In Nuclear Fusion external heating sources play a role of paramount relevance for the twofold role of plasma heating and instability suppression. The effectiveness of Electron Cyclotron (EC) waves in Tokamaks have been experimentally demonstrated since the early 80’s of the last century (see e. g. the pioneering work by R.M. Gilgenbach et al., 1980). Nowadays EC systems plays a pivotal role in magnetic fusion devices and their need in future experimental reactors is out of doubt. The physical reasons underlying these choices stems from the fact that electron cyclotron radiation can be coupled effectively to the plasma, producing a localized and controlled energy deposition. Within this framework an important tool has been provided by the el...
