Plasma heating by ion Bernstein wave in the range of \(2{ω}D{}ω{}3ωD\) is investigated in deuterium dominant plasma of the TNT-A tokamak. The localized electron heating is observed at the harmonic (3ω D ) and subharmonic (2.5ω D ) resonance layers, while the electron heating on the whole plasma region is observed at ω=2ω D . It is also shown that the heating is efficient and heating layer is localized by ion Bernstein wave in comparison with fast magnetosonic wave.
