol 66, pp 7-, 976 [6] S M Kay, Fundaentals of Statistical Signal Processing, Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice-Hall, [7] P H Kva and B Vidakovis, Nonparaetic Statistics with Apllications to Science and Engineering, Hoboken: John Wiley & Sons, Inc, 7
