	The CLIC (Compact LInear Collider) is based on two beam concept where a high current drive beam provides the energy needed for acceleration of the main beam. The CLIC drive beam accelerator starts with a high current injector using a sophisticated sub-harmonic bunching system. This paper will focus on the design of the Sub Harmonic Bunchers (SHBs) the first RF components of the injector. A backward traveling wave structure has been optimized for this task. It will be shown also how to avoid asymmetrical fields inside the coupler cells and how to compensate beam loading by changing the phase velocity in comparison to the beam velocity.
