Abstract

We discuss the use of step-tuneable gyrotrons in present day and future tokamak devices. It is shown that with a two-frequency system, the performance of the planned ITER ECCD system, using the present launcher designs, could be greatly enhanced. With step-tuneable gyrotrons, it should be possible to use fixed launchers without any steering at all.
