    Abstract:

    Microwave imaging reflectometry (MIR) system and electron cyclotron emission imaging (ECEI) system are under development for the simultaneous reconstruction of the electron density and temperature fluctuation structures in the Large Helical Device (LHD). The MIR observes three-dimensional structure of disturbed cutoff surfaces by using the two-dimensionally distributed horn-antenna mixer array (HMA) of 5 × 7 channels in combination with the simultaneous projection of microwaves with four different frequency components (60.410, 61.808, 63.008 and 64.610 GHz). The ECEI is designed to observe two-dimensional structure of electron temperature by detecting second-harmonic ECE at 97–107 GHz with the one-dimensional HMA (7 channels) in the common optics with MIR system. Both the MIR and the ECEI are realized by the HMA and the band-pass filter (BPF) arrays, which are fabricated by micro-strip-line technique at low-cost.
