The paper presents a study of the coupling parameter, Γ of ordered structures in the dusty plasma and its dependence on the structural parameter ê. Investigations revealed that this dependence differs in different ranges of κ. If κ < 0.85, a strong interaction of dust grains was observed, whereas it is significantly weaker for κ > 1.4.
