Description

To reliably and repeatably validate the electromagnetic behavior of the pickup prototypes designed for the Elettra 2.0 button-type beam position monitors, two different radio-frequency test fixtures have been developed. The first test fixture, based on a coaxial-line design that emulates the TEM excitation generated by a relativistic beam, allows to measure the transmission performance of the pickups up to 16 GHz. The second test fixture, employing an antenna-launcher design, extends the measurement range up to 40 GHz. This paper presents a comparison between measured and simulated data, with particular focus on the electromagnetic validation of the first 16 prototypes manufactured using glass as the dielectric material.
