Abstract
Quasi-optical notch filters are employed to protect plasma imaging arrays from stray radiation from high power electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) sources. A new imaging arrangement permits stacking of multiple filters to maximize ECRH rejection. Simulations indicate that a stack of three filters can provide a notch depth of >60 dB at 140 GHz, and retain this high rejection over an incident angle range of plusmn8deg.
