Abstract :
Summary form only given. Active plasma control in IGNITEX was studied numerically with the CMS and PROTEUS codes. The most appropriate PF (poloidal field) coils and sensors for plasma control were identified and active control procedures were defined for the IGNITEX experiment. Possible vertical and horizontal plasma motions were shown to be readily controllable with the proposed internal PF magnet coils. Power supply characteristics required to obtain a stable system were determined
