Implementation of continuous calculation of Pcal X/Y calibration comparison factor

JoeB (LLO), DriptaB, RickS

Yesterday, with Joe's guidance we populated the new MEDM screens he has generated such that we are now running the X/Y comparison in the front-end.  See the O3 Pcal paper, LIGO-P2000113 for background regarding the X/Y comparison.

Dripta plans to append an aLog entry giving the details of the filter settings we implemeted yesterday.

Today, we used the data from last night's locked sections (at only ~20 Mpc range) to have a first look at the X/Y comparison.

One can calculate the X/Y calibration factor by hand using FFTs of the signals in both DARM and in the calibrated output of the receiver-side sensors at each end station.

The settings for the DTT FFT measurement are shown in the first attachment.

The measured heights of the peaks in the spectra are:

DARM(410.2 Hz) = 7.94349e-11
DARM(410.3 Hz) = 7.97594e-11
PcalX Rx (410.2 Hz) = 5.45026e-12
PcalY Rx (410.3 Hz) = 5.47648e-12

The X/Y comparison factor (ideally unity),  given by [PcalX(410.2) / DARM(410.2)] / [PcalY(410.3) / DARM(410.3)] = 0.99928.  Differs from unity by 0.07% or 7 parts in 10,000. (good news)

This X/Y Pcal calibration comparison factor, Chi_XY in the paper linked above, is continuously calculated by the front-end code.  The second attached plot shows the results of the calculation during a one-hour period last night.  This is our first look at the calculated data.

The filter settings used for the implementation of the Pcal X/Y comparison:

1. In the CAL_CS_PCAL_COMPARISON.adl ( SITEMAP > CAL CS > PCAL COMPARISON ) screen, we used the following settings:

  • N AVERAGES: 10.000
  • FFT LENGTH (sec): 60.000

2. From this screen, we get to CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL screen ( PCAL Y COMPARE DEMOD > PCAL LINE DEMOD pulls up this screen ). We used the following settings:

  • In OSCILLATOR block,
    • f(Hz): 410.3 Hz
    • SIN : 1.0
    • COS: 1.0

 

  • Next, in H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_DEMOD_SIG (SIG button on SIGNAL block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL screen pulls up the filter bank) we put in a bandpass filter using the Foton settings as shown in the first attachment, PCALXYcompPCALYdemodsig.png

 

  • In H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_DEMOD_I (I button on I block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL screen pulls up the filter bank), we put in a lowpass filter using the Foton settings as shown in the second attachment, PCALXYcompPCALYdemodI.png

 

  • In H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_DEMOD_Q (Q button on Q block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL screen pulls up the filter bank), we put in a similar lowpass filter using the Foton settings as shown in the third attachment, PCALXYcompPCALYdemodQ.png

3. We used similar settings at CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR screen ( PCAL Y COMPARE DEMOD > ERR DEMOD PCAL LINE  pulls up this screen ). 

  • In OSCILLATOR block,
    • f(Hz): 410.3 Hz
    • SIN : 1.0
    • COS: 1.0

 

  • In H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_ERR_DEMOD_SIG (SIG button on SIGNAL block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR screen pulls up the filter bank), we used the same foton settings as shown is PCALXYcompPCALYdemodsig.png to put in a bandpass filter with the only change in the "module" selected from the drop down menu being CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR_DEMOD_SIG.

 

  • Similarly in H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_ERR_DEMOD_I (I button on I block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR screen pulls up the filter bank), we used the same foton settings as shown is PCALXYcompPCALYdemodI.png to put in a lowpass filter with the only change in the "module" selected from the drop down menu being CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR_DEMOD_I.

 

  • In H1CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_PCAL_ERR_DEMOD_Q (Q button on Q block in the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR screen pulls up the filter bank), we used the same foton settings as shown is PCALXYcompPCALYdemodQ.png to put in a lowpass filter with the only change in the "module" selected from the drop down menu being CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_ERR_DEMOD_Q.

4. We did not make any changes/modifications to the CS_TDEP_PCAL_Y_COMPARE_EXT.

5. In the CS_TDEP_PCAL_X_COMPARE_PCAL screen, we used the following settings:
