Abstract :
This paper describes the strategy and architecture set-up of the measurement stage of a control system designed for the control of particular helical magnetic perturbation in a Tokamak. The measurement system is capable to filter out, in real time, the magnetic perturbation with a desired space spectrum and to estimated the amplitude and position of the perturbation source in the plasma
