We have measured and corrected chromatic X-Y coupling at an interaction point to improve the luminosity of KEKB. We have measured the beam position of betatron oscillations induced by the kicker using turn-by-turn beam position monitors. A phase space structure reconstructed by the beam position provides us not only the Twiss parameters but also information regarding X-Y coupling. We have also determined chromatic X-Y coupling using the measured X-Y coupling at each momentum deviation from the designed beam energy. Skew sextupole magnets are used to correct the chromatic X-Y coupling.
