A Sub-Harmonic Arc Detection (SHAD) system has been installed on the transmission lines feeding the JET ICRF ITER-like-Antenna (ILA). Along with the commissioning of SHAD, extensive measurements of the RF field in the transmission lines were carried-out using fast sampling (125 Mb/s) oscilloscopes. The system is described, and the SHAD ability to d…

RF-sheath induced heat loads are identified from infrared thermography measurements on Tore Supra ITER-like prototype and JET A2 antennae, and are quantified by fitting thermal calculations. Using a simple scaling law assessed experimentally, the estimated heat fluxes are then extrapolated to the ITER ICRF launcher delivering 20MW RF power for seve…

Using the JET A2 ICRF antennas [1], experiments were carried out to assess the performance of three different dipole phasing configurations relevant for the operation of the ICRF antenna in ITER. Three similar discharges with dipole, "symmetric dipole" and "super dipole" phasings were compared. In the "super dipole" case, higher coupling was confir…
