TH5RFP076 | Prototype Beam Position and Phase Monitoring Electronics for LANSCE | 3621 |
|
||
Funding: US Department of Energy Future improvements to the Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center (LANSCE) include new Beam position and phase measuring systems that operate at 201.25 to 805 MHz. An effort is underway to build and test prototype electronics for these applications. We plan to use direct down conversion to 35 to 115 MHz followed by COTS FPGA hardware for in-phase and quadrature-phase (I/Q) signal processing. Self- calibration and system diagnostics circuits will be included. We are reporting on the status of these efforts. |
