The algorithms use linear approximations to iteratively minimize the aberrations seen by the focal-plane camera. The first algorithm, Fast & Furious (FF), uses a weak-aberration assumption and pupil symmetries to achieve fast wavefront reconstruction. The second algorithm, an extension to FF, can deal with an arbitrary pupil shape; it uses a Gerchberg–Saxton (GS)-style error reduction to determine the pupil amplitudes. Simulations and experimental results are shown for a spatial-light modulator controlling the wavefront with a resolution of 170×170  pixels. The algorithms increase the Strehl ratio from ∼0.75 to 0.98–0.99, and the intensity of the scattered light is reduced throughout the whole recorded image of 320×320  pixels. The remaining wavefront rms error is estimated to be ∼0.15  rad with FF and ∼0.10  rad with FF-GS.application/pdf201410.1364/AO.53.0045652018-11-29
