Summary:
The Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) is a fusion research facility aiming at the steady-state operation and advanced plasma experiment. To support these purposes, a high power lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) will be used to control the plasma current profile. This paper presents the KSTAR LHCD antenna system, which is a phased-array waveguide antenna launching waves to any direction by changing the phase difference between the grilled waveguides.
