Descripción
The Sun is an ideal object for the development of Multi-Conjugate
Adaptive Optics (MCAO) since solar structure provides multiple "guide
stars" in any desired configuration. Current MCAO systems imply a number
of wavefront sensors, each of them sensing an area of the Sun. The
plenoptic camera is a novel concept for wavefront sensing, capable of
measuring the tomography of the atmospheric turbulence. By using it, the
possibility of a MCAO system with a single sensor becomes a reality.
This paper describes the functionality of the plenoptic camera as a
tomographic wavefront sensor after implementing it into the OOMAO
simulator. Simulation results demonstrate the potential of this sensor
to reconstruct atmospheric turbulence in different layers by using a
synthetic solar image as a reference.
