40m Suspension Electronics Benjamin Abbott California Institute of Technology 10/18/01 G R
10/18/01 Benjamin Abbott G R Requirements Digital Suspension should be as Advanced LIGO-like as possible. Coil Drivers should be sufficient to move the 1.3Kg optics with a dynamic range on order 30 m p-p in length, and 1.5mrad p-p in angle. Filtering should meet m/ Hz noise requirement.
10/18/01 Benjamin Abbott G R Modeling Modeling done in Simulink Intended to prove that small optic controllers are sufficient for 40m core optics. Noise suppression was evaluated.
