Abstract

The LIGO Laboratory 40m prototype interferometer at Caltech is being commissioned to prototype an optical configuration for Advanced LIGO. This optical configuration has to control five length degrees of freedom, and its control topology will be significantly more complicated than any other present interferometers. This paper explains the method of sensing, controls and lock acquisition.
