Abstract
The consequences are studied of the localization effect of ion Bernstein (IB) waves excited in secondary decay processes accompanying the development of low-threshold parametric decay instability of the extraordinary pump wave, which results in the excitation of the extraordinary wave and the upper-hybrid (UH) wave localized in the plasma. It is shown that in experiments on electron cyclotron resonance plasma heating at the second resonance harmonic, the effect discovered results in a decrease in both the saturation level of primary instability and anomalous absorption level of the pump wave.
