MODULATION• Amplitude and phase data seem to fit, so we should use polar data
instead of cartesian I-Q data, but practical concerns make I-Q data a better choice.
• Manipulating amplitude and phase of a carrier sine would be expensive, difficult and not as flexible as a circuit that uses I-Q waveforms. We control amplitude and phase of an RF carrier by operating the amplitudes of separate I and Q inputs.

• ASTA (Accelerating Structure Test Area) hosts two 50 MW Klystrons, supplying up to 500 MW @ 64 ns (and almost 300 MW @ 260 ns); 90 MW if delay lines are not used.
• A relative phase shift of either 0 or 180 degrees allows to direct the power towards a specific hybrid output.
POWER SUPPLY

• SLED II uses low-loss resonant lines (yielding flat-topped output pulses), 26 ft long, and mode transducers. 1 RTT (Round Trip Time) = 132 ns; we use 2 RTT.
• One compressed-pulse-time from the end, the phase of the input is reversed, so that the field reflected from the coupling interface adds constructively to the field emitted from the charged cavity; then the stored energy is extracted.
• We worked with 8 sub-intervals, 132 ns each.
PULSE COMPRESSION

• Non-idealities in the klystrons outputs, as well as in the pulse compressor, make the pulses not constant both in amplitude and in phase.
• As a result, the system produces pulses affected by ripple: this is deemed to be responsible of a 30 % loss in terms of efficiency (presently, efficiency level is 60%)
• Objective: developing an algorithm for point-by-point correction of the waveform which the system is initially fed.
