Abstract: In this paper, we address the inverse problem of fast, stable, and high-quality wavefront reconstruction from pyramid wavefront sensor data for Adaptive Optics systems on Extremely Large Telescopes. For solving the indicated problem we apply well-known iterative mathematical algorithms, namely conjugate gradient, steepest descent, Landweber, Landweber-Kaczmarz and steepest descent-Kaczmarz iteration based on theoretical studies of the pyramid wavefront sensor. We compare the performance (in terms of correction quality and speed) of these algorithms in end-to-end numerical simulations of a closed adaptive loop. The comparison is performed in the context of a high-order SCAO system for METIS, one of the first-light instruments currently under design for the Extremely Large Telescope. We show that, though being iterative, the analyzed algorithms, when applied in the studied context, can be implemented in a very efficient manner, which reduces the related computational effort significantly. We demonstrate that the suggested analytically developed approaches involving iterative algorithms provide comparable quality to standard matrix-vector-multiplication methods while being computationally cheaper.
