Abstract :
Advances in microwave technology and innovative ideas have enabled visualization of complex physics of the high temperature plasmas in magnetic fusion devices. ECE Imaging system becomes a powerful tool for MHD physics in various devices and the potential of the MIR system has been reassessed and a system design for KSTAR is in progress.
