This paper presents some results after comparing the characteristics of 3 algorithms, which are discrete Fourier transform based algorithm, least square method, and modified differential approximation algorithm, used at most distance relays all over the world. In case of the DFT based distance relaying algorithm, the length of the algorithm data window and the cut-off frequency of an anti-aliasing low-pass filter adopted are fixed. On the other hand, the data window lengths are changed according to the corresponding low-pass filters in the rest two algorithms. In series of tests, the apparent impedance estimated by the modified differential approximation algorithm shows faster and more stable characteristics of convergence than the two others.

A distance relaying algorithm for detecting faults at power transmission line is presented in this paper. The algorithm is based on differential equation from relaton between voltage and current, which is composed of lumped resistance and inductance. During the fault transient state,the voltage and current signals are severely distorted due to the exponentially decaying DC offset and high frequency components, In spite of using small data, the presented integral method to evaluate R and L from voltage and current has high performance against these harmonics including DC offset. Therefore, the presented algorithm can be implemented with only a low order anti-aliasing analog filter and dosen't need any digital filter to remove specific components.

An unwanted trip of backup distance relays often lead to a blackout. This paper presents investigation report on involvement of backup distance relays in the past blackouts and sensitivity-factor based algorithm to make a distinction between a fault and overload caused by line tripping. A preliminary idea to prevent deterioration of the situation due to unwanted trip of distance relays by utilizing the proposed algorithm is presented.

The zone 3 elements of distance relays play an important role during the propagation of cascaded events. The most challenging problem to mitigate catastrophic failures is to distinguish between actual faults with line flow transfer from other disconnected lines. This paper presents an adaptive protective relaying scheme based on Line Outage Distribution Factor(LODF) and Generation Shift Factor(GSF) to prevent zone 3 tripping during the cascaded events. Internet based secure peer to peer communication is recommended as a communication method of proposed scheme. Several communication issues such as reliability, speed and cyber security are discussed. In order to establish the feasibility of the proposed scheme, computer simulations for a six bus system has been performed.

This paper presents a distance relaying algorithm based on the Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT) for elimination of DC-Offset. When the DFT is applied to current signal. the real and imaginary parts of fundamental component consist of fundamental component itself and DC-Offset. The DC-Offset is calculated by four consecutive values of the imaginary components, so that the fundamental component can be accurately estimated. Performance evaluation is presented for A-phase ground faults on 154kV 80km overhead transmission line. The proposed algorithm is inspected by software simulation and hardware simulation.

This paper presents a filtering method using neural networks to extract fundamental frequency components of the transient wave signals in power systems. Based on the ability of multilayer feedforward neural networks to approximate any continuous function, a neural networks mapping filter is proposed for the protective distance relaying systems to extract the effective components efficiently. A characteristic feature of this mapping filter is composed of the multilayer perceptron neural networks which are trained by using random signals and those are mapped to the DFT filtering computational structure by GDR(Generalized Delta Rule). The advantage of this approach is demonstrated by the random waves and the fault transient wave signals of EMTP(electromagnetic transients program) in power systems fault conditions. The proposed method is compared with the conventional method and the simulation results show the efficiency of the neural networks.

This paper presents the adaptive setting method of distance relay under the single line ground fault. The apparent impedance measured at the relaying point and actual impedance is different because of fault resistance and various prefault loading condition. For a resistance earth fault detection, relay setting zone is adaptively changed with measured load current and bus voltage at the relaying point to avoid maloperation.

This paper presents a distance relaying algorithm for a transmission line protection with MAS. First, the voltage and fault current of the opposite side are represented as a function of those of the measuring end using source voltages of both ends. These voltages are assumed to be obtained from the transformers protecting agents, periodically in normal state. Then, the fault location expression, independent of fault resistance, is derived with voltage and current in only one end of faulted line used. The suggested algorithm is applied to a simple system with two power sources to show its effectiveness.
