Abstract
A model of a nonmodulated pyramid wavefront sensor (P-WFS) based on Fourier optics has been presented. Linearizations of the model represented as Jacobian matrices are used to improve the P-WFS phase estimates. It has been shown in simulations that a linear approximation of the P-WFS is sufficient in closed-loop adaptive optics. Also a method to compute model-based synthetic P-WFS command matrices is shown, and its performance is compared to the conventional calibration. It was observed that in poor visibility the new calibration is better than the conventional.
