Transmission line model
Review: F. Caspers in Handbook of Accelerator Physics and Engineering (‘98)
DUT + Coaxial Wire = TEM transmission line (with distributed parameters)
The DUT coupling impedance is modeled as a series impedance of an ideal REFerence line.
Coupling impedance is obtained from the REF and DUT characteristic impedances and propagation constants.
Transmission line are characterized via S-parameters with Vector Network Analysers (transmission measurements preferred).
In the framework of the transmission line model, the DUT impedance can be computed from S-parameters.

Resonance @ 30 MHz is a transverse resonance and it may be related to slightly offset or not properly tightened wire.
Resonance @ 17.3 MHz (700 Ohm) is due to the capacitor and the inductance created by the strip and the outer support. To dump it a ferrite ring was set (agreement between measurement and simulations).

RF measurements vs simulation: longitudinal impedance measurements
Longitudinal coupling impedance bench measurements are reasonably well understood but not always “easy” and the technique is “well established”.With modern simulation codes, one can derive directly the coupling impedance or simulate the bench set-up with wire, virtually for any structure.
Comparison with numerical results are very useful to drive and to interpret the measurements.
Simulations and RF measurements usually agree well.
Simulation may require simplified DUT model which should reproduce the main DUT electromagnetic features.
Evaluation of coupling impedance from measured or simulated wire method results require the same cautions.

Transverse impedance measurements
from improved log formula
Two parallel wires are stretched across the DUT (odd mode).
Traditional approach: Nassibian-Sacherer (1977), ...
wire spacing (~10% of the DUT radius)
Panowsky-Wentzel
At low frequency: >> DUT length
Lumped element formula
The transverse impedance is proportional (at a given frequency) to the change of longitudinal impedance due to lateral displacement of the beam in the plane under consideration (H or V): Panowsky-Wentzel theorem.
Two wires/loop

Single displaced wire or two wires? In the two wires bench set-up only “dipole field components”: no longitudinal electric field components on axis (metallic image plane between wires).
Panowsky-Wentzel theoremVariation of the longitudinal impedance as a function of displacement for a single wire.
Some devices exhibit a strong azimuthal asymmetry in the image current distribution due to variation of the conductivity (e.g. ferrite in kickers) or to the cross section shape. In order to get a more complete view of the transverse kick on the beam, it may be useful to characterize the device with a single wire. H. Tsutsui, SL-Note-2002-034 AP

RF measurements vs simulation: transverse impedance measurements
Schematic model of DUT feasible for simulations should notintroduce non physical symmetries or approximation.
New measurement procedures oriented to particular DUTs are being proposed (e.g. SNS kicker measurements, H. Hahn 2004).
Transverse impedance measurement technique are more delicate particularly for asymmetric devices (TW kickers like SPS MKE).
Numerical simulations are necessary to control measurement procedure.

Shunt impedance and perturbationmeasurements
Wire perturbs longitudinal cavity modes, e.g. lowering the Q and detuning the frequency: coaxial wire set-ups are not recommended for cavity measurements (only special cases, mainly transverse).
Accelerating/deflecting cavities
Resonance frequency Quality factor Shunt impedance
The field in a cavity can be “sampled” by introducing a perturbing object and measuring the change in resonant frequency.
Bead Pull measurement
The object must be so small that the field do not vary significantly over its largest linear dimension: it is a perturbation method.
Shaped beads are used to enhance perturbation and give directional selectivity
![Page 35: RF Impedance measurements versus simulations Andrea Mostacci Università di Roma “La Sapienza”, LNF-INFN.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e3f5503460f94b2f856/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The measurement technique Slater theorem
Only longitudinal electric field
Form factor can be calculated for ellipsoid or calibrated in known fields (e.g. TM0n0 of a pillbox cavity).
The frequency variation can be measured by the variation of the phase at the unperturbed resonant frequency (very precise initial tuning needed!).
Transmission measurement
It allows visualizing the field shape on the VNA screen

RF measurements vs simulations: resonant cavities
For resonant structure accurate measurements are “easy”, provided understanding of bench set-up details (e.g. glue effect in 11 GHz measurements).
Bead pull measurements are used to see if the DUT fits the design specifications and still required for tuning multiple cell cavities.
Q measurement on a cavity has precision better than 1%.
R/Q is usually done with computer codes, measurements are oftenonly confirmations.
Very good agreement between measurement and simulations.

Conclusions
Numerical simulations often deal with simplified models: i.e. you must have some insight in the problem.
The most common methods of measuring coupling impedance: wire method (long. and trans. impedance) and bead pull method (resonant structures).
Impedance can be computed by numerical RF simulators or directly or by simulating the wire measurement.
With a reasonable and accurate modeling, a longitudinal impedance simulation usually reproduce experimental results (and viceversa).Transverse impedance requires a much deeper control of both simulations and bench measurements, particularly for some special devices.Impedances of resonant modes are well reproduced by simulation with high reliability.
There are several codes usable to estimate coupling impedances (MAFIA, HFSS, GDFDL, MWstudio, ABCI, OSCAR2D, Superfish …).

Acknowledgements I thank F. Ruggiero, B. Spataro and L. Palumbo who gave me the opportunity of giving this talk.
F. Caspers (CERN), L. Palumbo (Un. Roma “La Sapienza”), B. Spataro (INFN) and H. Tsutsui (Sumitomo) helped me with fruitful discussions.
Also D. Alesini, V. Lollo, A. Bacci, V. Chimenti (INFN) are involved in the design and the prototyping of the 11 GHz cavity for SPARC.
The EPA experiment was organized and carried out also by L. Vos, D. Brandt and L. Rinolfi (CERN).
Students of our university laboratory substantially helped in setting up the bead-pull measurement for SPARC cavities.
Thank you for your attention
Most that the work presented here has been done at CERN in SL-AP and PS-RF groups.
