Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyse the performance output of the klystron modulator, which is based on the observation of the output voltage and current performance of the linear-accelerator klystron modulator; we modify the operating-point parameters based on those results or assess whether the klystron needs to be replaced. For this purpose, we collect the observation data of the klystron performance; we then develop a program to adjust automatically the high-voltage setting of the klystron to ensure that the storage current maintains beam current 360 mA in the top-up mode operation.
