In the previous work, I tried signal separation using RF45 of REFL QPD1 and QPD2. However, since some signal separation was difficult, I tried signal separation using HARD and SOFT. I also measured the sensing matrix including the signal of RF17 of REFL, and performed signal separation using RF17 of QPD2 of REFL and RF45 of QPD1. I then tried to close the loop, but was unable to do so.
FIG: Time series when trying to control XHARD_PIT. The first x-axis line is when the control is switched on and the second x-axis line is when the sign is converted. This control is designed with a 0.1 Hz UGF, but at this time it is a more slow control with a gain of 0.1. At first, the error signal (SRC1_IN1 signal) was close to 0, but the transmition power was reduced. When the sine was converted, the transmission power was increased, but not close to 0 at the error signal. However, as the error signal increases more and more, it exceeds the peak transmission power, so the transmission power drops again.
I will organise the details tomorrow and review the control set-up and measurement methods. However, I did not measure the sensing matrices of all degrees of freedom, so I did not check the couplings of the other freedoms. It is possible that some degree of freedom coupling has not been removed.
I will post details tomorrow.
