MOPMB032 | A New Fault Recovery Mechanism for Superconducting Cavity Failure in C-ADS | cavity, hardware, space-charge, linac | 158 |
|
|||
For proton linear accelerators used in applications such as C-ADS, due to the nature of the operation, it is essential to have beam failures at the rate several orders of magnitude lower than usual performance of similar accelerators. A fault-tolerant mechanism should be mandatorily imposed in order to maintain short recovery time, high uptime and extremely low frequency of beam loss. This paper proposes an innovative and challenging way for compensation and rematch of cavity failure using fast electronic devices and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) instead of embedded computers to complete the computation of beam dynamics. Due to the high arithmetic-computing-speed, good portability and repeatability, it is possible to realize calculation and re-adjustment online. In order to achieve the goal of instantaneous compensation and rematch, an advanced hardware design methodology including high-level synthesis and an improved genetic algorithm will be used. | |||

Funding: Supported by the National Science Foundation of China 11575181, 11375178. And by the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities WK2310000046, WK2310000056 Bunch-by-bunch (BxB) beam current measurement is an important method to study filling pattern of injection and beam instability threshold for multi-bunch operation storage ring, also, necessary equipment for top-up injection. A high-speed high-precision ADC and FPGA are used to construct the bunch-by-bunch beam current measurement system. FPGA reads data from ADC, and transfer the data to PC via USB. A LabVIEW program is running on PC to process the data, and communicates with other accelerator equipment with EPICS by CA Lab. Besides the bunch-by-bunch beam current measurement, the BxB longitudinal tune is measured by the system, and other potential bunch-by-bunch beam diagnostics study could be done in future, like bunch-by-bunch beam life etc., to improve the performance of the storage ring of Hefei light source. |

|
|||
Funding: This work has been supported through KOMAC (Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex) operation fund of KAERI by MSIP (Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning) A 100 MeV proton linac of the Korea multi-purpose accelerator complex (KOMAC) has been operated for providing a proton beam to users. RF systems of two medium energy beam transports (MEBT) have been designed to improve a beam quality. An operating frequency of the MEBT RF system is 350 MHz, and the required RF power is 44 kW for MEBT-1 and 18 kW for MEBT-2. The RF duty is 9% (1.5 ms, 60 Hz), and an RF stability of ±1% in amplitude and ±1° in phase is required. The RF system includes a low-level RF (LLRF) control system, a solid state RF amplifier (SSPA) as a 60 kW SSPA for MEBT-1 and a 30 kW SSPA for MEBT-2, a coaxial circulator, and 3-1/8" coaxial line components. A RF power test to the MEBT has been performed with 4 kW SSPA before the full power operation. The configuration and high power test results of the MEBT RF system are presented in this paper. |

WEPOR010 | Recent Upgrades to the CERN SPS Wideband Intra-bunch Transverse Feedback Processor | feedback, controls, timing, operation | 2687 |
|
|||
In support of the CERN High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade program, a research and development effort has been underway to understand and develop feedback control techniques for mitigating transverse intra-bunch instabilities in the SPS driven by electron cloud and TMCI effects. These effects could be a limiting factor to overall machine performance. A result of this effort has been the development of a very wide band transverse feedback demonstration system. This system has been used for the last several years in machine development studies where we have demonstrated single-bunch stability control of low order intra-bunch modes. In continuation of these efforts, recent upgrades have been performed in all stages of the system, including the feedback processor itself. This paper discusses the upgrades specific to it, including the ability to process multiple proton bunches in the SPS; and also highlights future directions in the development effort. | |||

WEPOR033 | Progress in the Work on the Tuner Control System of the cERL at KEK | controls, LLRF, feedback, linac | 2742 |
|
|||
A compact energy recovery linac (cERL), which is a test machine for future 3 GeV ERL project, was constructed at KEK. Five superconducting (SC) cavities were installed in the injector and main linac of the cERL. The SC cavities in cERL are prone to detuning by disturbances such as microphonics. Therefore, a piezo-based tuner system was used to compensate for the detuning of the SC cavity in the cERL. We have proposed advanced control methods that aim at improving the performance of the cERL tuner systems. In this paper, we present the progress in our work on the cERL tuner systems. The preliminary results of the beam-commissioning are also presented. | |||

WEPOR039 | Development of 200 MHz Digital LLRF System for the 1 MeV/n RFQ at KOMAC | LLRF, controls, rfq, cavity | 2758 |
|
|||
KOMAC (Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex) has a plan to develop the multipurpose ion irradiation system. This system includes the ion source, LEBT, RFQ and MEBT systems to transport ion particles to the target. In particular, the RFQ (Radio Frequency Quadrupole) system should receive 200 MHz RF within 1% amplitude error stability. To supply stable 200 MHz RF signal to the RFQ cavity, the LLRF (Low-Level Radio Frequency) system should be controlled through a control system which implemented using commercial digital board. This 1 MeV/n RFQ LLRF system has a concept to minimize the number of the analog components for minimizing the control error. For this, the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) in the digital board will control the frequency of the output sinusoidal signal. In addition, this LLRF system applied the direct sampling, Non-IQ sampling, direct RF generation and fast IQ set update rate algorithm. In this presentation, the FPGA control logics of the LLRF digital board will be introduced. Also, the LLRF PI control logic test using 200 MHz dummy cavity will be described. | |||

|
|||
Based on system identification and DLQR methods, a self-adaptive power supply can be implemented by the new controller structure without any change in power main circuit. Now only some raw tests have been taken which show its stableness, but the State Space Digital Controlling may turned out to be with potential. It makes power supplies with different capability easy to interchange without any more effort on tuning their parameters according to their loads, and can be extended to accommodate MIMO systems. | |||

THPOY048 | NSLS-II Active Interlock System and Post-Mortem Architecture | timing, status, operation, hardware | 4214 |
|
|||
The NSLS-II at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) started the user beam service in early 2015, and is currently operating 13 of the insertion device (ID) and beamlines as well as constructing new beamlines. The fast machine protection consists of an active interlock system (AIS), beam position monitor (BPM), cell controller (CCs) and front-end (FE) systems. The AIS measures the electron beam envelop and the dumps the beam by turning off RF system, and then the diagnostic system provides the post-mortem data for an analysis of which system caused the beam dump and the machine status analysis. NSLS-II post-mortem system involves AIS, CCs, BPMs, radio frequency system (RFs), power supply systems (PSs) as well as the timing system. This paper describes the AIS architecture and PM performance for NSLS-II safe operations. | |||
