The research activities related to Ad-RCNPS in China is described. SOme basic features of the system had been drawn from our conceptual study. Examples of accelerator driven fast netron reactor and accelerator driven heavy water reactor were given. In order to reduce the beam intensity required, a fast-thermal coupled system is proposed. In this system the inner fast assembly not only may be used as a MA burner, but also as an amplifier of the external neutron number for the outer thermal assembly. A verification facility is proposed to construct in ext ten years. The facility is consists of a 150MeV, 3mA low energy Linac and a light water moderated sub-critical reactor with a changeable core structure. This facility will be a multi-used one, such as material irradiation, eutron nuclear reaction etc.
