This paper presents a fault location algorithm using current distribution factors for distribution feeder systems. When a fault occurs in distribution system, an accurate fault distance is important for fast fault restoration. The proposed algorithm achieves a high accuracy using negative sequence circuit with various fault conditions.

In this paper, we propose a new fault detection algorithm for transmission line protection using ANFIS(Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference System). The developed system consists of two subsystems: fault type classification, and fault location estimation. We use rms value, zero sequence component and positive sequence of current, and then using learning method of neural network, premise and consequent parameters are tuned properly. To prove the performance of the proposcd system, generated data by EMTP(Electr0- Magnetic Transient Program) sin~ulationi s used. It is shown that the proposed relaying classifies fault types accurately and advances fault location estimation.

Fault locating is an important element to minimize the damage of power system. The computation error of fault locator may occur by the influence of the DC offset component during phasor extraction. In order to minimize the bad effects of DC offset component, this paper presents an improved fault location algorithm based on a DC offset removal filter for short fault in a double circuit transmission line. We have modeled a 154kV double circuit transmission line by the ATP software to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault locating algorithm. The line to line short faults were simulated and then collected simulation data was used. It can be seen that the error rate of fault locating estimation by the proposed algorithm decreases than the error rate of fault locating estimation by conventional algorithm.

This paper presents a fault location algorithm for single-phase-to-ground faults on the teed circuit of a parallel transmission line. This algorithm uses only local end voltage and current information. Remote end and fault currents are calculated by using distribution factors. To reduce load current effect, negative sequence current is used. EMTP simulation result have shown effectiveness of the algorithm under various conditions.

In this paper, a good fault location algorithm will be presented, which uses novel signal processing techniques and takes a new paradigm to overcome some drawbacks of the conventional methods. The main feature of the method is that it uses the high frequency components in fault signal and considers the influence of the source network by using a traveling wave concept.

This paper describes an accurate fault location algorithm based on current distribution factors. To prove the effectiveness of proposed method, we used by simulation data from EMTP. The proposed algorithm using the current distribution factors is independent of fault resistance and load flow variation.

One of the main chalenges in personal communication services (PCS) is to locate many mobile terminals that may move frequently from place to place. Such a system operation is called location management. Many network signaling traffic, and database queries are required to achieve such a task. Several strategies have been proposed to improve the efficiency of location management. These strategies use location register databases to store the current location on mobile terminals, and are vulnerable to failure of the location registers. In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant pointer forwarding with distributed home location register (FT-RFDHLR) to tolerate the failure of location registers. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by an analytical model, and is compared with thew pointer forwarding with the single home location register (PFSHLR), the pointer forwarding with distributed home location register (PFDHLR), Biaz's bypass forwarding strategy (BFS) and two-path forwarding strategy (TPFS).

This paper presents a method of fault detection and fault localization from acoustic noise measurements. In order to detect the presence of noise sources wavelet transform is applied to acoustic signal. In addition, a cross correlation based method is proposed to calculate the exact location of the noise allowing the user to quickly diagnose and resolve the source of the noise. The fault detection system is implemented using two microphones and a computer system. Experimental results show that the system can detect faults due to artifacts accidentally inserted during the manufacturing process and estimate the location of the fault with approximately 1 cm precision.

The rapid and correct isolation of faulty submodules (SMs) is of great importance for improving the reliability of modular multilevel converters (MMCs). Therefore, a fast diagnosis method containing fault detection and fault location determination was presented in this paper. An improved incremental predictive model of arm current was proposed to detect failures, and the multi-step prediction method was used to eliminate the negative impact of disturbances. Moreover, a control method was proposed to strengthen the fault characteristics to rapidly locate faulty arms and faulty SMs by detecting the variation rate of the SM capacitor voltage. The proposed method can rapidly and easily locate faulty SMs under different load conditions without the need for additional sensors. The experimental results have validated the effectiveness of the proposed method by using a single-phase MMC with four SMs per arm.

This paper proposes a fault location algorithm for two-parallel transmission line in the case of single line-to-ground fault Proposed algorithm is using voltage and current measured in the sending-end. The fault distance is simply determined by solving a second order polynomial equation due to the direct circuit analysis. The simulations by PSCAD/EMTDC have demonstrated the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
