| contents | The use of non-invasive sensors & systems to measure particle beam characteristics is a crucial part of modern accelerator control systems due to their ability to return real time passive measurements without impacting the beam quality. Simulations, which can predict these sensors' behaviour and performance under anticipated accelerator conditions, are valuable tools to ensure confidence in the sensors' functionality prior to a physical bench test. This paper details the design, testing, and results of two sensor models developed using CST Studio Suite software. One model is an elliptical, large-aperture beam position monitor (BPM) for which vertical & horizontal position signal linearity was analyzed. The second model is an AC current transformer (ACCT) beam current monitor (BCM), which was used to search for potential fault cases within the BCM and beam pipe flange gaps. Fermilab Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II) accelerator beam conditions were applied, and special focus is given to the discovery of linearity variations within the BPM as well as the use of frequency domain techniques in the BCM fault case analyses. |
