Description

We have developed a new RF measurement and on-line data processing techniques aimed at to do an in-situ unloaded Qo measurement on each Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavity at CEBAF without a beam loading. Based on previous developed RF measurement formulas and the I/Q data processing by linear regression process and analytical correction on the mismatch of drive circuit, calibration on the cross-talk of directional coupler, we have improved the coupled circuit’s loaded Q, cavity detune and coupling betas' measurement accuracy. By an independent beam-based shunt impedance measurement by the CEBAF recirculation arc spectrometry, we should be able to reduce the Q0 measurement error to be less than 10%. We are going to report our in-situ measurement and data analysis progress starting with this technique at the Vertical Test Area (VTA) and later at CEBAF, so the result comparison with standard RF calibration/decay method, superconducting wire calorimetric method as well as the RF heat replacement method will be presented.
