Abstract
This paper describes diverse schematic configurations serving the optical control of small-amplitude mechanical oscillations’ magnitude. Based on the analysis, it is proposed, that a heterodyned optical reference beam interferometer be used for the control of superficial oscillations, and the acousto-optic light modulator be used to carry out the frequency shift.

A configuration employing this method has been described, with its expected properties analyzed. Characteristics of interference between Gaussian beams has also been studied.
