Abstract
Experiments as well as some stochastic models have shown that behaviour of the transport in the edge plasma in fusion devices should be considered as a multi-scale phenomenon. The multifractal statistics describes processes as a multiplicative cascade with a complex self-similarity. The multifractal analysis, which enables to clearly demonstrate the turbulent properties of plasma, was applied to fluctuating signals in the biasing experiments. The influence of the biasing parameters is shown. A comparison with other types of the analysis is illustrated, too.
