Popis: Users of time-resolving experiments at 3rd generation synchrotron light sources deem online bunch length and filling pattern monitoring as an important real-time diagnostic. We developed an on-line monitoring system that can measure bunch lengths and filling pattern using a photodiode, a wideband pre-amplifier, and a sampling digitizer. Two different methods were evaluated to reconstruct the bunch lengths: Gaussian deconvolution method as an approximation scheme and Fourier analysis as a method to restore the original signal by using the power transmission characteristics of the electronic devices in the system, including a bias-tee, a wideband amplifier, cables, and the photodiode. A bunch lengthening experiment has been conducted to compare and verify the results of those two methods of the photodiode and the result of the streak camera images by changing the overall gap voltage of the superconducting RF cavities. In this paper, we elaborate upon the said photodiode-based measurement techniques, and present the experimental results.
