To be revised shortly! ---------- Currently working on characterizing and canceling phase noise induced by fiber. ---------- == Possible Alternative Locking Schemes == 1. Green light for the arms injected via the ETMs. 1. Use the other polarization for the arms. 1. Frequency shifted sub-carrier injected through the ETMs or through POX/POY.
