We propose a method to estimate the amplitude of an unexpected power loss which, leveraging on calibration, enables real-time monitoring network link. It is based existing fiber-longitudinal profile evaluation technique. The reliability assessed experimentally. When anomaly located at 0 km from beginning span, estimation bias smaller than 0.2 dB for losses up 10 dB. 25 same observed but 5 In bo...

This paper represents the Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) that can be used to determine the optimal location and rating of Thyristor controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC). TCSC is equipment used to regulate and improve power flow in power system. The method used in this study was GSA. TCSC were the implemented on 500kV Java-Bali Power System. Loadflow results before optimization using Newton ...

Abstract A solution to the problem of AMB control with reduced electrical power losses will be pr...

Power Doppler imaging (PDI) has been shown to be influenced by the wall filter when assessing arterial stenoses. Real-time 3-D Doppler imaging may likely become a widespread practice in the near future, but how the wall filter could affect PDI during the cardiac cycle has not been investigated. The objective of the study was to demonstrate that the wall filter may produce unexpected major signa...
