In CLIC very tight tolerances exist for the phase and amplitude stability of the main and drive beam. In this paper we present the status of the CLIC beam phase and amplitude stabilisation concept. We specify the resulting tolerances for the beam and technical equipment and compare to first measurements.

The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) is being built and commissioned by an international collaboration in order to test the feasibility of the proposed Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) two-beam acceleration scheme. The monitoring and control of the bunch length throughout the CTF3 complex is important since this affects the efficiency and the stability of the RF power production process. Bunch length diagnostics therefore form an essential component of the beam instrumentation at CTF3. This paper presents and compares longitudinal profile measurements based on transverse RF deflectors, Streak camera and non-destructive microwave spectrometry techniques.
