3 7,3(0-893)0, Generally, LLRF system can be broken into sub-modules by functionality as shown in the figure below. The LLRF System can run well only if all sub-modules have the good performances. First of all, one should identify the tasks and challenges in each module. By the experience of other labs, for example, there are some: phase noise in Frequency Generation, drift in Phase Reference Distribution, noise and drift in Frequency Conversion, Lorentz detuning and microphonics in Cavity Field and Resonance Control, nonlinearity and noise in RF Control Hardware, and automated operation of large scale LLRF stations. ESS will suffer most of them, and probably some more: spoke cavity, longer pulse, higher current and larger scale. Therefore, it would be helpful to firstly investigate the solutions that have been taken in other labs and learn from them. Below I will introduce the development of LLRF in other labs. 2

4 .'&'/012',3),%34'("+56 LLRF R&D in FLASH is evolved from the development in TTF (Tesla Test Facility) RF digital control system started about 15 years ago, and will continue to be developed for the new European XFEL in DESY. Their achievements and expertise in pulsed SRF control are well known in the LLRF community, and more important they are well documented in TESLA Reports. SNS LLRF system has been going through the accelerator commissioning and operation over 5 year, and therefore the experience and lessons achieved will be good reference for us. There are a lot in common between SNS and ESS. JPARC Linac LLRF System s experience during their 181MeV linac development (RFQ, Bunch, Rebunch Cavities, DTL, SDTL) and 400MeV linac upgrade (adding ACS) is good reference for our normal-conducting cavity s LLRF R&D. These three lab s LLRF parameters and sub modules implemented are listed in table1. The rests are the labs whose LLRF systems are not very similar with ESS (CERN), or under development (Fermilab, LBNL), or at the beginning (MYRRHA). The sub modules realized in these labs are given in table 2. CERN LHC has 8 superconducting cavities (signal cell, CW mode, ring) per ring. Although different with ESS (pulse, multi-cell, linac), it is still valuable to look through their RF feed back, Klystron Polar loop and the Tuner loop. Moreover, there is Open Hardware Repository at CERN, a place for collaborating on open hardware designs, much valuable information. And there is also other digital LLRF developing at CERN, such as LEIR, Linac 4 LLRF [4~7, CERN] In Fermilab, there are going on different kinds of the LLRF system for ILC, Project X, HITS, NML [13, Fermilab], based on the hardware platform MFC, newly developed in Fermilab (33 channels). And the spoke cavities might be taken in Project X (already having the test stand for spoke cavities). LBNL has developed the FPGA programming for SNS (many new ideas in algorithms), and developed the 4 th generation evaluation LLRF board to test concepts for ILC with low noise (Open verilog codes and hardware designs Then the next generation board design and fabrication will be carried out. MYRRHA has a similar linac with ESS (same frequencies, normal conducting, spoke cavity, low beta, high beat), and desires more extreme reliability, with some LLRF prototypes under development in Orsay. And more interest is their proposal of fault tolerance LLRF. The other more information about the LLRF developments worldwide can be found in the LLRF Workshop held every two years since 2005: LLRF Workshop 2005, LLRF Workshop 2007, LLRF Workshop 2009, LLRF Workshop 2011, it is coming in October. 3

9 FK1'()',9'6+,-"'660,6 FLASH: Diagnostics for beam energy at many points along the linac are always a great help for setting up the RF, Slow drifts of resonance frequency was an issue High closed loop bandwidth (30kHz - 60KHz), G>150. [Brian Chase, Lessons Learned from the 9 ma Test ] SNS: The piezo tuner has not used for some failures. To compensate, about 15% more RF power is consumed to achieve the designed phase & amp stability [11]. The high voltage converter modulator system is below the design, so that beam pulse length only reaches 0.8 ms in a 60Hz production. [11,17,18] Acceleration gradients of several cavities are limited by HOM couplers;[11,17,18] Temperature dependences in downconvert; [6] Klystron circulator mismatch [16]; Modulator droop (causing phase margin degrade) and 20kHz ripple [16,19]; JPARC: Temperature dependency of the PLL-VCXO was larger than the expectation by multiplying 12 MHz reference frequency to get RF, LO. Instead, in new design the 312-MHz LO is directly distributed as reference [5]. There are also HVPS ripples induced klystron amplitude droop and phase modulation, but they were controlled down to the required stability accuracy [8]. 8

10 >02'FK1'()',9'),7?FC Good hardware platform is essential to make design easy. DC/DC power convert 120kHz switching frequency noise and harmonics; 120 khz and harmonics DAC output clock jitter dependence on frequency; Downconvert and upconvert on the same board with low isolation; Strong interference between RF and low IF Loop bandwidth (try to lower delay, try simple algorithms); >822+(L By dividing the LLRF system into sub-modules, it would be a bit clearer to identify the tasks and challenges in LLRF system. It is valuable to learn that how the other labs dealt with these problems and then find out the proper solutions for ESS. But there are still some challenges: 1.Work near the saturation of klystron to improve efficiency (80% or higher? about 60% in existing accelerators) 2. Automation of Operation for larger scale LLRF stations (at ESS, ~200 stations) 3. Field and resonance control (feedback, feedforward, tuner, etc. optimization for perturbations suppression) 4. Availability and reliability. 5. Spoke cavity. 6. Longer pulse, higher current, higher power 9
