Abstract

The Ion Cyclotron Heating and Current Drive (IC H & CD) system for ITER will provide Radio frequency (RF) heating and current drive to the ITER plasma. This system is designed to provide 20 MW into the plasma using frequencies in the range of 40 MHz to 55 MHz, which could be upgraded to 40 MW in future. This paper presents the recent development of the IC H&CD system configuration in the ITER Tokamak complex & auxiliary buildings with developed interfaces.
