Abstract

The paper presents a concept of the ECE diagnostic for the TRT facility and estimates the achievable measurement parameters in the baseline scenario. The target spectral region for the diagnostic corresponds to the first harmonic of the ECR frequency in ordinary polarization (O1) and the second harmonic in extraordinary polarization (X2). It is proposed to carry out measurements from the low-field side along two lines of sight: radial and toroidally oblique. The accessible spectral region in terms of the normalized radial coordinate is approximately estimated as –0.9 to 0.9 and –0.1 to 0.9. It is proposed to shape the input wave beam by means of a quasi-optical focusing system that provides a transverse size of the resolved region of approximately 3—5 cm for O1 and 1.2—3 cm for X2. For measurements, it is proposed to use Fourier transform spectrometers with a time resolution of about 10 ms and multichannel heterodyne receivers with a time resolution of about 1 μs. The minimum radial size of the resolved region is estimated to be 3—5 cm for O1 and 2—4 cm for X2, depending on the coordinate.
