自1982 年Gilbert 明确提出气动光学问题以来的理论和实践研究表明：气动光学畸变已严重影响机载/弹载激光能量系统及激光信息系统的性能。但是，由于气动光学畸变的高时间、高空间频率特征，现有的反馈控制自适应光学系统控制带宽尚不能满足高频气动光学波前畸变实时校正对系统带宽的需求。通过梳理近30 多年来人们致力于气动光学自适应校正所做的机理、测量、校正等方面的标志性研究工作，以明确气动光学研究的问题、现状及未来的研究思路，从而为广大气动光学研究者提供理论和技术参考。

Since the problem of aero-optics is raised by Gilbert in 1982, the studies of theoretical and experimental indicate: the performance of airborne/missileborne laser energy system and laser information system is seriously reduced by aero-optical aberration. However, the limited bandwidth of feedback control adaptive optics system is not satisfied with the requirement of the high frequency aero-optical aberration realtime correction. Milestone works such as aero-optical mechanism, measurement and correction are reviewed. The objective of the paper is providing the theoretical and technical references for the aero-optical researchers.
