Introduction
MHD instabilities is one of the main obstacles to realize the tokamak advance operation with high parameters.
MHD instabilities suppression and control is a basic and important topic of tokamak plasma research.

The phase difference from two floating potential signals measured by Langmuir probes nearby along the poloidal field line can be used to calculate the poloidal rotation speed*.

Conclusion
Biasing electrode can suppress MHD instabilities effectively.
Suppression effect is strong depended on the biased current
Edge plasma rotation is increased greatly by biasing voltage
Plasma profile is changed by biasing electrode.
Further study is need.
