Two designs of high resolution beam position monitor, based on a radiofrequency re-entrant cavity, are developed at CEA/Saclay. The first monitor is developed in the framework of the European CARE/SRF program. It is designed to work at cryogenic temperature, in a clean environment and get a high resolution with the possibility to perform bunch to bunch measurements. Two prototypes with a large aperture (78 mm) are installed in the Free electron LASer in Hamburg (FLASH), at DESY. The other design with an aperture of 18 mm and a large frequency separation between monopole and dipole modes, as well as a low loop exposure to the electric fields is developed for the Clic Test Facility (CTF3) probe beam CALIFES at CERN. It is operated in single bunch and multi-bunches modes. This poster presents the mechanical and signal processing designs of both systems.

To assess the performances of the system (Table 2), a model is elaborated with Mathcad.
- RF re-entrant cavity model is a resonant RLC circuit
- The transfer functions of different devices composing the signal processing are determined by the S parameters measured with a network analyzer.
Table 2. CALIFES BPM RMS resolution
Re-entrant Cavity BPM Coaxial re-entrant cavities have been chosen for the beam orbit measurement because of
their mechanical simplicity and excellent resolution.
Passing through the cavity, the beam excites electromagnetic fields (resonant modes), which are coupled by four feedthroughs to the outside.
Main radio-frequency modes excited by the beam in the cavity:- the monopole mode signal is proportional to beam intensity and does not depend on
the beam position - the dipole mode signal is proportional to the distance of the beam from the centre
axis of the monitor.
BPM designed for the CTF3 probe beam
A design, with a large frequency separation between monopole and dipole modes, as well as a low loop exposure to the electric fields, has been developed (Fig. 1) for the CTF3 probe beam CALIFES.
Six BPMs will be installed on the CTF3 probe beam CALIFES.
Dipole mode frequency chosen around 5.997 GHz for a resonant operation with 64 bunches. The mechanical dimension Ø 28.8 mm will be adjusted to have the dipole mode frequency close to 5.997 GHz.
The resonant cavity was designed with the software HFSS (Ansoft). The RF measurements presented in the Table 1

Spring 2006, the re-entrant BPM (Fig. 4) was installed in a warm part in the FLASH linac (Fig. 5) at DESY.

The cross_talk is quite high, it was measured in laboratory better than 28 dB on each BPM.

Signal processing uses a single stage downconversion (Fig. 2).
- Isolation of the hybrids can be adjusted by phase shifters to reject the monopole mode
