Abstract A compact X-band correction cavity chain (CC) has been successfully designed, fabricated and high power tested for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) project. The CC consists of eight spherical cavities and four polarizers, and each spherical cavity has a $Q_0$ of 45 000 and a diameter of 7 cm. The compact CC can correct a decaying pulse shape generated by a storage cavity without need of low efficiency pulse modulation or a solution based on long delay lines. A flattop output with small ripples can be obtained if the CC and the storage cavity are matched. Experiments of the CC with a barrel open cavity (BOC) were conducted on the XBOX2 test facility at CERN, and the high power results match the theoretical calculations. The appliance of the CC only reduces the pulse compression efficiency by 6% relatively if the transmission attenuation is ignored.
