Length Sensing and Control
4 loops: DARM CARM/CM MICH PRC

The DARM loop
Sensing Cavity pole (~90Hz,~180Hz for H2)
Error signal AS_Q
Control filter bank H1:LSC-DARM
Control signal DARM_CTRL
Actuation calibration (S3)
(H1)
~1.7nm/ct, Pendulum at 0.76Hz, Q=10

The common mode servo
Is an analog servo…
Sensing Double cavity pole (~1Hz, ~2Hz for H2)
Error signal REFL_I
Actuation Laser frequency

The PRC loop
Sensing flat (due to high CM gain)
Error signal POB_I
Control filter bank H1:LSC-PRC
Control signal PRC_CTRL
Actuation calibration (S3)
(H1)
~3nm/ct, Pendulum at 0.76Hz, Q=10

The MICH loop
Sensing flat
Error signal POB_Q
Control filter bank H1:LSC-MICH
Control signal MICH_CTRL
Actuation calibration (S3)
(H1)
~3nm/ct, Pendulum at 0.76Hz, Q=10
Acting on beam splitter (BS)and recycling mirror (RM)

Known couplings 1
MICH->DARM AS_Q 140 times less sensitive to
BS than to differential ETM’s (build-up) MICH loop acts on BS MICH loop shot noise limited above ~50Hz
2 solutions: A) until end of S3 (mid S3 at LLO): run MICH loop at low BW
(UGF ~11Hz) & filter MICH_CTRL B) now: run MICH loop at high BW (UGF >50Hz), send MICH_CTRL
to ETM’s to cancel known BS motion reduces coupling by ~40, but MICH_CTRL still significant noise source
8/13/2004 Stefan Ballmer, MIT / LIGO Hanford 11
Known couplings 2
PRC->DARM Coupling due to arm imbalance (~1/400 for H1), has zero at cavity pole PRC loop shot noise limited above ~50Hz (same diode as MICH!)
Again same 2 solutions: PRC correction (send PRCH_CTRL to ETM’s) implemented after S3
reduces coupling only by ~2 since arm imbalance is modulated (microseism)

Adaptive Input Matrix
Arm power and sideband buildup do fluctuate (~10% LHO, ~20%LLO) Front-end code calculates new input matrix element on the fly (since S3) Both arm powers and NSPOB are filtered before used
