Methods of local profile control of electron temperature and current in fusion-oriented devices using electron cyclotron (EC) waves are reviewed. Recent progress in the development of EC heating systems that enable such control is briefly described. The advantageous features of EC wave heating include local and high power density heating properties. Current drive and electron temperature profile control experiments using EC waves performed in order to improve and investigate plasma confinement properties are also discussed.
