Abstract
Adaptive Optics systems need a wavefront sensor (WFS) for the servo-loop. The WFS integration time has to be selected considering SNR requirements. This requires to extend the integration period as much as possible, especially when dealing with faint sources. On the other hand, WFS sampling period imposes the discretization time-step to the entire servo-system, thus influencing its close loop bandwidth. The latter is also affected by additional time delays caused by WFS readout/reconstructor computing time.
