It is more accurate to model the physical frequency noises at various places.

- The output 4 should be "Laser frequency"
- Seismic path should be excluded from the summing node
- The output after the PMC: "Laser frequency after the PMC"
- "Laser frequency after the PMC" is compared (diffed) with the output 1 "mirror motion in Hz"
- The comparator output goes to the cav pole, the PD, and the PDH gain: This is the output named "PDH Error"
- Tap a new path from "Laser frequency after the PMC" and multiply with the cav pole (C_IMC)
- Tap a new path from "Mirror motion" and multiply with the cavity high pass (s C_IMC/omega)
- Add these two: This is the output named "Frequency noise transmitted by IMC" |
