Definitions
- the invention is specifically concerned with realizing high power densities on remote objects in order to process and / or destroy them. Based on this, the use is provided in a high power laser system with very good beam quality.
- Lasers are classified into low energy lasers, medium energy lasers and high energy lasers.
- a method for adaptive beam control of medium-energy laser weapons is described in DE 198 04 720 B4.
- the Mittelenergywaffe has a middle energy laser and a control device with thermal imaging device, computer and laser power controllers, which is set to set a desired laser beam diameter at the target in a measurement phase of the laser beam with initially low laser beam power, which is then increased progressively up to the maximum possible beam power.
- a device with a laser arrangement for the irradiation of a target is the subject of DE 102 52 685 B4.
- the laser arrangement in turn consists of an oscillator-amplifier system, which can be operated as a high-energy laser in a first mode as a directional laser in the low energy range and in the second mode.
- EP 1 730 822 B discloses a hybrid laser source which is scalable to provide a high power output beam with good beam quality.
- the laser source comprises, inter alia, a solid-state laser amplifier, an array of laser fiber amplifiers, a phase and polarization sensor and means for controlling phase and polarization of elements of the array of laser fiber amplifiers, etc.
- High energy lasers have a good beam quality only in the power range up to about 10kW. As a result, high-energy lasers with laser powers> 20kW and a good beam quality are difficult to realize. Furthermore, the damage thresholds for the optical components limit the maximum allowable laser power for a given aperture.
- a fiber laser arrangement of high beam power which consists of a plurality of continuously operating coherent single-fiber lasers supplied by a common longitudinally operated master oscillator generated pump energy via a fiber splitter distributed in the single-fiber laser branches becomes .
- the radiation leaving the fiber array is directed to a target or a target point, wherein the respective phase differences in the individual fiber laser branches are determined and evaluated in a control electronics for the control of an optimal phase coupling of the fiber branches of the fiber laser array for the intensity of the emitted To achieve laser radiation at the target point.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device and a method which makes it possible to realize especially a high-power laser system that generates a compact power density on the object.
- the invention is based on the idea of dividing the power into several lasers and geometrically superimposing them on the target so that a total power density of all individual power densities is achieved in total at the target. That is, the power density required is provided by two or more separate laser systems ( Laser branches) or to create smaller units, which are coupled to each other (for example by means of spectral or optical grating), that these each half (X / 2), third (X / 3) or quarter (X / 4) part, etc. Provide the required or desired laser power density with good beam quality, which are geometrically superimposed on the target (summation), so as to act on the object / target itself with the full power density (Fig. 5). If only two laser system branches are used, each of the branches must deliver a higher performance than if three, four or more branches are involved.
- an illumination system preferably a laser
- a laser which marks the area to be irradiated on the object.
- the reflection of the illumination signal from the object is registered by the laser system, preferably by the same telescope or optical system through which the laser beam is to be transmitted. Aligning the telescope to the reflex or fine-tracking ensures that all laser beams illuminate the marked area, increasing the power density in the marked area. In this way, the atmospheric changes of the 1st order can be compensated.
- the illumination laser can basically be driven in two modes: cw, pulsed.
- the wavelength of the illumination laser must be different from that of the laser system, so that the reflection of the illumination laser in the laser system can be separated from that of the laser system for the evaluation.
- both the illumination laser and the laser system can have the same wavelength.
- skillful Pulspausen ensured that the illumination laser and the laser system can be ensured that the laser system only evaluates the reflex of the illumination laser (illumination laser on, laser system off).
- Each of the two or more laser system branches are combined into a laser beam in a combination unit / grating.
- a combination unit / grating in addition to the spectral coupling and a geometric coupling or phase coupling is possible.
- the rays impinging on the grating are coupled in and out again so that they are emitted together via an optical system, for example a telescope, on the target (object).
- the beam thus generated is also guided onto the target, wherein it is geometrically superimposed on the target with the beam of the other laser branch. This then also applies to the other branches.
- the geometric overlay increases the performance at the destination.
- Two or more units can be directed to a grid.
- the number of alignable units is dependent on the performance of the grid.
- the laser (unit) and grid are in turn multiply combined to form an overall system and in turn aligned to a common mirror (rough tracking).
- the grating may be dielectric as well as optical in nature to allow for spectral coupling.
- each laser system has its own telescope and preferably its own tracker.
- the aim of this idea is for the laser system or the laser weapon to distribute the total aperture instead of a single aperture with a large diameter on several smaller apertures, which then usually contain the same components.
- the key components for the functional operation of the laser system in particular as a laser weapon or weapons laser are a reconnaissance system, such as a radar, a fine imaging to clear the vulnerable point of the target, a coarse and a fine tracker, a beam shaping, a laser illumination and the actual high-energy laser - the laser source ,
- a reconnaissance system such as a radar, a fine imaging to clear the vulnerable point of the target, a coarse and a fine tracker, a beam shaping, a laser illumination and the actual high-energy laser - the laser source .
