Drive tests with beam and simulation studies have shown insufficient kick strength in the horizontal plane for the desired damping rate. We determined that the main causes were the short length of the original stripline and the low beta-x function at the installation location. A new two-blade stripline was designed and installed in a high beta-x location of the storage ring. sddsoptimize, a multi-objective optimization, was employed to optimize the geometry of the stripline in order to achieve both impedance matching and high-shuntimpedance. Beam-based measurements showed an increase in kick strength from the original 0.25 μrad to 0.78 μrad. The stripline has been in operation for more than one year. This report describes the simulation, optimization, and the performance of the new stripline.

The APS storage ring has four striplines that are designed for tune measurement and feedback applications: two of them are part of the tune measurement system, and the other two are used as pickup and driver for the transverse feedback system. Drive tests with beam and simulation studies have shown insufficient kick strength in the horizontal plane for the desired damping rate. We determined that the main causes were the short length of the original stripline and the low beta-x function at the installation location. A new two-blade stripline was designed and installed in a high beta-x location of the storage ring. sddsoptimize, a multi-objective optimization, was employed to optimize the geometry of the stripline in order to achieve both impedance matching and high-shuntimpedance. Beam-based measurements showed an increase in kick strength from the original 0.25 μrad to 0.78 μrad. The stripline has been in operation for more than one year. This report describes the simulation, optimization, and the performance of the new stripline.
