Abstract :
The design of the optical (q.o.) RF output system for the first industrial prototype of the European 170 GHz, 2 MW, CW coaxial cavity gyrotron for electron cyclotron heating and current drive in ITER has been verified at low power level. Results of measurements with a high quality TE34,19-mode generator are in good agreement with the design calculation and is presented in the following paper
