Abstract
Abstract Digital low-level radio-frequency (LLRF) systems are used at the compact energy recovery linac (cERL) test facility to stabilize the accelerating field inside the radio frequency (RF) cavities. Proportional and integral feedback controllers are implemented in the LLRF system to suppress the various disturbances in the cavities. At cERL, the typical disturbances include microphonics detuning and high-voltage power supply (HVPS) ripples. These two types of disturbances are reflected in the sum of sinusoidal fluctuations in the RF phase. Recently, a real-time narrow-band active noise control (ANC) approach which aims to reject the microphonics detuning of less than several dozen Hz, was proved to be effective in cavity resonance control. We extend this ANC method to the LLRF field control to suppress the RF ripples caused by the HVPS. In this paper, we present our experience of applying the ANC algorithm to the LLRF system of the cERL facility at KEK. We confirmed that high frequency ripples of up to 20 kHz can be well compensated by the ANC method during the cERL beam-commissioning.
