Distributed RF Scheme (DRFS) was proposed for International Linear Collider (ILC) as a new HLRF scheme. After the ITRP recommendation, ILC technology was chosen to be superconducting technology and basic design was discussed and reported in the RDR on 2007. Aiming for the cost reduction, there have been proposed many ideas and summarized as SB2009 proposal. DRFS is the one of these proposals, and it is linked to the single tunnel plan. DRFS employs many small klystrons (750kW output power) which feed power to two superconducting cavities. 13 modulating anode klystrons are operated by a DC power supply and a modulating anode pulser. All required components are installed in a tunnel and therefore this scheme is a complete single tunnel layout. DRFS was proposed in 2008 and thereafter it has been discussed in web-ex meeting and GDE workshop. In this conference, concept and detailed design of DRFS are presented including the availability and operability. In order to show the feasibility of DRFS, KEK has a plan of demonstration employing the DRFS with two klystrons in the S1 global in the end of 2010. Presenter also discussed pros and cons comparing with the competing proposed scheme.
