19. Correlation between mixer and diode signals 08.07.201419 Case 1: The RF power deviation linearly depends on the phase deviation, for example, like in the case of a pure high voltage jitter: Then the correlation is given by: Case 2: There is only RF power deviations, which induces jitter on both signals: Case 3: case 1+ case 2 Then the correlation depends on the phase shift and ratio k 1 to k 2. Case 4: case 1+ case 2 + measurement noise Then the correlation depends on the phase shift, k 1, k 2 and noise levels.

Part 2: Measurement of the RF Jitter: – Mixers give significantly better estimates of RF power jitter; – The power jitter measurements are limited by ADC sensitivities. Part 3: Correlation between mixer and diode signals: – Measured PKI05 jitter is induced by the klystron voltage jitter; – MKS06 measured RF jitter is primary given by the diode measurement noise; – MKS02 and MKS03 measured RF jitters are limited by low ADC sensitivity for diode signals.
