  • For space-borne gravitational wave detection missions based on the heterodyne interferometry principle, tilt-to-length (TTL) coupling noise is an important optical noise source, significantly influencing the accuracy of the measurement system. This paper presents a method for analyzing TTL coupling noise under the joint influence of multiple factors. An equivalent simulated optical bench for the test mass interferometer was designed, and Gaussian beam tracing was adopted to simulate beam propagation. By simulating the interference signal, it can analyze the impact of various factors on the TTL coupling noise, including positional, beam parameters, detector parameters, and signal definition factors. On this basis, a random parameter space composed of multiple influential factors was constructed within a range satisfying the analysis requirement, and the corresponding simulation results from random sampling were evaluated via variance-based global sensitivity analysis. The calculated results of the main and total effect indexes show that the test mass rotation angle and the piston effect -lateral significantly influence the TTL coupling noise in the test mass interferometer. The analysis provides a qualitative reference for designing and optimizing space-borne laser interferometry systems.
