Tilt-to-Length Coupling Analysis of an Off-Axis Optical Bench Design for NGGM
A new off-axis optical design alternative to that of the GRACE Follow-on mission for future NGGM missions is considered. In place of the triple-mirror assembly of the GRACE Follow-on mission, a laser retro-reflector is instead generated by means of lens ...

Tilt-to-length coupling, a non-constant systematic error source caused by satellite attitude variations, has been observed in the laser ranging signals of the GRACE Follow-On mission. This error can be corrected by certain calibration maneuvers performed

Tilt-to-length coupling in LISA Pathfinder: A data analysis
We present a study of the tilt-to-length coupling noise during the LISA Pathfinder mission and how it depended on the system’s alignment. Tilt-to-length coupling noise is the unwanted coupling of angular and lateral spacecraft or test mass motion into the primary interferometric displacement readout.

Misalignment Decoupling and Tilt-to-Length Suppression in a Micro-Actuated Beam Steering Mechanism via Nonlinear Cyclic Modulation [PDF]
Tilt-to-length (TTL) coupling is a critical noise source in high-precision interferometric measurements, particularly in systems involving angular actuation and beam steering.

Iatrogenic coronal-sagittal coupling driven by a 12.4° rotational mismatch in manual total knee arthroplasty and precise decoupling with robotic assistance: a radiographic retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background Achieving precise reconstruction of both the coronal and sagittal planes is pivotal in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, conventional manual TKA (M-TKA) may induce an unintended “coronal-sagittal coupling” effect, where adjustments in ...

Method to Remove Tilt-to-Length Coupling Caused by Interference of Flat-Top Beam and Gaussian Beam [PDF]
We discuss the tilt-to-length (TTL) coupling noise caused by interference between a flat-top beam and a Gaussian beam. Several physical models are presented to research the effects of non-diffracted and diffracted beams on TTL noise.

Abstract Tilt-to-length (TTL) coupling is a technical term for the cross-coupling of angular or lateral jitter into an interferometric phase signal. It is an important noise source in precision interferometers and originates either from changes in the optical path lengths or from wavefront and clipping effects.
