Ray Tracing Study on Top ECCD Launch in KSTAR

The current drive efficiency of electron cyclotron (EC) wave is typically low compared with other RF and neutral beam heating system in tokamak. It is known that EC current drive by outboard launch suffers from low current drive efficiency due to electron trapping. However, the heating and current d...
