The method of time-delay interferometry (TDI) is proposed to cancel the laser noise in space-borne gravitational-wave detectors. Among all different TDI combinations, most commonly used ones are orthogonal channels A, E, and T, where A E signal-sensitive T signal-insensitive. Meanwhile, for detection stochastic background, one needs introduce overlap reduction function characterize correlation between channels. For calculation function, it often convenient work low-frequency approximation,...

Weak-signal limit is often used in estimating stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) intensities. This approximation fails and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) can be much weaker when signals are loud compared to detector noise. In this work, we find that issue especially significant dealing with networks of detectors widely separated. For TianQin + LISA network, SNR estimated under weak-signal might off by as large an order magnitude. Contour plots over parameter spaces also...

This paper explores the detection capability of space-borne detectors to anisotropic stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) without relying on low-frequency approximation. To assess performance, we calculate power-law integrated sensitivity (PLIS) curve. Our results demonstrate that a single detector has limited capabilities in detecting multipole moments beyond monopole ($l=0$), quadrupole ($l=2$), and hexadecapole ($l=4$). However, when multiple are combined, presence pointing...
