Abstract: The discoveries of gravitational wave standard sirens are expected to be significant during the LSST era. We want to determine the expected contribution of such discoveries to our cosmology analyses by quantifying the constraining power of this probe. For this analysis, we investigate to mitigate selection effects like sensitivity threshold of the gravitational wave detectors, depth of the electromagnetic searches and viewing angle dependency of the Kilonova emission and how this affect the accuracy of Hubble constant measurements. Considering all these factors, we plan to determine a recommendation for the DESC collaboration that can inform the subsequent follow up strategies and the Target of Opportunity (ToO) searches.
