The LLRF control system for the J-PARC RCS plays an important role in acceleration of high intensity beams. The original system had been working well without significant problems for more than a decade, however, the long term maintenance became difficult due to the obsolesce of the old FPGAs in the system. Therefore we developed and deployed the next-generation LLRF control system. The next-generation system is based on the modern platform, MTCA.4. The most important new function of the system is the multiharmonic vector rf voltage control feedback, which compensate the heavy beam loading in the wideband cavity better than the feedforward at the beam intensity of the design beam power, 1MW. The commissioning results are reported. The next-generation system has been successfully deployed.

A stable and precise LLRF (Low Level RF) control system is indispensable for acceleration of high intensity proton beam in the J-PARC RCS. The original LLRF control system had been operated without major problems for more than ten years since the start of operation of the RCS, while maintenance of the system became difficult due to the obsolesce of the old FPGAs in the modules. We developed and installed the next-generation LLRF control system based on MTCA.4. The key function of the system is the multiharmonic vector rf voltage control feedback. We describe the system overview and the commissioning results. The performance of the beam loading compensation is significantly improved.
