Abstract
Power measurement is necessary for an electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) system. The directional coupler method has been put forward to monitor high-power microwave from gyrotrons in real time. A multi-hole directional coupler has been designed and manufactured for the 105 GHz/500 kW ECRH system on the J-TEXT tokamak. During the design process, we established the relationships between hole parameters and coupling characteristics based on the multi-hole coupling method and small-hole coupling theory. High-power tests have been carried out. The results indicated the reasonability of the theoretical design and practicality of the fabricated directional coupler. Sources of test errors have been discussed in detail, and the influences of spurious modes on the directional couplers have been emphatically analyzed.
