AB  - In the Main Ring (MR) of Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), a residual-gas ionization profile monitor (IPM) is used to measure bunched beam profiles. After injection, the beam widths of the first ~20 bunched beams are analysed to correct the Quadruple oscillation. While only a few dozen profiles are required for this correction, the present IPM auto-matically measures all bunched beams, more than 2·10⁶ bunches from injection to the extraction, because the present IPM operates using DC. This system is unde-sirable due to the limited lifetime of the Micro Channel Plate (MCP) detector; the more particles the MCP senses, the more it loses gain flatness and thus lifetime. To improve this situation, a gated IPM system has been developed, in which the High Voltage (HV) is operated in pulse mode. Results of performance analysis of a new HV power supply, improvement of the electrodes, and particle-tracking simulation considering the space-charge-electric field of the bunched beam are de-scribed.
