Machine protection is a core task of real-time image diagnostics aiming for steady-state operation in nuclear fusion devices. The paper evaluates the applicability newest low-power NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX platform plasma diagnostics. This embedded Tegra System-on-a-Chip (SoC) integrates Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and Central (CPU) on single chip. hardware differences features compared to previous TX2 are signified. Implemented algorithms detect thermal events real-time, utilising high...
Embedded systems become more and complex, this is also a case for their software. For reason, there an increased demand software updates data compression to decrease the application download time. The purpose of paper compare algorithms in terms use firmware Micro Telecommunications Computing Architecture (MicroTCA) system Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) board. To reduce upload time Module Management Controller (MMC) literature review was conducted. Selected lossless were tested. implemented...
Abstract A pair of a scintillator and Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) is often used as Hard X-Ray (HXR) radiation detector in existing tokamaks such JET, EAST, COMPASS or ASDEX-U. Future nuclear fusion reactors ITER DEMO will use more powerful magnets confine larger volume hot plasma. Placement the detectors for plasma diagnostic be constrained by high temperatures, magnetic fields ionizing present near tokamak vessel. It might necessary to move away from safer location. This generate problems...
Hard x-ray (HXR) spectroscopy is applied for diagnostics of runaway electrons in nuclear fusion reactors. The scintillation counter one the most commonly used types detectors HXR spectroscopy. It consists a detector that emits light when excited by radiation (scintillator) directly coupled to PMT (Photomultiplier Tube) converts pulses into an electrical signal. This type existing tokamaks, such as Joint European Torus (JET), Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), Compact...
Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) detectors are commonly used for plasma diagnostics in fusion devices such as tokamaks or stellarators. Thanks to low response time and high sensitivity, this type of sensor is often applications that rely on fast digital pulse processing a spectroscopy. Large size ITER tokamak require sensitive electronic be placed far away from the reactor due magnetic field, ionizing non-ionizing radiation. One diagnostic system, use PMT's Hard X-Ray Monitor (HXRM). In case HXRM...
