1 KAGRA Frequency Stabilization Servo Modeling Report Yuta Michimura February 18, Introduction This report is to summarize the results of KAGRA frequency stabilization servo (FSS) modeling. The modeling was done by using MATLAB Simulink based Noise Budget made by Chris Wipf [1]. The main script and the model for KAGRA FSS modeling are as follows: FSS/run FSS NB.m FSS/KAGRA FSS.mdl You will also need findnbsvnroot.m, myzpk.m, plotdobe.m, and plotspectrum.m in the same directroy to run the script. 2 Model 2.1 Simulink model The KAGRA FSS Simulink model is shown in Fig. 1. We had to use some tricks to simulate out-of-loop stability and feedback signal with Simulink Noise Budget blocks, and (see yellow and cyan areas). 1

These parameters are used to calculate the cavity pole f cp = c 2LF (1) Table 1: KAGRA cavity parameters. The round-trip length for FRC is multiplied by the refractive index of the fiber (n = 1.46). Cavity Round-trip length L Finesse F Cavity pole f c PMC 0.4 m khz FRC m khz IMC m khz Arms m Hz 2.3 Actuators The frequency actuators we use for the FSS are summarized in the table below. Table 2: The frequency actuators for KAGRA. Note that they are rough estimates yet!! MCe actuation efficiency was measured to be 25 µm/v by K. Arai [2].

The stability shown here is the stability when the servos for the next stages are turned off. For out-of-loop stability after the FRC servo, the IMC and the CARM loop is off. For the IMC stability, the FRC loop is on, but the CARM loop is off. When th CARM loop is on, the MCe loop in the IMC loop is disabled. The blue line labeled shows the bkagra frequency noise requirement [3]. 7
