LISA, the future space-based gravitational wave observatory, relies on the cancellation of laser frequency noise for its success. Time-delay interferometry (TDI) is the standard technique, and PCI provides a comprehensive and efficient way to analyze LISA data.
The future space-based gravitational wave observatory laser interferometer space antenna (LISA) will consist of a constellation of three spacecraft in a triangular constellation, connected by laser interferometers with 2.5 million-kilometer arms. Among other challenges, the success of the mission strongly depends on the quality of the cancellation of laser frequency noise, whose power lies 8 orders of magnitude above the gravitational signal. The standard technique to perform noise removal is time-delay interferometry (TDI). TDI constructs linear combinations of delayed phasemeter measurements tailored to cancel laser noise terms. Previous work has demonstrated the relationship between TDI and principal component analysis (PCA). We build on this idea to develop an extension of TDI based on a model likelihood that directly depends on the phasemeter measurements. Assuming stationary Gaussian noise, we decompose the measurement covariance using PCA in the frequency domain. We obtain a comprehensive and compact framework that we call PCI for principal component interferometry and show that it provides an optimal description of the LISA data analysis problem.
