contents Time-delay interferometry (TDI) is essential for space-based gravitational wave (GW) missions to effectively suppress laser frequency noise and achieve targeting sensitivity. The principle of the TDI is to synthesize multiple laser link measurements between spacecraft and create virtual equal-arm interferometry. This process blends instrumental noises and tunes the response function to GW, yielding data characterized by TDI combinations. Extracting signals requires modeling GW signals under TDI operations in the frequency domain. In this work, we introduce a versatile framework, SATDI, which integrates simulation and analysis for TDI. The simulation aims to implement TDI to instrumental noises and GW signals, investigate influential factors in noise suppressions, and explore GW characterizations across different TDI configurations. The analysis component focuses on developing robust algorithms for modeling TDI responses to extract GWs and accurately determine source parameters. LISA is selected as the representative space mission to demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework. We simulate and analyze data containing GW signals from massive black hole binary coalescence, examining data from both first-generation and second-generation TDI Michelson configurations. The results not only validate the framework but also illustrate the influence of different factors on parameter estimation.
