Some general considerations about the requirements and the architecture of the whole system will be developed. The aim or the ELFA (Electron Laser Facility) experiment is to study the physics of a single pass FEL amplifier operating in the high gain Compton regime using a short electron pulse beam. The experimental purpose is the production of high peak power (0.3-1 GW) of microwave radiation, with a basic wavelength of λ_r=3 mm, and the possibility of tuning from λ_r= 1 cm to λ_r=0.1 mm. In order to achieve this goal an electron beam of very high current (400 A) in short pulses (6 cm) and with a maximum energy around 10 MeV will be injected into the wiggler midplane.
