AbstractIn the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), a new AC dipole excitation functionality has been implemented with the aid of the Beam-Based Feedback and Diagnostic Systems. This feature facilitates precise and systematic optics measurements, presenting a robust alternative to the conventional single-kick excitation method. Comparative studies of AC dipole and single-kick excitations have been performed, employing linear and nonlinear optics measurements. Experimental results highlight the reliability and accuracy of the AC dipole implementation, underscoring its potential for integration in standard SPS operations for routine optics measurements.
