The recirculating linear accelerator at CEBAF presents unique problems in beam position measurement. As many as five beams with different energies may be simultaneously in the linac. Modulation of the beam intensity by pseudorandom pulse sequences offers a simple, effective method for distinguishing between the individual beamlets.
