Measures to Improve Practical Using Reliability of Protective Relaying Systems

Reconfiguration of distribution systems to improve reliability and reduce power losses using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm

Distribution systems can be operated in multiple configurations since they are possible combinations of radial and loop feeders. Each configuration leads to its own power losses and reliability level of supplying electric energy to customers. In order to obtain the optimal configuration of power networks, their reconfiguration is formulated as a complex optimization problem with different objec...

Using Travel Time Reliability Measures to Improve Regional Transportation Planning and Operations

Travel time estimation is of increasing importance to travelers and transportation professionals alike as congestion worsens in major urban areas. In fact, the reliability of travel time estimates on a given corridor may be more important for travelers, shippers, and transport managers than the travel time itself. This paper examines the uses of measured travel time reliability indices for impr...

coordination of protective schemes in distribution and subtransmission systems including distributed generation

نصب منابع پراکنده در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع علاوه بر مزیت های فراوان، مشکلاتی را هم به همراه دارد. یکی از این مشکلات تأثیر این منابع روی اندازه جریان های اتصال کوتاه است. به طور معمول از حفاظت های مبتنی بر اصل جریان زیاد در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع استفاده می شود. از مهمترین طرح های حفاظتی استفاده شده در فیدرهای توزیع، حفاظت فیوز- ریکلوزر است. همچنین از طرح های حفاظتی جریان زیاد جهتی در...

An Evaluation of the Systems Reliability Using Fuzzy Lifetime Distribution

Link Reliability in Cooperative Relaying Using Network Coding

Demand for high data rates is increasing rapidly for future wireless systems. This trend is due to the increase in the number of mobile subscribers that need bandwidth hungry multimedia applications anywhere, anytime. Fourth generation cellular systems like IMT-advanced are being developed to meet these requirements. The unreliable nature of the wireless medium is one of the main hinderance in ...
