| Abstract |
In this paper, a unique low level radio frequency (LLRF) controller designed for a multi-harmonic buncher (MHB) is presented. Different than conventional designs, the single LLRF output contains three RF frequencies (f1, f2 = 2*f1, f3 = 3*f1) and is fed to a wide band amplifier driving the MHB. The challenge is while driving f1, due to the non-linearity of the amplifier, the f2 and f3 terms will also be generated and will couple into the control of these two modes. Hence an active cancellation algorithm is used to suppress the nonlinear effect of the amplifier. It is demonstrated in a test that the designed LLRF is able to control the amplitude and phase of the three modes in-dependently.
