The field characteristics in cases of correction of the first two modes and of quasi-mode correction based on an analysis of the moments of the intensity distribution in the image plane are compared. It is found that by selecting the size of the tracking aperture, the same level of residual distortions as for mode correction can be attained with quasi-mode correction. It is assumed that a light wave having a distorted front is incident on the aperture of a telescope that is a circle of given radius. It is also assumed that the telescope contains a device that measures the instantaneous phase distribution of this wave within the aperture. If the phase distribution of the wave is known, it is possible to ensure that the telescope possesses diffraction-limited characteristics by adding a measured phase front to the plane front by suitable means.
