Abstract

Sets of auxiliary vector functions may be derived which enable the modal coefficients of a wavefront expressed in terms of a given basis to be directly projected as weighted integrals of the wavefront slopes. We derive the necessary and sufficient condition for these functions to have minimum error norm and show that for the specific case of a basis set comprising the Zernike circular polynomials, they are precisely the Gavrielides functions.
