Abstract

When aligning telescopes is difficult to align precisely if the optical system with large view filed, long focal length and large-aperture. Application of reverse optimization analysis method to guide optical alignment in previous of computer-aided alignment has been proposed, namely, the theoretical and the numerical analysis were given by use software. Simulating of three-mirror off-axis optical system was carried out using reverse optimization method. The sensitivity matrix of the mirror directs the priority of adjustment freedom. Calculating the precision of primary alignment can not only reduce alignment time, but also providing the design proof for optic-mechanical design.
