Dual reflector system and method for synthesizing same

In one embodiment of the present invention, an offset folded reflector pair is optimized for scanning off boresight by enforcing the Abbe Sine condition using a least-error approximation. Coma and astigmatism compare favorably over single reflector system and Gregorian pairs over a moderate field of...

Zusammenfassung:In one embodiment of the present invention, an offset folded reflector pair is optimized for scanning off boresight by enforcing the Abbe Sine condition using a least-error approximation. Coma and astigmatism compare favorably over single reflector system and Gregorian pairs over a moderate field of view. A folded-pair reflector system of the present invention offers good performance in a compact size.
