نبذة مختصرة : Energy beam position monitors (EBPM) based on grounded co-planar waveguide (GCPW) transmission lines have been designed for installation in the dispersive sections of the bunch compressor chicanes at the European XFEL. In combination with beam position monitors at the entrance and exit of the bunch compressor chicanes, measurements of the beam energy with single bunch resolution are feasible. The EBPM consists of transversely mounted stripline pickups in a rectangular beam pipe section. The signal detection for the measurement of the phases of the pulses at each end of the pickups is based on the standard down-conversion and phase detection scheme used for the low-level RF-system. A measurement resolution within the lower micrometer range can be achieved for input signal reflections at the pickup of less than -25 dB at 3 GHz. In this paper, simulation results of a novel pickup geometry utilized with GCPW pickup structures and optimized transitions to perpendicular mounted coaxial connectors are presented. The simulation results exhibit small reflection coefficients with reflected signal components having less than 2% of the peak voltage signal.
