Abstract: Various sources of noise associated with angle of arrival measurements are discussed and their effect is evaluated and compared to experimental determinations of system noise. The predominant source of system noise is found to arise from the charge transfer process on the CCD detector itself. Image motion variance measurements are linear to within 3% over the range of image motion encountered in r$-o$/ measurements with a correlation coefficient greater than 99% when compared to a known reference.!
