  Project X is a high intensity proton facility being developed to support the intensity frontier physics program over the next two decades at Fermilab. The Reference Design is based on a continuous wave (CW) superconducting 3 GeV linac providing up to 1 and 3 MW of beam power at 1 and 3 GeV respectively, while a superconducting pulsed linac provides acceleration of roughly 4.3% of the beam delivered from the CW linac to the 8 GeV injection energy of the existing Recycler/Main Injector complex. In this paper we present the results of simulation of longitudinal beam dynamics and Low Level RF (LLRF) control system in the pulsed linac, operated for long pulses in presence of errors and cavity detuning for different RF configurations and settings, and set the requirements for the LLRF necessary to fulfill the specifications of the design.
