Study of the Crosstalk Evaluation for Cavity BPM

Abstract: In order to pursue high-precision beam position measurements for the free-electron laser (FEL) facilities, cavity beam position monitor (CBPM) is employed to measure the transverse position which can meet the requirement of position resolution with a sub-micrometer or even nanometer scale. But for the pill-box cavity BPM, the possible existed crosstalk between the cavities will have effects on the accurate measurement of beam position. Two methods, the principle component analysis (PCA) method and the method of harmonic analysis, are proposed in this paper to evaluate the crosstalk based on the experiment dates from the low quality CBPM prototype in Shanghai Deep ultraviolet free electron laser (SDUV-FEL) facility and high quality CBPM in Dalian Coherent Light Source (DCLS), respectively. The results demonstrated that these two methods are feasible in evaluating the crosstalk between the cavities.
