Twenty high power klystrons are installed in the J-PARC linac. The requirements for the rf field stabilities are ±1% in amplitude and ±1 deg. in phase during a 500 us flat-top. In order to satisfy these requirements, we adopt the digital feedback and feed-forward system with FPGAs and a commercial DSP board. The FPGAs (Virtex-II 2000) enable a fast PI control for a vector sum of two cavity fields. The measured stability during rf pulse was ±0.15% in amplitude and ±0.15 deg in phase. The tuner control was successively operated by a way of the DSP board by measuring the phase difference between the cavity input wave and the cavity field. Beam loading effects were emulated using a beam-loading test box. By proper feed-forward, the rf stability was less than ±0.3% and ±.15 deg. |
