The SwissFEL Injector Test Facility is destined for demonstrating electron beam parameters that are suitable for FEL operation. Of particular interest is the on-line measurement of longitudinal phase space properties, as this provides insight into the bunch compression process. The spectral distribution of diffraction radiation offers a robust way to assess bunch length and longitudinal profile. The bunch length at the SwissFEL Injector Test Facility can be varied by changing the photocathode laser. Diffraction radiation is emitted as the electron bunches pass through a hole in a titanium foil. The emitted Terahertz radiation has been simulated by the code THz Transport, and the propagation to the detectors has been modeled.

Several sources of jitter and drift affect the longitudinal phase space dynamics of SwissFEL. To evaluate how drifts can be identified and corrected through appropriate diagnostics and beam-based feedbacks, the response matrix of possible longitudinal diagnostics on laser and RF stability is modeled. To this intent, photocathode laser intensity, laser arrival time, RF phases and RF amplitudes are individually varied in an ELEGANT model, and the expected response of on-line diagnostics on the simulated bunches is evaluated. By comparing the slope of the response to the expected resolution of the instrumentation, suitable monitors can be selected for a feedback.
