| The real-time orbit feedback system foreseen for the LHC will be an essential component for reliable and safe machine operation. A test setup including a number of beam position monitors equipped with the LHC acquisition and readout system have been installed in the SPS ring to perform prototyping work on such an orbit feedback. A closed loop digital feedback was implemented and tested with LHC beams on the SPS during the 2003 machine run. The feedback loop was tested successfully at up to 100 Hz. The performance of the feedback loop and of its constituents will be described. |
