We inspect the loss cone effect on the power coupling in the previously developed radio frequency(RF)-heating model1 for Hanbit magnetic mirror device. The plasma conductivity tensor is expressed by the mirror ratio and anisotropy factors and the dependence of these loss cone parameters on the plasma resistance is presented as the result of numerical calculations in Hanbit discharge conditions.
