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.

Distance relay is widely used for the protection of long transmission line. Most of distance relay used to calculate line impedance by measuring voltage and current using DFT. So if there is a computation error due to the influence of phasor by DC offset component, due to excessive vibration by measuring line impedance, overreach or underreach can be occurs, and then abnormal and non-operation of distance relay can be issue. It is very important to implement the robust distance relaying that is not affected by DC offset component. This paper describes an enhanced distance relaying based on the DC offset elimination filter to minimize the effects of DC offset on a long transmission line. The proposed DC offset elimination filter has not need any prior information. The phase angle delay of the proposed DC offset filter did not occurred and the gain error was not found. The enhanced distance relay uses fault current as well as residual current. The behavior of the proposed distance relaying using off-line simulation has been verified using data about several fault conditions generated by the ATP simulation software.

Many papers have recently been presented to develop energy functions for power systems. However, earlier studies adopted case-by-case approaches, which failed to give a general approach to deal with various kinds of generator models. In this paper, two useful theorems are developed regarding the integral relationships of the generator power versus its phasor current and voltage. By using the proposed theorems, an exact energy conservation law can be derived from the complex integral. The proposed energy conservation law, which is free of the generator model, can be utilized to develop energy functions for various kinds of generator models including the speed governors, and exciters. An illustrative example is given for a multimachine system with the Eq' model of generator. This thesis also shows a possibility of more accurate and fast stability analysis by using the proposed Energy Conservation Law.

Power grid techniques are distributed over general power systems ranging from power stations to power transmission, power distribution, and users. To monitor and control the elements and performance of a power system in real time in the extensive area of power generation, power transmission, wide-area monitoring (WAM) and control techniques are required (Sattinger et al. 2007). Also, to efficiently operate a power grid, integrated techniques of information and communication technology are required for the application of communication network and relevant equipment, computing, and system control software. WAM should make a precise power grid measurement of more than once per cycle by time synchronization using GPS. By collecting the measurement values of a power grid from substations located at faraway regions through remote communication, the current status of the entire power grid system can be examined. However, for GPS that is used in general national industries, unexpected dangerous situations have occurred due to its deterioration and jamming. Currently, the power grid is based on a synchronization system using GPS. Thus, interruption of the time synchronization system of the power system due to the failure or abnormal condition of GPS would have enormous effects on each field such as economy, security, and the lives of the public due to the destruction of the synchronization system of the national power grid. Developed countries have an emergency substitute system in preparation for this abnormal situation of GPS. Therefore, in Korea, a system that is used to prepare for the interruption of GPS reception should also be established on a long-term basis; but prior to this, it is required that an evaluation technique for the time synchronization performance of a GPS receiver using an atomic clock within the power grid. In this study, a monitoring system of time synchronization based on GPS at a power grid was implemented, and the results were presented.

A wide-area protection intelligent technique has been used to improve a reliability in power systems and to prevent a blackout. Nowadays, voltage and current phasor estimation has been executed by GPS-based synchronized PMU, which has become an important way of wide-area blackout protection for the prevention of expending faults in power systems. As this technique has the difficulties in collecting and sharing of information, there have been used a FNET method for the wide-area intelligent protection. This technique is very useful for the prediction of the inception fault and for the prevention of fault propagation with accurate monitoring frequency and frequency deviation. It consists of FDRs and IMS. It is well known that FNET can detect the dynamic behavior of system and obtain the real-time frequency information. Therefore, FDRs must adopt a optimal frequency estimation method that is robust to noise and fault. In this paper, we present comparative studies for the frequency estimation method using IRDWT(improved recursive discrete wavelet transform), for the frequency estimation method using FRDWT(fast recursive discrete wavelet transform). we used the Republic of Korea 345kV power system modeling data by EMTP-RV. The user-defined arbitrary waveforms were used in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed two kinds of RDWT. Also, the frequency variation data in various range, both large range and small range, were used for simulation. The simulation results showed that the proposed frequency estimation technique using FRDWT can be the optimal frequency measurement method applied to FDRs.

