  2. J. Radiometry (David Teyssier) • Total Power Stability (100-200 spectra, ¾ WBS, 1s readout rate) B1-5: every 4 GHz B6-7: 52 freq/LO-band L1. IF Stability (LO-off, mixer biased at 8mV) • IF2 on, IF 1 off • IF2 on, IF 1 on and temperature stabilizing • IF2 on, IF 1 on temperature stabilized L2. System Stability (2 LO freq/band) • TP System Gain Stability • Load-Chop Differential System Stability • Internal Load Differential System Stability • Frequency Switching Differential Stability L3. Parametric Stability (2 stable, 2 unstable LO freq/band) • LO Standing Wave stability scan • Stability as a function of Vbias • Stability as a function of Ibias (change Plo) • Stability as a function of B-field • Stability as a function of Diplexer position Overview HIFI-ILT Stability Tests

  3. Overview HIFI-ILT Interactive Analyses • Standard HK (During Test Session) • Quick Look Analyses (QLA) During Test Session (night time) • -At start new measurement show WBS Comb, attenuation setting, illumination. • -Basic HK values such as bias, B-field, frequency (n. a. here), temperature etc. • -For each measurement (obsid) show T.P. vs time for the 4 WBS sub-bands • (for each sub-band take mean of all channels). 2 polarizations  2 plots, 8 curves. • -For each measurement (obsid) show TP vs time for HRS zero lag channel. • 2 polarizations  1 or 2 plots. • Keep track of possible bad scans (TP variation >= 5%). • -Record obsid of each stability measurement (table). This can be used in QIA • Quick IA (QIA). Day after Test Session to provide feedback to operators • -From the obsid stability table (QLA), batch-generate: • -A table with flagged total power vs time variations >= 5%. (can be a variable). • -Batch calculate for each passed obsid: • -Total power Allan variance for each (H+V) WBS & HRS channel • -Spectroscopic Allan variance for each (H+V) WBS & HRS channel (zero order baseline subtraction). • -Display in a 3x3 matrix for each obsid (WBS and HRS in separate pages): • -Time series of the average WBS level (H + V, 2 curves). • -Time series of room, cryostat, and spectrometers temperatures • -Averages bandpass vs. IF frequency (H + V, 2 curves). • -Normalized total power Allan variance for each sub-band and full spectrometer (V + H) • -Normalized spectroscopic Allan variance for each sub-band and full spectrometer (V + H) • -Difference spectrum of two subsequent 200s bins (H + V). This shows platforming. • -Color plot of normalized total power Allan variance for each spectrometer channel • - Calculate and Display for each spectrometer (WBS and HRS) • -Ta where radiometer noise equals drift noise (each sub band + total spectrometer) • -Ta’ for which the total noise exceeds twice the radiometer noise. • -Ta’’ for which the total noise exceeds 50% of the radiometer noise. (Compare with the theoretical variances.) • -Equivalent noise fluxuation bandwidth for each radiometer sub-band. • -Slope of the drift term (Beta) • -Display HK data such as bias, frequency, spectrometer settings • -Ability to write certain, or all graphs, to file.

  4. 1. Radiometery -Obtain TP stability alongside each Radiometry LO frequency setting. • 2. IF Stability -Verify amplitude stability of the IF system including that of the spectrometers. -Determine the influence of the environment (i.e. temperature). -Search for, and measure plat-forming effects spectrometers. -Characterize IF system stability with IF1 switched OFF (IF2 On), and IF1 warming up. • 3. System Stability -Verify 2 scientifically interesting LO frequencies per mixer band -Verify the internal Hot/Cold calibration load differential amplitude stability. -Determine the observing efficiency loss due to instability. -Search for plat forming effects, baseline offsets -Search for weak spurious line signals. • 4. Parametric Stability -Verify receiver stability at 2 stable, and two potentially unstable scientific interesting LO frequencies. -Determine the influence of the environment (i.e. temperature) on instrument stability. -Determine the observing efficiency loss due to instability. (Compute RMS noise level) -Understand the effect of the LO standing wave on the HIFI total power stability. Determine the free spectral range of the mixer-LO cavity. Verify that tuning to the peak of the standing wave is possible/practical. Note: There are two mixers, only one of the mixers can be tuned to the peak of the standing wave -Understand the effect of mixer bias voltage on the HIFI instrument total power stability. -Understand the effect of mixer bias current on the HIFI instrument total power stability. -Understand the effect of B-field on the HIFI instrument total power stability. -Understand the effect of diplexer position on the HIFI instrument total power stability.
