Two methods are described to determine local parameters of the unsteady asymmetric plasma. The basis of one method is the parametric approach. This method is used to determine plasma parameters in the case when an assumption can be made on the shape of the intensity isolines. The temperature field was calculated according to the intensity distributions in X direction obtained simultaneously from two lines of sight. The second method was applied for measurements in arbitrary plasma configuration. In this case the temperature fields were calculated according to measurements from lines of sight simultaneously, and the obtained data were used in the Radon transformation inversion.
