Abstract :
The absolute plasma density fluctuation strength and its dependence on the fluctuation wave number is determined using Doppler reflectometry as plasma diagnostic. Finite difference time domain code IPF-FD3D is used to investigate the dependence of the returned power from the various plasma conditions.
