The ion cyclotron emission diagnostic on the DIII-D tokamak comprises seven single-turn loops that measure high-frequency (1–100 MHz) magnetic field fluctuations that are often excited by energetic particles in the plasma. The raw voltage signals induced in the loops in response to these fluctuations travel through a series of cables, isolation transformer DC blocks, low-pass filters, and finally a digitizer before being analyzed in frequency space. The diagnostic has been recently upgraded, most notably to include four additional graphite tile loops and a new eight-channel digitizer. The previous three loops are all on the low-field side of the tokamak. The measurement capabilities of the system have been expanded by the addition of a new horizontally oriented loop on the low-field side, an additional toroidal loop on the low-field side, and two toroidal loops on the high-field side. These loops will be used to provide approximate mode polarization, improved toroidal mode number calculations, and information on modes in inward-shifted plasmas, respectively.
