Abstract

AI

The paper discusses the application of time-resolved spectral analysis to interpret Mirnov oscillations in tokamaks. It emphasizes the limitations of traditional Fourier transform methods and proposes a Gabor transform approach to better analyze non-stationary signals. The methodology is applied to analyze Mirnov oscillations measured in the small tokamak TBR-1 under varying conditions, including external helical perturbations.
