Michelson noise budget from the NB tool

Evan, Yuta

We redid the Michelson noise budget using the NB simulink tool.
The data we used was taken from the long strech MICH lock on Feb 17 (see alog #10127).
The noise budget agrees well with we have done by hand (see alog #10221, #10217).
NB model works pretty nicely.

[Result]
NB_MICH_1076736130.png: Michelson noise budget plot. "Measured" curve shows the sensitivity curve calibrated from H1:LSC-MICH_OUT. Seismic noise is copied from LLO measurement, so seismic noise curve is not real.

sensorNB_MICH_1076736130.png: Noise budget for sensor noises. Low frequency noise mainly comes from the demodulator board noise. Compared with the one we did by hand (alog #10221), there is a factor of 5 difference in ADC noise. This is because we forget to put the PD filter bank gain (H1:LSC-REFLAIR_A_RF45_(I|Q)_GAIN) in the previous one.

[Note on NbNoiseSink]
If you put NbNoiseSink block into your model, noise at the sink will be calibrated by taking out the model loop gain. If you specify a DAQ channel to that sink and if you run 'nbAcquireData' function, it gets the actual data from a NDS server (using Matlab "get_data" function). So, NB tool automatically calculates the sensitivity curve for given GPS time.

Also, note that LiveParts and data fetching fail if you specify GPS time more than ~7 days ago. I'm not sure why, but it is a limitation from "get_data" function.
