CG and phase loop blending • CG measurement too noisy at 1kHz: -2.2 mm White fringe + 2.2 mm
CG and phase loop blending • Phase actually stays within one cycle:
CG and phase loop blending • => Averaging CG over 20 frames so that the histograms don’t overlap; • Define minimum CG error for one fringe jump (depends on phase setpoint!). • Tested successfully with our vibration simulator: • Merging tests under progress. Tricky because phase setpoint and CG setpoint correlated. Approach: • Run continuous averaging of CG. If CG > CGmin, send 2 mm or CG error and wait for CG to be ok (at 50Hz). Unstable so far… • Blend the two by weighting the CG correction and phase correction. Cannot use the CG error as weight because it cannot be trusted at 1kHz.
