ESD bias voltage sign-flipped on ETMX and ETMY

Jeff, Darkhand, Kiwamu,

We have been meaning to do this, but kept missing a chance to do. Today we have fliiped the sign of the ESD bias voltage both on ETMX and ETMY.

This alog only describes what we did on the digital front end models. We will perform a set of confirmation measurement and verify the H1 DARM model later.


See alog 22135 for a concise summary of the bias flip.

We took open loop and Pcal sweep measurements in nominal low noise after the biases were flipped. They reside at:

  • /ligo/svncommon/CalSVN/aligocalibration/trunk/Runs/PostO1/H1/Measurements/DARMOLGTFs/2016-02-16_H1_DARM_OLGTF_7to1200Hz.xml
  • /ligo/svncommon/CalSVN/aligocalibration/trunk/Runs/PostO1/H1/Measurements/PCAL/2016-02-16_PCALY2DARMTF_7to1200Hz.xml

Darkhan will process the data later.

P.S.

I have updated the SDF accordingly for SUS-ETMX and ETMY and CAL-CS when the interferometer was in nominal low noise.

Kiwamu, Darkhan,

Summary

Our analysis of a DARM OLG TF and a PCALY  to DARM TF measurements taken after the ESD bias sign flip on Feb 16, 2016 showed that:

  • the gain of the sensing function has reduced by about 4 % since it was measured on Jan 7, 2016 (see attachment 4); it looks like the change is mostly non frequency dependent;
  • the actuation function measurement over the O1 actuation model show a frequency dependent residual(see attachment 5), we believe that this discrepancy is coming from a new LVLN ESD driver electronics TF being different from a previous one;
  • new measurements of the ESD driver electonics have to be taken to account for the hardware updates in the front end filters (SUSETMX/Y) and the Matlab DARM model.

Disscussion (actuation function)

The ETM ESD drivers' electronics and front-end FOTON filters associated with the ESD responses were recently updated, see LHO alogs 25468, 25485. Since the front end filter's do not perfectly cancel the ESD response, in the Matlab parameter files we used a better approximated ZPK responses that are based on the old ESD electronics measurements. Since currently we do not have TF measurements for the new ESD driver electronics, we have removed all of the compensations (for the non-perfect front-end filters) from the Matlab analysis of the DARM and PCALY to DARM TF measurements.
