SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LASER-TO-DROPLET ALIGNMENT
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided for steering aligning a laser beam and a fuel target. An example method can include generating, at a first rate, first sensing data indicative of a first overlap between a fuel target and a laser beam. The example method can further include generating,...

Zusammenfassung: | Systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided for steering aligning a laser beam and a fuel target. An example method can include generating, at a first rate, first sensing data indicative of a first overlap between a fuel target and a laser beam. The example method can further include generating, at a second rate, second sensing data indicative of a second overlap between the fuel target and the laser beam. The method can further include generating, at a third rate, and based on the first sensing data and the second sensing data, a steering control signal configured to steer the laser beam or the fuel target. In some aspects, the second rate can be different from the first rate, and the third rate can be about equal to the first rate. In other aspects, the first rate and the second rate can be about equal to the third rate. |
