| Popis: | This paper presents the current status of the WEST TWA antenna, its mock-up and a possible extrapolation to DEMO. The updated WEST TWA design has a reduced antenna length and features feeding and mechanical support from a single vessel port. A mock-up of the WEST TWA antenna was designed in 2019, manufactured during 2020 and installed in the TITAN test facility at the beginning of 2021. The results of the mock-up at low and high power, its diagnostic system and the prospects are explained. Extensions towards a TWA antenna for WEST and a possible TWA system for the future DEMO tokamak reactor are briefly discussed. |
