Communication model for multi-level control, management, and acquisition firmware-software implementations for tokamak plasma diagnostics systems

摘要

The paper describes the communication model implemented for tokamak plasma diagnostics systems. The approach was tested for the SXR measurement system working with the GEM detector. The model describes the interfaces used for integration of various firmware and software implementations, done in the system. The purpose of the applications is to control and manage the system with acquisition of measurement data. The applications are often design by various authors, therefore it is necessary to create a common communication model, for easy integration and upgrades of the components in the system.
