Effects of CT and VT Connection Point on Distance Protection of Transmission Lines with FACTS Devices
This paper presents the effects of instrument transformers connection points on the measured impedance by distance relays in the presence of Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) devices with series connected branch. Distance relay tripping characteristic itself depends on the power system structural conditions, pre-fault operational conditions, and especially the ground ...
متن کاملAnalysis of transmission lines matching using quarter-wave transformer
Due to conformal capability, research on transmission lines has received much attention lately. Many studies have been reported in the last decade in which transmission lines have been analyzed extensively using various techniques. It is well known that transmission lines are used for transmission of information, but in this case the main aim is to deliver information from generator to receiver...

Wilkinson Power Dividers/Combiners The in-phase power combiners and dividers are important components of the RF and microwave transmitters when it is necessary to deliver a high level of the output power to antenna, especially in phased-array systems. In this case, it is also required to provide a high degree of isolation between output ports over some frequency range for identical in-phase sig...
متن کاملAn assessment on the accuracy of time-domain reflectometry for measuring the characteristic impedance of transmission lines
An assessment of time-domain reflectometry (TDR) for measuring the characteristic impedance ZTL of transmission lines is performed. The assessment includes the accuracy of measuring ZTL as a function of TDR electrical impedance Zo, the ability to measure impedance perturbations as a function of ZTL and Zo, and the ability to differentiate between transmission lines of similar ZTL. The informati...
متن کاملLow-Swing Voltage-Mode Driver Impedance Control
Transmitters are used to pass data stream through transmission lines in either current or voltage mode. In high data rate applications, the output impedance of transmitters should match the transmission lines’ characteristic impedance and should be tunable in order to compensate the process, voltage, and temperature variations. The multiplexing technique can be used to extend transmitters signa...
