Modeling of laser guide star wavefront sensing for extremely large telescopes

This thesis presents a simulation of the control system for Laser Guide Star (LGS) wavefront sensing of the Narrow Field Infrared Adaptive Optics System (NFIRAOS) which will be the Adaptive Optics (AO) system on the Thirty Meter Telescope. The control system is multirate and combines data from mu...
