참고문헌 [1]에서 full diversity를 달성할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 각 relay node에서의 시간 지연을 제거하기 위해서 새로운 기법을 제안했다. 그러나 복호 후 전달 (DF) 모델 연산 모드는 relay에 더욱 많은 처리 부담을 준다. 본 논문에서는 [2],[3]에서 제안한 증폭 후 전달 (AF) model로 확장할 뿐만 아니라 source-relay link와 relay-destination link로 이루어진 모든 채널의 결합 채널 계수의 순서를 정하고 다음 복호 절차에서 이전의 복호된 심벌을 지우는 효율적인 복호 알고리즘을 제안한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험 결과를 통하여 제안한 알고리즘을 이용하면 높은 SNR 영역에서 참고문헌 [1]과 비교하여 상대적으로 2-3dB의 이득을 가져오기에 효율적으로 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 제안한 알고리즘이 원래의 알고리즘과 비교하여 상대적으로 3dB 이상의 이득을 얻을 수 있는 복호 후 전달 (DF)에 유용하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The standard power system model is needed to test a transmission line protective relay There are two methods to develop a power system model for transmission line protection. First method is based on characteristic power system model, and second method is based on functional power system model. This paper presents a standard power system model for performance test of transmission line protective relay, where the power system model is based on the two methods. And this model is simulated by using RTDS to test a protective relay.

Digital technology has advanced very significantly over the years both in terms of software tools and hardware available. It is now applied extensively in many area of electrical engineering including protective relaying in power systems. Digital relays based on digital technology have many advantages over the traditional analog relays. The digital relay is able to do what is difficult or impossible in the analog relays. However, the complex algorithms associated with the digital relays are difficult to test and verify in real time on real power systems. Although non real-time simulators like PSCAD/EMTDC are employed to test the algorithms, such simulations have the disadvantage that they cannot test the relay dynamically. Hence, real-time simulators like RTDS are used, but the latter needs large space and it is very expensive. This paper uses EMTP MODELS to simulate the power system and the distance relay. The distance relay algorithm is constructed and the distance relay is interfaced with a test power system. The distance relays performance is then assessed interactively under various fault types, fault distances and fault inception angles. The test results show that we can simulate the distance relay effectively and we can examine the operation of the distance relay very closely including debugging by using EMTP MODELS.

The study for a protective relay system is one of the important technical issues on the power system application of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL). We used Real Time Digital Simulator(RTDS) to study the true interaction of the protection system with the power system. RTDS modeling of SFCL is necessary to the detailed protective relay tests. In this paper, we developed an analysis model using RTDS for studying the transient behavior of 22.9kV SFCL and carried out closed-loop testing of protective relays in distribution power system with the developed SFCL model. The SFCL model has the operation mechanism of 22.9kV hybrid SFCL being developed by LSIS and KEPRI in Korea. The parameters of the model are based on the test data of the real SFCL. Power system planners and operators can solve the expected problems in power system application of SFCL using protective relay testing results.

The purpose of this study is to develop a virtual testbed capable of predicting the functional performance of a linear electromagnetic actuator for a high voltage relay in order to reduce its development costs and time. The virtual testbed is defined by a multiphysics coupling approach in order to consider the complex interactions of multi-domains such as the solenoid model of electromagnets, the mass-spring-damper model of mechanical systems, the electric circuit model for an external control unit, and the thermal model for predicting temperature variations. The performances of the existing high voltage relay were estimated by the virtual testbed, and then the effectiveness and validation of the proposed testbed were discussed in comparison with the experimental test results. This study showed that the virtual testbed can be applied in design, optimization, and investigation of high voltage relays.

This paper presented a method to develop a relay model by the user-written model function of PSS/E. As for the voltage instability, although generator current limiters, transformer's tap-changers and dynamic loads have been considered as the dominant components, the protection system is also very important because it may influence the system's dynamic behaviour. Hence a distance relay model implemented with the suggested method was added, and then the operating characteristics of the distance relay under the voltage instability condition were investigated.

This paper presents an implementation of the generator protective relay using Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) user defined component (UDC) model designed to facilitate the investigation and evaluation of protective relays. The UDC for RTDS is a convenient model that allows user to develop new component models and run them on the RTDS. The developed model has major features related to the development of six models such as distance, frequency, reverse power, volts per Hz, over voltage, and out-of-step relays. Also, the generator relay models have been used to support and enhance power engineering education at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The developed model functions are verified and tested by both static test and dynamic test. The simulation results show the capabilities of the developed generator relay using RTDS UDC.

This paper discusses how to implement and verify a software model of the digital relay that can be added to real time digital simulator(RTDS) model library and is then subjected to the same outputs as the actual relay. The software model is stand-alone and can be used with real relays. It is also possible to conduct interactive real-time tests when the system effects of the relay action need to be investigated. The characteristics of mho type and the quadrilateral type, which is commonly used in recently developed relays, are modeled in this paper. Single circuit line and double circuit line system are used for model verification. The transmission lines are each 100 km in length and are modeled as distributed parameter lines but not frequency dependent. The transmission lines in the single circuit system are modeled as ideally transposed line. The mutual coupling data with the parallel line was taken account in the transmission lines for the double circuit system. The main CTs and PTs are included and operated in their linear region during the tests. For the purpose of testing the relay model accuracy the faults have been applied at various points on the protected line. Its accuracy is assessed against theoretical values.

This paper defines the concept of “protectability” for the performance evaluation of distance relay considering its sensitivity and selectivity. The paper starts from the probabilistic modeling of the errors, and based on this model, a detailed explanation of protectability calculation for each zone of the distance relay is presented. An effect of the Weighting Rate and the Measurement Deviation on the protectability evaluation is also given. By considering this effect, the optimization of relay setting can be realized. The proposed method is applied to a typical model system to show its effectiveness

A decode-and-forward system with an energy-harvesting relay is analyzed for the case when an arbitrary number of independent interference signals affect the communication at both the relay and the destination nodes. The scenario in which the relay harvests energy from both the source and interference signals using a time switching scheme is analyzed. The analysis is performed for the interference-limited Nakagami-m fading environment, assuming a realistic nonlinearity for the electronic devices. The closed-form outage probability expression for the system with a nonlinear energy harvester is derived. An asymptotic expression valid for the case of a simpler linear harvesting model is also provided. The derived analytical results are corroborated by an independent simulation model. The impacts of the saturation threshold power, the energy-harvesting ratio, and the number and power of the interference signals on the system performance are analyzed.