MIMO-OFDM 방식에서 추정된 채널 계수에 추정 오차가 있다면, 시스템의 성능 저하가 발생하게 된다. MIMO-OFDM 방식의 성능을 향상시키기 위해서는 무엇보다도 다중 경로 페이딩 환경에서 정확하게 채널을 추정 할 수 있는 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 다중 경로 시변 페이딩 채널하에서의 modified ICA (Independent Component Analysis)을 이용하여 수신된 신호로부터 각 송신 안테나의 송신 신호를 분리한 후, 채널을 추정하여 검파하는 새로운 채널 추정 방식인 Modified ICA 알고리즘을 소개하고, 제안하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 Modified ICA를 이용한 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에서의 채널 추정에 대한 모의실험 결과, perfect hewn channel 대해 Uncoded QPSK,16-QAM, 64-QAM의 SER과 BER 성능 비교 곡선이 매우 근접함을 알 수 있다. 따라서 제안된 알고리즘이 MIMO-OFDM 시스템에서 우수한 성능을 지니고 있음을 보여 주고 있다.

반송파 주파수 옵셋은 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 신호의 부채널간 간섭(ICI)을 유발하며, 수신 신호의 진폭과 위상을 왜곡시켜 전체적인 시스템 성능에 심각한 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 OFDM 시스템에서 주파수 옵셋을 추정하는 새로운 기법을 제한한다. 이 기법은 주파수 옵셋으로 인해 위상이 회전 되어 왜곡된 OFDM 심볼의 CP와 유효 OFDM 심볼에 대해 통계적 독립 성분 분석(ICA - Independent Component Analysis)을 EVD(Eigenvalue Decomposition), 회전 페이저, 그리고 $4^{th}-cumulants$를 이용하여 시간영역에서 추정하여 보상하는 기법이다. 어떤 훈련 심볼열이나 파일럿 심볼을 필요하지 않기 때문에 대역폭 효율의 저하가 없다. 모의실험 결과, 제안된 CP-ICA 기법이 주파수 옵셋의 범위가 $0.0<\varepsilon<1.0$에서 기존의 제안된 주파수 옵셋 추정기보다 매우 좋은 BER 성능 결과를 보여준다.

This paper discusses the state-of-the-art techniques in real-time state estimation for the Smart Microgrids. The most popular method used in traditional power system state estimation is a Weighted Least Square(WLS) algorithm which is based on Maximum Likelihood(ML) estimation under the assumption of static system state being a set of deterministic variables. In this paper, we present a survey of dynamic state estimation techniques for Smart Microgrids based on Belief Propagation (BP) when the system state is a set of stochastic variables. The measurements are often too sparse to fulfill the system observability in the distribution network of microgrids. The BP algorithm calculates posterior distributions of the state variables for real-time sparse measurements. Smart Microgrids are modeled as a factor graph suitable for characterizing the linear correlations among the state variables. The state estimator performs the BP algorithm on the factor graph based the stochastic model. The factor graph model can integrate new models for solar and wind correlation. It provides the Smart Microgrids with a way of integrating the distributed renewable energy generation. Our study on Smart Microgrid state estimation can be extended to the estimation of unbalanced three phase distribution systems as well as the optimal placement of smart meters.

본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.113의 표준안에 정의된 OFDM (Orthogoanl Frequency Division Multiplexing) 기반의 무선 LAN 시스템의 수신기를 구현하였다. OFDM 방식은 데이터 전송시 다수의 직교 반송파를 사용하여 병렬전송을 하기 때문에 오류 정정 부호와 함께 사용할 때 고속 데이터 전송시에 나타나는 주파수 선택적 페이딩을 극복할 수 있다. 그러나 수신단에서 동기가 이루어지지 않는 경우 부반송파 사이에 직교성이 파괴되어 채널간 간섭이 발생하여 오류 성능이 크게 저하된다. 따라서 시스템의 동기를 이루기 위해 심볼을 구성하는 부반송파 사이의 위상관계를 이용하여 OFDM 신호의 주파수 옵셋을 추정하였으며 단일탭 등화기를 통하여 채널상의 잡음에 의한 오차를 개선하였다. 효율적인 하드웨어 구성을 위해 이들 블록을 Verilog HDL으로 모델링 하였으며 표준안의 벡터를 이용하여 기능 검증 및 성능 평가를 수행하였다.
