Electromagnetic analysis of beams for the ITER ECH Upper Launcher

Four Electron Cyclotron Upper Launchers (UL) will be used in ITER to inject power at 170 GHz, mainly for suppression of MHD instabilities, especially Neoclassical Tearing Modes. For each UL, the quasi-optical section injecting millimetre waves into the plasma consists of eight be...
