10. MOTIVATION Reduces # X-ray cavities from 4 >2 which reduces ring impedance Adjustable coupling to minimize IR ring, Booster rf power req’d. Lower static cryo-losses Frees up 6m straight ! R&D roadmap for power coupler R&D needs: RF transmitter Coupler development Coupler test stand Cryo-test facility Cavity prototype FOR NSLS-II: Dual antennae coupler design most appealing ! 250kW/coupler has been demonstrated, 500kW/cavity low technical risk. Adjustable coupling allows better matching for low power requirements of Booster, IR rings: need only one coupler: lower cost Road to upgrade: Add HOM to IR ring 2nd coupler port?

13. Low Level RF Emphasis to date has been on cavity choices and high power systems which have immediate impact on beam dynamics, ring layout, and have longer lead times. Unlike the cavities and high power systems the LLRF is likely to be upgraded throughout the life of the project. Take advantage of the flexibilty of new digital RF systems and direct IQ modulation at 500 and 2998MHz. Unlike the high power systems LLRF is not available commercially, and skills need to be in-house. Digital RF requires additional skill set (e.g., the rf programmer)

14. Conclusions RF requirements for NSLS-II can be met with existing technology, often from commercial sources Development of high power and/or dual antennae coupler would reduce number of cavities from 4 to 2 in X-ray ring, reducing impedance, freeing up ID straight. Allows more efficient low power operation in Booster, IR rings. Upgradeable, not locked in to existing performance. Need to continue work on cavity modeling and impedance calculations, analysis of bunch lengthening with harmonic RF in the near term, and later on systems analysis and LLRF
