BLCS 1: modulation of beam phase in the SPS Injection segment LHC is operated with optimal detuning Before injection The peak power after injection 6
BLCS 2: flattened phase in the injection segment Injection segment Detuning in the LHC is a free parameter and phase is flattened to avoid phase errors For different segments we have: 7

General case Injection segment Similarly to BLCS 2, detuning in the LHC and phase derivative in the injection segment are free parameters For different segments we have: 9
Conclusions • Different beam loading compensation schemes were analyzed and compared. • The half-detuning scheme is most simplest and optimized scheme for beam loading compensation during injection process in synchrotrons. • For other schemes a newly injected train produces strong power transients that finally require the same peak power as for the halfdetuning scheme. 10
