Abstract

In the following the validation of the time-dependent CP violation measurements prior to the unblinding of the data distributions is described. The validation comprises the measurements of lifetimes of simulated signal decays, linearity tests, the measurements on large Monte Carlo simulation samples of inclusive decays and ensemble tests.
