wavefront_stats — OPTICS imaging op

使い方

Wavefront error statistics from a Zernike expansion: RMS, PV and Strehl.

coeffs is exactly the dict :func:match3d.fit_zernike returns — {(n, m): coefficient}, coefficients in waves — and this op re-uses match3d’s own basis builder, so the two cannot drift apart in normalisation or in the (n, m) convention. Fit with fit_zernike, characterise here.

The wavefront is reconstructed on a polar grid (radial x angular) over the unit pupil and reduced with the area element rho d(rho) d(theta) — an unweighted mean over a uniform-in-rho grid over-counts the centre and is a real, silent, ~10% error.

Returns a dict: rms_waves (piston removed — piston is not an aberration) · pv_waves peak-to-valley over the pupil · strehl the Marechal estimate exp(-(2*pi*rms)^2) · marechal_valid whether rms_waves <= MARECHAL_RMS_LIMIT (0.1), because past that the estimate is optimistic and reporting the number without the caveat is the dishonest option · terms and n_max of the expansion.

Ground truth it reproduces (measured at the defaults): pure defocus {(2, 0): 0.1} — for which Z = 2*rho^2 - 1 has an exact pupil RMS of 1/sqrt(3) — gives rms_waves = 0.0577422 against the exact 0.0577350, a relative error of 1.2e-4 from the discrete quadrature (3.1e-5 at radial=256), and pv_waves = 0.2 exactly; the Strehl is 0.8766676 against the exact 0.8766962. Pure astigmatism {(2, 2): 0.1} (exact RMS 1/sqrt(6)) gives 0.0408280 against 0.0408248. Piston alone ({(0, 0): c}) gives rms 0 and Strehl 1 for any c, and RMS scales exactly linearly in the coefficients (doubling them doubles the RMS to machine precision).

Raises ValueError: coeffs is not a dict, is empty, holds more than :data:MAX_ZERNIKE_TERMS terms, has a key that is not an (n, m) int pair or is not a valid Zernike index (n >= 0, |m| <= n, n-|m| even), or a non-finite coefficient; a radial order above :data:MAX_ZERNIKE_ORDER (40 — the shared basis builder’s factorial recurrence breaks its own |Z| <= 1 bound at n = 46, measured, and the same bound is re-checked at runtime); radial / angular outside [8, MAX_GRID].

The radial quadrature is discrete, so its error grows with the order being integrated: measured, the relative RMS error tracks (n_max/radial)^2 within a factor 2 — 1.2e-4 at n_max=2, 1.7e-3 at n_max=6 and 4.3e-2 at n_max=20, all at the default radial=128. Below radial >= 16*n_max a RuntimeWarning says so rather than letting a 12%-wrong Strehl look authoritative. Raising radial fixes it at O(1/radial^2), but note the basis is built for all orders up to n_max, so the working set grows as n_max^2 * radial * angular and is capped by :data:MAX_ZERNIKE_BASIS.

Marechal is a small-aberration approximation and the RMS is over the fitted expansion, so it says nothing about wavefront structure finer than n_max — and fit_zernike itself discloses ~10% inter-mode crosstalk at its default sampling. Both limits compound; treat the Strehl as an indicator, not a measurement.
