  SOLEIL and DIAMOND are two third-generation light sources in construction in France and in Great Britain respectively. SOLEIL is scheduled to deliver its first photons to its users in 2006 and DIAMOND in 2007. This talk will present the beam diagnostic systems of both projects with emphasizing technological novelties and the instruments that are essential to their performances: BPM system, profile monitors and feedback systems.  
 
IT07 Digital Signal Processing in Beam Instrumentation: Latest Trends and Typical Applications diagnostics, instrumentation, controls, betatron, closed-orbit 30

  During the last decade digital signal processing has found its way into the beam instrumentation arena, to become an essential part of several beam diagnostic systems. In fact, the recent impressive hardware performance improvement made it possible for functions once exclusively accomplished by analogue methods, to be enhanced by the application of an alternative digital approach. This is true to a point that the conversion to digital processing has become inevitable. Factors that favour crossing the border towards digital implementation are obviously speed as well as precision, signal-to-noise ratio, dynamic range, stability of components and configuration capability, together with the availability of powerful and user-friendly development tools. Improvement in A/D conversion and processing speed has allowed successfully developing digital feedback loops and on-line diagnostics. The ascent of such digital techniques generated a concurrent and parallel interest in digital signal processing algorithms and in the use of the associated digital hardware components. Current trends in beam diagnostics include using Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), digital receivers and fast digitizers. The talk reviews latest developments and illustrates selected digital applications, relevant to the beam diagnostic area.

  Due to the unavailability of commercial ADC and DAC boards, first commissioning of the transverse multi bunch feedback was done in the last year using loaned equipment from Sincrotrone Trieste. In order to remedy that situation, development of ADC and DAC VME boards was started. The boards do a 500 MS/s data conversion with an 8 bit resolution. The ADC and DAC circuits are separate modules containing their own one to four de-/multiplexing electronic reducing the data rate to 125 MS/sec. The following stage being a common design to both ADC and DAC allows data recording and play back using on board RAM and allows freely programmable multiplexing/demultiplexing ratios of one to five to one to twelve. The digital data streams flow via Front Panel Digital Ports (FPDP). A special design criterion were low system latencies ensuring a high feedback efficiency. Apart from lab tests, we report on full feedback system test and show the feedback performance in the transverse and longitudinal planes.  
 
PT06 Dynamic X-Y Crosstalk / Aliasing Errors of Multiplexing BPMs instrumentation, diagnostics, pick-up, monitoring, operational-performance, controls 181

  Multiplexing Beam Position Monitors (BPM) are widely used for their simplicity and inherent drift cancellation property. These systems successively feed the signals of (typically four RF) pickups through one single detector channel. The beam position is calculated from the demultiplexed (base band) signal. However, as shown by this contribution, transverse beam motion results in positional aliasing errors due to the finite multiplexing frequency. Fast horizontal motion, for example, can alias into an apparent, slow vertical position change. A thorough analysis is presented and the impact of essential parameters such as the multiplexing rate and the scanning pattern/sequence of classical 4-button pickups is discussed.

  The cooler synchrotron COSY delivers unpolarized and polarized protons and deuterons in the momentum range 300 MeV/c up to 3.65 GeV/c. Electron cooling at injection level and stochastic cooling covering the range from 1.5 GeV/c up to maximum momentum are available to prepare high precision beams for internal as well as for external experiments in hadron physics. In case of electron cooled beam the intensity is limited by transverse instabilities. The major losses are due to the vertical coherent beam oscillations. To damp these instabilities a transverse feedback system is under construction. First results with a simple feedback system are presented. Due to the feedback system operation the intensity and lifetime of the electron cooled proton beam at injection energy could be significantly increased. Measurements in frequency and time domain illustrate the performance of the system.
