Zusammenfassung:Wavefront aberrations caused by thermal flows or arising from the quality of optical components can significantly impair wireless communication links. Such aberrations may result in an increased error rate in the received signal, leading to data loss in laser communication applications. In this study, we explored a newly developed combined stochastic gradient descent optimization algorithm aimed at compensating for optical distortions. The algorithm we developed exhibits linear time and space complexity and demonstrates low sensitivity to variations in input parameters. Furthermore, its implementation is relatively straightforward and does not necessitate an in-depth understanding of the underlying system, in contrast to the Stochastic Parallel Gradient Descent (SPGD) method. In addition, a developed switch-mode approach allows us to use a stochastic component of the algorithm as a rapid, rough-tuning mechanism, while the gradient descent component is used as a slower, more precise fine-tuning method. This dual-mode operation proves particularly advantageous in scenarios where there are no rapid dynamic wavefront distortions. The results demonstrated that the proposed algorithm significantly enhanced the total collected power of the beam passing through the 10 μm diaphragm that simulated a 10 μm fiber core, increasing it from 0.33 mW to 2.3 mW. Furthermore, the residual root mean square (RMS) aberration was reduced from 0.63 μm to 0.12 μm, which suggests a potential improvement in coupling efficiency from 0.1 to 0.6.
