3 Introduction to the Controller Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 3

4 Use cases: RF Field Controller Maintain amplitude and phase stability of the cavity field Support lossless beam transfer when the machine starts Provide arbitrary RF pulse shape for system calibration Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 4

5 Feedback and Feed Forward Feedback: compensate the random errors (phase jitter caused by klystron high voltage jitter, microphonics, bunch charge fluctuations) Feed forward: compensate the repetitive errors (Lorenz force detuning) Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 5

6 Cavity Field Regulation (Simulation) Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 6

7 Control Scheme Selection Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 7

8 I/Q Control VS A&P Control A&P Control: control the amplitude and phase of the cavity field separately I/Q Control: control the I and Q components of the cavity field separately Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 8

9 I/Q Control VS A&P Control I/Q control Set point can cover the four quadrants including zero Good for the control of large errors and large beam loading Coupling between I/Q channels if the loop phase is wrong Noise of I/Q detector more than Schottky diode (amplitude detector) A&P control Less noise for amplitude measurement No loop phase problem If there is large phase error, the cavity output may be driven to wrong quadrants Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 9

10 Vector Sum Control VS Individual Cavity Control For vector sum control: Benefit: Significant cost savings Maintenance reduced Less units to be controlled Disadvantage: Calibration of vector-sum challenging Can not operate each cavity at individual limit RF power distribution must be precise (power, phase) By-passing of individual cavities more difficult Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 10

11 Analog Control VS Digital Control Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 11

12 Analog Control VS Digital Control Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 12

13 Analog Control VS Digital Control Analog control Minimum delay and lower noise Simplicity and straightforward Better diagnostics with analog scopes Less resources for R&D Digital control Flexibility for arbitrary set points Digital I/Q detection for measurement of RF field vector and forward and reflected wave Robust and flexible feedback algorithms (optimal controller) Feed forward control can be added easily Build in diagnostics Need for automated operation such as fault recovery and changing beam energy High level applications support (example: automated cavity tuning) Exception handling (example: recovery from cavity quench) Less drift Introduces additional delays Higher noise due to ADCs More sensitive to EMI Component lifetime limited Aging Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 13

15 GDR Control VS SEL Control Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 15

16 GDR GDR Control VS SEL Control Better for pulsed operation if the detuning is small Fast predictable rise time Better to perform vector sum control Power up can be hampered by Lorentz force detuning SEL Tracks the resonant frequency of cavity Good if the cavity resonance frequency changes over many bandwidth (~10) over turn-on Possible to run many cavities at high field for conditioning of cavities and couplers independently Inherently stable with amplitude Unaffected by Lorentz force detuning at power up Start up may be slow Possible to excite other pass band and high order mode (HOM) Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 16

17 Positive feedback Self Excited Loop Y ( jω) = 1+ G G( jω) ( jω) H ( jω) R ( jω) When at ω₀ G( jω ) H ( jω ) = The closed loop gain is infinite at ω₀, so, even there is no input, the system has finite output - Oscillator Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 17

18 Self Excited Loop Block diagram of self excited loop Condition for starting up the SEL: Loop gain > 1 Loop phase = 2nπ, n=0,1,2, Condition for steady state of the SEL: Loop gain = 1 (guaranteed by the limiter) Loop phase = 2nπ, n=0,1,2, When the loop phase is changed, the working frequency will change in order to meet the phase condition for SEL Stefan Simrock, Zheqiao Geng 4th LC School, Huairou, Beijing, China, 2009 LLRF &HPRF 18
