The proposed method uses artificial neural network. In order to train the neural network, a series of specific characteristic are extracted from the recorded fault signals in relay. These characteristics are obtained by wavelet transform on three-phase currents and sequences and extracting the high frequency characteristic. Since high frequencies are generated during the occurrence of the fault, signal information could be extracted using wavelet transform. After wavelet transform, the entropies of the minor components of the sequences as well as three-phase signals could be obtained using statistics to extract the hidden features inside them and present them separately to train the neural network. Also, since the obtained inputs for the training of the neural network strongly depend on the fault angle, fault resistance, and fault location, the training data should be selected such that these differences are properly presented so that the neural network does not face any issues for identification. Therefore, selecting the signal processing function, data spectrum and subsequently, statistical parameters and their combinations are very important. Finally, one could estimate the fault section, fault location, and fault resistance after implementing the neural network. The simulation results show the good performance of neural network for the faults in different angles, locations, and resistances.","PeriodicalId":6482,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering (ICEEE)","volume":"39 1","pages":"273-278"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85058744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper is focused on this challenging task and reports on the experience of protection coordination assessment and improvement of electrical network of South Pars Gas Complex (SPGC) and in particular the third south Pars refinery. Today South Pars is the economic hub and heart of the gas and petrochemical industry in Iran. The continuous and stable production of gas from the South Pars Gas Field is very important. In order to supply power to the third south Pars refinery four gas turbine generators (GTG) each with a capacity of 41.1MW and two emergency diesel generators (EDG) each with a capacity of 4.5 MW have been installed. In addition to this, one external line to connect the plant to the power grid is considered. Now the third refinery as an island electrical network operates independently from the power grid and provides energy needs of the refinery process and utility units. By connecting the refinery's electrical network to the power grid short-circuit current value increases. If an error occurs on the internal network when the refinery is connected to the power grid, the fault current will be higher compared to when the Refinery works in island mode. This is because current is also injected from the power grid to the faulty point. In this paper, the third south Pars refinery protection coordination in connection to the power grid will be assessed. The ETAP software will be used for the simulation. While the paper reports the practical experience in relation to this particular case study, the approach and experience helps to face the practical challenges in similar projects.","PeriodicalId":6482,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering (ICEEE)","volume":"127 1","pages":"263-268"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77665918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To investigate this method, a derivative of class J power amplifier termed BJ is emulated, which effectively lies between class J and class B along the reactive routes on the Smith chart. The mode helps explore baseband linearization approach and its suitability when using continuous mode architectures. Adopting out-of-band impedance optimization technique allows to present impedances and move progressively from a completely real set of loads to completely imaginary set of loads in a deterministic and systematic way. This further extends a view to look at how well the emulated mode linearizes at a set of BJ contour points along the way. The method uses multiple modulated signal sources, phase synchronized at both radio frequency (RF) and intermediate frequency (IF) to provide a complete multi-harmonic broadband loadpull capability controlled by a single local oscillator and allows complete impedance control at the DUT current generator plane.","PeriodicalId":6482,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering (ICEEE)","volume":"16 1","pages":"219-223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82263062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, nonlinear behaviors of PAs, due to inherited hysteresis, tend to deteriorate their tracking performance. Therefore, many research works have been devoted to the modeling the hysteresis behavior in PAs. A number of nonlinear models were proposed in the literature such as Bouc- Wen (BW). The performance of identification of BW parameters is highly affected by the type of optimization algorithm and the adopted fitness function. One widely used fitness function is the mean square error (MSE). This choice often results in a relatively high error at the peaks and valleys of the displacement waveform. In this paper, a new optimization fitness function, based on the error in the signal peaks and valleys, is proposed. This fitness function is used to estimate the BW model parameters using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. Experimental and simulation results show that this choice of fitness function improved the performance by up to 90% at the peaks and valleys.","PeriodicalId":6482,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering (ICEEE)","volume":"13 1","pages":"119-123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90461854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common breathing-related sleep disorders.

Therefore, a non-invasive technique applying signal-processing algorithms is of more benefits for identification of OSA patients from normal subjects. Any identification algorithm has two parts: feature extraction part and feature matching part. In this paper, the feature extraction part depends on the wavelet-packet decomposition technique of the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) signal. The feature matching part uses the support vector machine (SVM). The highest performance on MIT standard data is achieved by the linear support vector machine with 5 stages wavelet decomposition using db1 filters with specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy of 100%, 90% and 93.34%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":6482,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering (ICEEE)","volume":"24 1","pages":"380-383"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81570704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relay settings have to be changed depending on capacity and location of installed DG. It is complexity to analyze all operating conditions. Therefore, the effects of DG presence on the existent relays must be investigated in order to maintain protection coordination.
