Multi-Signal Predictive Control For Pre-Disruption Fusion Plasma Management
This paper outlines a predictive control concept for fusion plasmas focused on detecting and preventing pre-flare-up instability states before damaging burst or discharge behavior develops. It proposes a multi-signal spectral-state architecture that monitors precursor changes in frequency, phase, amplitude, rotation, and mode coupling, then uses that evolving state to guide preemptive intervention rather than purely reactive suppression.
