  This report describes the improvement of the Beam Position Monitoring (BPM) systems for the 1.2 GeV storage ring of the Siam Photon Source (SPS). The systematic studies and investigations for improving the machine performance, and storage ring BPM system has been carried out in the last few years. Some major technical problems have been found and solved. The inefficiency and unreliability of the original BPM system were also identified. They are mainly caused due to the use of low quality signal and improper installation of cables. Detailed descriptions of the replacement with the higher quality (lower loss and better interference shielding) BPM cables and implementation of a separated cable trays for the BPM cables, as well as the work on BPM electronic board calibration will be described. The measurement results before and after the improvement of the BPM system will also be presented.

  Photon beam position monitors (PBPM) have been designed and installed in the beamline front-ends at Siam Photon Source (SPS). Up till now, these blade-type PBPMs have been successfully installed at three bending magnet and an insertion device (planar undulator) beamlines. Its performance has been tested and compared with that of the electron beam position monitor. The achieved resolution is found to be better than 3 μm. The obtained PBPM data proved to be extremely invaluable in the investigation of the sources of the observed beam positional fluctuation, and for compensation of the orbit perturbation caused by undulator gap change. In this paper, the details of the calibration procedure will be presented. Various factors affecting reading of the signal such as back scattering effect, choice of bias voltage, and temperature variation have been investigated and the results will be discussed herewith.

  Data acquisition and processing system has been developed for the Siam Photon Source storage ring BPM system in order to improve monitoring and logging performances. BPM readout, i.e. scanning of BPM electrode voltage outputs and subsequently converting to X-Y position values, is now performed by an upgraded Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with higher bit resolution (16-bit) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Moving averaging is then performed on the obtained BPM data utilizing a LabVIEW code to reduce background noise during on-line measurement. All data is then stored on a dedicated computer serving as a central data logging system, which can be remotely accessed via a network communication link. In this report, details of the new setup will be presented, and comparison will be made between the performance of the new and previous setups, together with suggestions on further improvements.
