MOPP009	Retrieving Beam Current Waveforms from ACCT Output Using Experimental Response Function for Use in Long Pulse Accelerators	experiment, distributed, timing, simulation	85
	Y. Hirata, J. Franco Campos, A. Kasugai QST, Aomori, Japan
	Current transformers (ACCT/DCCT) are used as non-interceptive means of beam current measurement in many accelerators. In the case of long pulse to CW accelerators for fusion neutron sources such as IFMIF, A-FNS, etc., current measurement using current transformers for pulses with around 10-100 ms or longer suffer such problems as drooping and the measurement accuracy is deteriorated. So, improving the accuracy for long pulse beams is highly required. We have proposed a method for retrieving the beam currents from the ACCT output using the transfer function obtainable from simple experiments. It was confirmed from numerical calculation that beam currents longer than a second could be theoretically retrieved. The effects of associated circuits and cables such as stray capacitance, inductance and magnetic materials nearby are inherently included in the transfer function. We are working for implementing this method into FPGA. For calculation convenience, the transfer function is converted into a form of impulse function and the convolution with the digitized ACCT output is to be carried out to retrieve the beam current. The theory, algorithm and design will be discussed. Y. Hirata, et al., IEEE Trans. Plasma Sci., Vol. 46 (2018), pp. 2272.*

MOPP033	Preliminary Design of Mu2E Spill Regulation System (SRS)	controls, extraction, proton, LLRF	177
	M.A. Ibrahim, E. Cullerton, J.S. Diamond, K.S. Martin, P.S. Prieto, V.E. Scarpine, P. Varghese Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359. Direct µ->e conversion requires resonant extraction of a stream of pulsed beam, comprised of short micro-bunches (pulses) from the Delivery ring (DR) to the Mu2e target. Experimental needs and radiation protection apply strict requirements on the beam quality control and regulation of the spill. The objective of the Spill Regulation System (SRS) is to maintain the intensity uniformity of a stream of ~25K pulses as 10¹² protons are extracted at 590.08kHz over a 43msec spill period. To meet the specified performance, two regulation elements will be driven simultaneously: a family of three zero-harmonic quadrupoles (tune ramp quads) and a RF Knock-Out (RFKO) system. The SRS will use two separate control loops to control each regulation element simultaneously. It will be critical to coordinate the SRS¿ processes within the machine cycle and within each spill interval. The SRS has been designed to have a total Gain-Bandwidth product of 10KHz, which can be used to mitigate several sources of ripple in the spill profile.

TUPP003	A Common Diagnostic Platform for Elettra 2.0 and FERMI	cavity, controls, diagnostics, Ethernet	280

	Elettra 2.0 is the project of upgrading the current synchrotron light source to a low emittance machine. In this framework, various components of diagnostics have to be refurbished due to the obsolescence of the same or due to the tight requirements of the new accelerator. In this paper we present a high performance FPGA-based (Altera/Intel Arria 10) digital board developed internally, capable of hosting two FMC modules, equipped with DDR3 ram and 10 Gb/s Ethernet links. The presence of the FMC connectors allows a flexible use of the board: various configurations of A/D and D/A converters (different number of channels, resolution, sampling rate) can be obtained, also with various I/O ports for trigger and synchronisation. These features make it applicable as a base platform for various applications not only for Elettra (electron and photon BPMs, DLLRF systems, etc.) but also for Fermi (cavity BPMs, bunch arrival monitor, link stabiliser). The peripherals on board have been fully debugged, and probably a new version with a SoC (System on Chip) will be released in the next future.

	L.W. Lai, Y.B. Leng SSRF, Shanghai, People’s Republic of China
	A CW hard X-ray FEL is under construction in SSRF, which pulse rate is designed to 1MHz. A new high-speed sampling BPM signal processor is under development to meet the high performance requirements of beam position measurement system. The processor¿s sampling rate can be up to 500MHz, and beam position information of each bunch (1MHz rate) can be retrieved with the power of FPGA. Time stamp is aligned with the position data for offline analysis. The processor is designed to be a common signal processing platform for beam diagnostics. The first application is cavity BPM, and other applications, including button BPM, stripline BPM, and even wire scanner processor will be developed based on this platform. At the same time, a RF direct sampling processor is designed for cavity BPM signal processing. This novel technology will greatly simplify the cavity BPM electronic system, and make the system design more efficient and more flexible.

	We have developed a new button-BPM readout electronics based on the MTCA.4 standard for the low-emittance upgrade of SPring-8 []. Requirements for the BPM system are a high single-pass BPM resolution of better than 100 µm for a 100 pC injected bunch to achieve first-turn steering in the commissioning of the upgraded ring and a highly stable COD BPM within 5 µm error for 1 month to maintain the optical axis of brilliant x-rays for users []. We designed an rf front-end rear transition module (RTM) having band-pass filters, low-noise amplifiers, step attenuators, and calibration tone generators. The rf signal is detected by a 16-bit 370 MSPS high-speed digitizer advanced mezzanine card (AMC) developed for the new low-level rf system of SPring-8 [*]. The firmware of the FPGA on the digitizer AMC was newly developed to implement various functions of the BPM system. We evaluated the readout system at a laboratory and then tested at the present SPring-8 storage ring with a prototype BPM head for the SPring-8 upgrade. We confirmed that the new readout system satisfies the requirements for the single-pass BPM resolution and the COD BPM stability.
