Design method for laser beam aggregation based on SPGD
Abstract
This paper proposes a design method for laser beam aggregation based on SPGD, effectively addressing the issue of beam aggregation inconsistency caused by external interferences during the multi-path laser beam combination process. This further enhances the energy density of the combined laser spot. By applying a random binary disturbance vector based on control parameters and employing the stochastic parallel gradient descent (SPGD) algorithm for model control and parallel iteration, the control parameters are halved. This accelerates the iteration speed, enabling rapid aggregation of the combined laser beams and maximizing the energy density of the laser spot.
