A digital low-level radio-frequency system R&D for a 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavity

To test and verify the performance of the digital low-level radio-frequency (LLRF) and tuner system designed by the IHEP RF group, an experimental platform with a retired KEK 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavity is set up. A radio-frequency (RF) field is established successfully in the cavity and the frequency...

Summary:To test and verify the performance of the digital low-level radio-frequency (LLRF) and tuner system designed by the IHEP RF group, an experimental platform with a retired KEK 1.3 GHz nine-cell cavity is set up. A radio-frequency (RF) field is established successfully in the cavity and the frequency of the cavity is locked by the tuner in ±0.5°(about ±1.2 kHz) at room temperature. The digital LLRF system performs well in a five-hour experiment, and the results show that the system achieves field stability at amplitude 〈0.1% (peak to peak) and phase 〈0.1° (peak to peak). This index satisfies the requirements of the International Linear Collider (ILC), and this paper describes this closed-loop experiment of the LLRF system.
