Abstract :
The ICANT code computes self-consistently the surface current distribution on a 3D antenna model radiating in a plasma or vacuum and has been used to analyze the coupling properties of various antenna models. In this work it is used to assess near-fields generated by different versions of the TCABR (Tokamak Chauffage Alfvén wave heating experiment in Brazil) antenna as well as coupling properties of the TEXTOR tokamak in Forshungszentrum Jülich. Two different strap models planned for the TCABR antenna are shown to be practically equivalent in terms of maximum electric field. Textor coupling calculations are close to experimental values.