- Each of the smaller units has these components, and the illumination laser, radar, and fine-imaging need not necessarily be present in each unit.
- a decentralized integration of the illumination laser, radar, fine imaging for all units is also possible. This allows a modular character of the units with which the system / weapon can be modularly constructed. Two or more units can be combined into one module. These modules are also summarized to other modules.
- the units can also be accommodated at a distance from one another, they can be distributed to several locations, including, for example, several vehicles etc. These units can also be locally linked to a high-power laser system by aligning with the destination.
- the performance on site can also be varied by the number of facilities.
- a beam of a multiple of 5, for example 20 kW and more can be generated.
- the creation of a laser beam with a power of 100 kW and more with good beam quality of the single laser is thereby realized in a simple manner.
- the present idea in addition to shortening the implementation time for a laser weapon, also allows the cost to be reduced since smaller (output) apertures can be used.
- the idea is not limited to high-performance laser systems. Much more This idea can also be transferred to low energy lasers and medium energy lasers.
- Fig. 2 shows another form of connection of several individual lasers to a total or
- Fig. 4 is an illustration of a laser weapon for the weapon system of Fig. 3, (Nur
- HEL HEL
- AO tracking, it lacks fine imaging, grobrtacking, radar, rating fire control
- Fig. 5 is a basic representation of the basic idea.
- Fig. 1a, b show a simplified representation of the basic principle of the device 1 for the realization of a (high-power) laser.
- this device 1 can also be used for material processing, for example at a greater distance, in which also moves the object.
- the laser 1 by two individual lasers 2, 3 or more individual lasers 4-7 is formed.
- the beams 50 of the individual lasers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 are projected on a target 15 and geometrically superimposed on it, so that at the target 15 a laser power of, for example, 40 kW by two lasers 2, 3 with a power of 20 kW or by four lasers 4-7 with a power of 10 kW etc. is generated.
- the individual lasers 2-7 may in turn likewise be composed of two or more individual lasers 8, 9, 0, 11, etc. (FIG. 2).
- the beams emerging from a preamplifier 12 (in For example, with 5 kW) are directed through mirror 32 and from there to a common grid 13. From the grating 13, the beam 50 generated at the grating 13 is emitted in the direction of the target 15.
- the weapon system 100 itself has besides a fire line 101 and a radar 102, a loading or evaluation 103 and two or more laser weapons 20. Furthermore, a preferably central coarse tracker 104 is provided, which effects a coarse orientation of the individual weapon laser 20 on the target / object 15.
- the individual weapons laser 20 in turn consists of at least the basic components (active) laser 21 and its own (receiving and Wirk-) telescope 25 (also with different beam diameters) and in this embodiment with its own illumination telescope 26 and a lighting laser 27.
- a Illuminating laser with telescope also decentralized arranged for all weapon weapons 100 integrated laser weapons 20 function.
- each weapon laser 20 has an adaptive optics 22, a (fine) imaging system 23 and an optical fine tracker 24.
- Each weapon laser 20 further has at least one tip-tilt mirror 28 and a deformable mirror 29 (for example, part of the adaptive optics 22) integrated in the laser beam path.
- a wavefront sensor 30 serves to improve the beam quality of the active laser 21 in a known manner.
- CCD cameras preferably with a large field-of-view (FOV).
- An evaluation and control unit 31 completes the laser weapon 20.
- the functional connections of the components mentioned can be seen in FIG.
- mirrors 32 are included, which are used for beam alignment within the weapon 20.
- the operation of the weapon system 100 is, as simply described, as follows:
- an object 15 is detected and this information is given to the fire line 101 in a known manner. Thereafter, the imaging system 6 may be activated to obtain sufficient information to combat at the vulnerable points at the target 15. About the fine tracking 7, the target 15 is driven for each weapon 20 in the middle of their appearance. The target 15 is now illuminated by the illumination laser 27 of each weapon 20, the respective active laser 21 and thus aligned each laser weapon 20 to the reflex. All laser weapons 20 see the same reflex and laser beam axes are now aligned in the same spot on the object 15! The check is made by the fire line, which then activates the effective fiber 21, several beams 50 generated and directed to a common point on the object 15, which then overlap at this point such that the desired power density is generated on the object 15 and this bothers and / or destroyed accordingly.
- the laser beam of each laser weapon (system) 20 is subject to its own atmospheric disturbance. However, this can be corrected by the own tip-tilt mirror 28 and, if necessary, by the own deformable mirror 29, so that a clean superposition of the beams 50 of the laser weapons 20 at the target 15 is achieved.
- the separation of the laser power to different targets 15 becomes possible.
- the individual laser weapons 20 are aimed at a target 15. Thereafter, some of the laser weapons 20 may be prematurely drawn to a new target and aligned by the laser laser (group) 20 responsive illumination laser.
- these can be radiated with different wavelengths or modulation (on / off, AM).
- AM modulation
- appropriate separation technologies are used to differentiate the individual illumination laser from each other.
