|
||
Funding: Work is supported by the joint high energy physics research program of Japan-USA, and by FNAL, operated by Fermi Research Alliance LLC under contract #DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the US Dept. of Energy. A beam position monitor (BPM) upgrade at the KEK Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) damping ring has been accomplished, carried out by a KEK/FNAL/SLAC collaboration under the umbrella of the global ILC R&D effort. The upgrade consists of a high resolution, high reproducibility read-out system, based on analog and digital down-conversion techniques, digital signal processing, and also implements a new automatic gain error correction schema. The technical concept and realization as well as results of beam studies are presented. |
