Heating locality and current drive efficiency of X-wave and O-wave ECH/ECCD from the lower field side are theoretically investigated for tokamak plasmas in the range of the electron temperature–22.5 keV and the density n e= 1.0–m− 3, corresponding to the plasmas in the current ramp-up phase in fusion tokamaks. Performance of X-waves is better than that of O-waves up to keV, above which O-wave performance still improves with T e, while X-wave performance deteriorates with T e due to the absorption via second harmonic resonance before the waves penetrate into the fundamental absorption area at the plasma core. When T e increases to 10 keV, the cutoff density for X-waves increases by 15% beyond the cold plasma cutoff density.
