* Essential diagnostic systems: Besides the common shot to shot diagnostics (ECE, Thomson, Interferometry, Radiation), all systems providing edge plasma profiles are needed. Moreover, HIBP, Doppler Reflectometer, Mirnov coils (both helicoidal and poloidal arrays) and CNPA meaurements are mandatory. MSE would also be desirable to measure changes induced by ECCD. | * Essential diagnostic systems: Besides the common shot to shot diagnostics (ECE, Thomson, Interferometry, Radiation), all systems providing edge plasma profiles are needed.
