title = "Status of the ITER ICRF system design - 'Externally matched' approach",
abstract = "The design of the ITER ICRF system has been under revision for several years. The paper presents the status of the design proposal based on a 24 strap antenna plug (6 poloidal by 4 toroidal short radiating conductors) in which the straps are passively combined in 8 poloidal triplets by means of 4-port junctions. These triplets are connected in parallel pairwise through matching elements to form 4 load-resilient conjugate-T circuits. All adjustable matching elements are located outside the plug, i.e. in the ITER port cell and in the generator area.",
