Fault Identification On Electrical Transmission Lines Using Artificial Neural Networks, Christopher W. Asbery Jan 2020

Fault Identification On Electrical Transmission Lines Using Artificial Neural Networks, Christopher W. Asbery

Theses and Dissertations--Electrical and Computer Engineering

Transmission lines are designed to transport large amounts of electrical power from the point of generation to the point of consumption. Since transmission lines are built to span over long distances, they are frequently exposed to many different situations that can cause abnormal conditions known as electrical faults. Electrical faults, when isolated, can cripple the transmission system as power flows are directed around these faults therefore leading to other numerous potential issues such as thermal and voltage violations, customer interruptions, or cascading events. When faults occur, protection systems installed near the faulted transmission lines will isolate these faults from the …


On The Automorphisms And Isomorphisms Of Mds Matrices And Their Efficient Implementations, Muharrem Tolga Sakalli, Sedat Akleylek, Kemal Akkanat, Vincent Rijmen Jan 2020

On The Automorphisms And Isomorphisms Of Mds Matrices And Their Efficient Implementations, Muharrem Tolga Sakalli, Sedat Akleylek, Kemal Akkanat, Vincent Rijmen

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we explicitly define the automorphisms of MDS matrices over the same binary extension field. By extending this idea, we present the isomorphisms between MDS matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$ and MDS matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{mt}}$, where $t \ge 1$ and $m>1$, which preserves the software implementation properties in view of XOR operations and table lookups of any given MDS matrix over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$. Then we propose a novel method to obtain distinct functions related to these automorphisms and isomorphisms to be used in generating isomorphic MDS matrices (new MDS matrices in view of implementation properties) using the existing ones. The …

Wideband Patch Array Antenna Using Superstrate Configuration For Future 5gapplications, Sidra Farhat, Farzana Arshad, Yasar Amin, Jonathan Loo

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this work, four distinct antenna configurations for future-centric 5G applications are proposed. Initially, a single rectangular patch is designed to operate at the frequency of 28 GHz while maintaining a wide operational band. Performance of the antenna is improved by incorporating an array of identical rectangular elements resulting in a higher gain and wider bandwidth. The proposed arrangement consists of three rectangular elements realized using 0.508-mm thick Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 laminate. The bandwidth is further enhanced by increasing the number of radiating elements in the array from three to five. Evolution of the proposed design is concluded by stacking …


Revised Polyhedral Conic Functions Algorithm For Supervised Classification, Gürhan Ceylan, Gürkan Öztürk Jan 2020

Revised Polyhedral Conic Functions Algorithm For Supervised Classification, Gürhan Ceylan, Gürkan Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In supervised classification, obtaining nonlinear separating functions from an algorithm is crucial for prediction accuracy. This paper analyzes the polyhedral conic functions (PCF) algorithm that generates nonlinear separating functions by only solving simple subproblems. Then, a revised version of the algorithm is developed that achieves better generalization and fast training while maintaining the simplicity and high prediction accuracy of the original PCF algorithm. This is accomplished by making the following modifications to the subproblem: extension of the objective function with a regularization term, relaxation of a hard constraint set and introduction of a new error term. Experimental results show that …
