Scientific paper

A 3.5 m ground-based laser gimbal system is analyzed in detail. System requirements, drive selection, rigid body dynamical simulations, evaluation gimbal tradeoffs and selection of the gimbal form, and pointing jitter studies are reported. Structural analyses and performance predictions are made. Worst case tracking scenarios are discussed with suitable feed forward arrangements. Active secondary mirror mount options as well as beam alignment options are considered.
