Computer relaying has played an important role in power system protection as technology advances. Due to the great flexibility of computer-based relays, it will be applicable to design a general user programmable relay to ...

As a result of recent increases in demand for network bandwidth, it is becoming more important that high-speed telecommunication networks be installed, managed, and used as efficiently as possible. In order for these ...

The purpose of this thesis is to demonstrate that a pulse-width-modulated static compensator is capable of performing three-phase load balancing and power factor correction. An unbalanced load is analysed using sequence ...

Grid computing systems utilize distributively owned and geographically dispersed resources for providing a wide variety of services for various applications. One of the key considerations in Grid computing systems is ...

In this thesis, a direct IIR design method for real WDFs based on Gazsi's work is summarized in detail, and the cascade realization of first- and second-order allpass sections is generalized to any IIR transfer function, ...

For opportunistic spectrum access and spectrum sharing in cognitive radio networks, one key problem is how to develop wireless access schemes for secondary users so that harmful interference to primary users can be avoided ...

Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GIC) are the ground effect of a complicated space weather chain that originates in the sun. During a GIC event, the quasi dc current that enters the transformers through the grounded ...

The main focus of this thesis is to develop an efficient method for handling DC grounding problems involving earth non-homogeneity. A numerical technique has been employed using a commercial 'Finite Element Method' (FEM) ...
