In the present report, we justify the continuation of the current scanning strategy in order to obtain a sixth survey, allowing for better sensitivity and further “jackknife” (survey difference) tests. The fifth survey is already improving the estimates of the polarisation leakage for two of the LFI horns, and this improvement will continue with the sixth survey during the extension. In addition, we confirm the “deep rings” scanning strategy to improve mapping of the beams using radio sources, specifically Jupiter and the Crab Nebula. We propose to maintain the current spin rate: no other changes are foreseen, except the possibility to increase the sampling of some house-keeping data.ELETTRONICOenResearch reportFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_17 Instrumentation – telescopes, detectors and techniques
