As concerns over growing energy needs persist, yet another state is reconsidering nuclear power. A piece of legislation is currently progressing through Oregon’s legislature that would direct the Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE) to conduct a study to assess the feasibility of deploying new power reactors in the state.

The capability of measurement of the power transfer of a fast wave in the ion cyclotron resonance frequency range through the tokamak plasma edge has been shown with the help of measurement of the complex reflection coefficient. Optimization of the antenna position and the feasibility of calculating the antenna structure have also been discussed.
