This thesis describes the physics and computational aspects of an
end-to-end simulator to predict the performance of a Space-based
Far Infrared Interferometer. The present thesis also includes, the
science capabilities and instrumental state-of-the art. The latter
is the ambitious next step which the Far-Infrared Astrophysical
community needs to take to improve in anyway on the results of the
most recent and current space telescopes in this wavelength region.
This thesis outlines the requirements involved in such a mission
and describes the most promising technique to capture most of the
astrophysical information by combining spectroscopy to spatial
interferometer. The simulation of such a system is extremely
complex requiring multiple Fourier transforms each of which is
subject to instrument non-idealities and appropriate optimization
techniques. As a conclusion, the thesis provides an example of the
basic performance achievable with such an instrument when targeting
a young star formation region.
