The development and investigation of laser interferometry concepts for performing precise length measurements at frequencies below 1Hz is the main topic of this thesis. These concepts are quintessential for space-based measurements of gravitational waves or the Earth gravity field. For the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) and future satellite geodesy missions, various interferometer types have been studied between 2014 and 2018 at the Albert Einstein Institute (AEI) in Hannover as a part of the work presented here. The first part of this thesis presents conceptual design studies of phase reference distribution systems (PRDSs) for LISA. The usage of Telescope Pointing is the baseline mechanism for the current LISA design and implies...
