Optical Position Sensor for the VWS Tolerances and possibilities Jose Luis Sirvent Jonathan Emery Student Meeting 12– February -2012
1.Transmission • Loss of -3dB: • Horizontal plane: Disk-Fiber +-0.25mm • Vertical plane: Fiber-Fiber misalignment 60um • Angular tolerance: 0.5 deg • Signal received ~ 0.37%
1.Transmission • Signal appearance • 30Khz • 0.0422 mWpp
2.Reflection • Loss of -3dB: • Horizontal plane: Disk-Fiber +-0.3mm • Vertical plane: Width of the slides • Angular tolerance ~ +-2.5 deg • Signal received ~ 0.58%
3.Focusing • 3.1 Focuser with commercial components
3.Focusing • Loss of -3dB: • Horizontal plane: Fiber-Lens 7mm -+ 250um • Horizontal plane: Lens-Disk 2.23mm -+60um (Too small?) • Vertical plane: Slits width • Angular tolerance ~ +-2deg • Signal received ~ 11% (Improvement > Factor 10!!)
3.Focusing • Improvement of tolerances: • Defocus Bigger spot size • Horizontal Plane: Fiber - Lens 4.29mm +- ? • Horizontal Plane: Lens – Disk 4.35mm +- 200um • Vertical plane ~ +-2deg • Signal received ~ 11% 4.35 -+ 0.2 mm
3.Focusing • Fit with sinusoid
5.Tolerances Table Focuser 800mVpp Transmission (50mVpp) Reflection (80mVpp)

6.Accuracy Improvements • Disk D=14cm 8796 slots of 50um • Actual accuracy: 710 uRad. • Specifications: 25 uRad. • Needed Improvement of factor 30. • How to reach specifications (Interpolation): • 1.Offline Processing (Software requirements) • 2.Online Processing (Possible by hardware)
6.Accuracy Improvements • Disk D=14cm 8796 slots of 50um • Actual accuracy: 710 uRad. • Specifications: 25 uRad. • Needed Improvement of factor 30. • How to reach specifications (Interpolation): • 1.Offline Processing (Software requirements) • 2.Online Processing (Possible by hardware)
6.Accuracy Improvements • 2.Online Processing • 1. Interpolation with previous cycle reference • Source of errors: Bad measurement in previous cycle = interpolations errors in next. • Allways there will be a delay of 0.5 cycle. • Possible improvement: Histeresys when crosing zero.
6.Accuracy Improvements • 2.Online Processing • 2. Interpolation of Sin-Cos Encoders: • Two fibers if working with Focuser (displaced 90deg) • No errors or delay: Relationship between signals • Variations in speed applied immediately. • Interpolation Unit + Quadrature decoder
