Active Control of the Current Density Profile in JET

A successful demonstration of real-time, model-based control of the current density profile has been made in JET. The safety factor profile was reconstructed using magnetic and polarimetric signals. Various predefined q-profile targets have been reached - in the least square approximation - using Lower Hybrid Current Drive (LHCD) as the only actuator, with a feedback control loop using the measurements from five fixed normalised radii.
