Dependence of the micro-arcsecond metrology (MAM) testbed performance prediction on white light algorithm approach

Abstract

MAM is a dedicated systems-level testbed that combines the major SIM subsystems including laser metrogy, pointing, and pathlength control. The testbed is configured as a modified Michelson interferometer for the purpose of studying the white-light fringe measurement processes. This paper will compare the performance of various algorithms using the MAM data, and will aid in our recommendation of how the SIM flight system should process the science and guide interferometer data.
