The cophase calibration system is applied for adaptive optical phasing with a large segmented telescope mirror, which commonly uses 3-DOF micro-position device with three micro-displacement actuators to drive segments in parallel, making the entire segmented mirror in phase at one time and obtaining the desired sensor readings accordingly. In order to run the active control system to make the segments cophase, it is necessary to calculate the coordinates of the three driving points correctly for segmented mirrors specially limited in geometric parameters, especially for the stability and sensitivity of the micro-positioning device. The mirrors will be supported on a massively parallel system of electrostatically controlled, interconnected microactuators that can be coordinated to achieve precise actuation Adjusting posture of each segment independently so as to obtain the co-phasing errors and to control them at a nanometer level. Several generations of individual actuators as well as parallel arrays of actuators with segmented mirrors have been designed. A mechanical model of the system has been constructed and simulated numerically to obtain the actual position of three actuators using the RPY angle describing means. A three-channel parallel control scheme has been developed and implemented on a segmented mirror array. A universal evaluating method for optimization is prompted and will be a good guide to the design optimization of micro-positioning device for each segmented mirror when the mirrors are groundbased horizontally.
