Experimental results on elongation control using dynamic input allocation at FTU

We report on the experimental results related to a recently proposed control scheme for the regulation of plasma elongation using the poloidal field coils available at ETU. already used for the horizontal position control. The proposed technique allows to realize elongation regulation as a secondary task using the same poloidal coils. (C) 2011 EURATOM ENEA Association - ENEA Fusion Unit. Published by Elsevier B.V.
