| Title | Proton pulse charge calculation algorithm in Beam Power Limiting System at Spallation Neutron Source |
| Authors |
|
| Abstract | A proton pulse charge calculation algorithm in the Beam Power Limiting System (BPLS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) was developed and implemented in an FPGA. The algorithm calculates one-minute running average of the pulse charges and issues a fault to the Personal Protection System (PPS) and the Machine Protection System (MPS) when a limit is reached. A bit-accurate model of the algorithm was first developed and tested in Matlab® and then implemented and simulated in VHDL using Vivado® design environment. Finally, the algorithm was verified on a µTCA-based hardware platform. |
