摘要
The microwave reflectometry system on ASDEX Upgrade measures density profiles tin broadband swept operation) and plasma fluctuations (fixed-frequency operation) both at the high-field side (HFS) and low-field side (LFS). Densities up to 6.5 x 10(19) m(-3) can be probed. We analyse the evolution of turbulence at the LH transition and during the ELMy phase of H-mode discharges. The detailed density profile evolution during type I ELMs is resolved and profile oscillations associated with ELM precursors are studied.
