4. PART 1 Requirement and Capability

5. The Origin of RF Phase Control The particle energy spread is effected by phase error according the following equation,  E/E  1/2  (  /2+  n /N) 2 where  is angular spread of particle distribution,  n is the algebraic sum of the individual phasing errors of accelerating sections and N is the number of accelerating sections. RF phase control aims at keeping the phase error  n within its designated range.

6. Phase Requirement of BEPCII The microwave of 2856MHz is used in BEPCII injector to boost the energy of electrons and positrons. The limitation of maximum deviation of  2  from optimum phasing location is put on the RF phasing system by general design of BEPCII injector. |Phase error|≤ 2 

7. RF Phase decomposition Given a point on beam line, if the optimum drive phase of microwave may be acquired by adjust the corresponding phase shifter, then the drive phase at this point may be decomposed as  =  0 +  s (t)+  q (t) where  0 is the optimum drive phase,  s (t) is phase drift caused by all sorts of real physical devices and varies slowly,  q (t) is random item called phase noise also caused by physical devices and varies quickly.

8. RF Phase Control Capability RF phasing system can only work out phase drift item of  s (t) through measurement and dynamically eliminate the effect of  s (t). Estimation theory will be used in RF phasing control algorithms.

15. Four levels of RF Phasing System Configuration The top level includes the large capacity data recorder for mid- term and long-term data collection, and a global computer for data analysis, global task control and task interface to other exterior systems. The second level is a LAN connecting global level with local control level situated at each individual klystron station by optic fiber communication links. The third level is the local control level distributed with similar devices at each individual klystron station along the klystron gallery. Its main parts are PAD and VME units. The bottom level is optic fiber phase reference line established as a phase measurement benchmark for PAD at each klystron station.
