Outage areas can be transferred to adjacent feeders to restore power supply in case of the fault on the distribution system. Feeders in the small island or mountain area may not have backup feeders due to the low density of load. In this weakly meshed open loop system, BESS can be used as a backup feeder to improve reliability of power supply. This paper proposes a new network reconfiguration method for BESS based service restoration. Fuzzy decision making technique is adopted to deal with fuzziness of service restoration planning rules. Case studies using KEPCO real distribution system have been performed to verify feasibility of the proposed method.

In order to improve the power restoration capability of system operators In case that the fault and blackout happen in the power system, Development of the Power Restoration Training System is necessarily required as a simulator tool for training operator. Owing to these reasons, KEPRI has developed the power restoration training system and graphic editor and applied it to Jeju transmission system. This paper presents the design and implementation of the system, and shows a example to simulate the primary restorative line in jeju.

Up to date, operator assistance systems -fault diagnosis system, fault restoration system etc.- are developed for power system automation. In this condition, an efficiency test of assistance system must be performed to prove application in real power system. This paper presents an SCADA simulator for an efficiency test of the operator assistance system, which is developed in the SCADA system. The proposed simulator is implemented under Win95 with Pentium-PC.

Fault section detection and service restoration is very important in ungrounded distribution system. Techniques currently used to track down faults are time consuming and cumbersome. A new scheme is developed based on communication technology, and the simulation result shows that the method can satisfy the requirement proposed.

In this paper, we present a methodology for fast segment restoration under multiple simultaneous link failures in mesh-type MPLS networks. The salient feature of the methodology is that both resilience and QoS constraint conditions have been taken into account for fast segment restoration. For fast restoration, a sufficient condition for testing the existence of backup segments with guaranteed-resilience has been derived for a mesh-type MPLS network. The algorithms for constructing backup segments which can meet both resilience and QoS constraint conditions are then presented with illustrating examples. Finally, simulation has been done to show the efficiency of the proposed segment restoration algorithms.

As optical network technology advances and high bandwidth Internet is demanded for the exponential growth of internet traffic volumes, the Dense-Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) networks have been widely accepted as a promising approach to the Next Generation Optical Internet (NGOI) backbone networks for nation wide or global coverage. Important issues in the NGOI based on DWDM networks are the Routing and Wavelength Assignment(RWA) problem and survivability. Especially, fault/attack detection, localization and recovery schemes in All Optical Transport Network(AOTN) is one of the most important issues because a short service disruption in DWDM networks carrying extremely high data rates causes loss of vast traffic volumes. In this paper, we suggest a fault/attack management model for NGOI through analyzing fault/attack vulnerability of various optical backbone network devices and propose fault/attack recovery procedure considering Extended-LMP(Link Management Protocol) and RSVP-TE+(Resource Reservation Protocol-Traffic Engineering) as control protocols in IP/GMPLS over DWDM.

Increased network reliability is required as the size of communication network becomes larger and the bandwidth requirement is increasing. And preparing of backup path is required to protect the network from serious network failures in high speed network. In this paper, we construct multiple logical networks on a physical ATM network according to the ATM bearer service category(CBR, rt-VBR, nrt-VBR, ABR, UBR) defined by ATM Forum to support the required QoS(Quality of Service) and to manage the network more efficiently. We use backup path restoration algorithm rather than dynamic restoration to achieve rapid restoration when active path fails and we use fault management function in TINA. We propose a restoration scheme that is suitable for high-speed network.

Dynamic Voltage Restorer(DVR) which is installed between the supply and a critical load can restore voltage disturbances in distribution system. The restoration is based on injecting the same voltages as voltage sags. The ideal restoration is compensation to make the load voltages be unchanged. But voltage restoration involves real power or energy injection and the capability of energy storage is limited. So it must be considered how injection energy can be minimized and voltages can be made close to the voltages before fault. This paper describes conventional restoration techniques, which draw minimum energy from the DVR in order to correct a given voltage sag or swell. And this paper proposes a new concept of restoration technique to inject minimum energy. The proposed method is based on the definition of voltage tolerance in load side. Hence using the proposed method a particular disturbance can be corrected with less amount of storage energy compared to those of conventional methods.

Service restoration is an emergency control in distribution constrol centers to restore out-of-service area as soon as possible when a fault occurs in distribution networks. therefore, it requires fast computation time and high quality solutions for load balancing. In this paper. a load balance index and heuristic guided best-first search are proposed for these problem. The proposed algorithm consists of two parts. One is to set up a decision tree to represent the various switching operations available. Another is to identify the most effective the set of switches using proposed search technique and a load balance index. Test results on the KEPCO's 108 bus distribution system show that the performance is efficient and robust.

In this paper, an effective power flow control strategy (PFCS) based on the centralized control approach and a DC-link (DCV) restoration algorithm for DC microgrid (DCMG) are presented. By investigating the statuses of system power units, eleven operating modes are given to ensure the system power balance under various conditions. To avoid the system power imbalance caused by the delay of grid fault detection, a reliable DCV restoration algorithm is proposed. In the proposed scheme, when an abnormal variation of the DCV is detected, the battery instantly starts a local emergency control mode to restore the DCV to the nominal value regardless of the control mode from the central controller. The simulations and experiments are carried out to prove the effectiveness of the PFCS and the proposed DCV restoration algorithm.
