SAR Interferometry (InSAR) proves to be effective for investigating landslides. However, its measurement accuracy is largely limited by the complex atmospheric delay distortion in alpine valley regions, resulting poor performance of landslides detection and monitoring. Particularly, spatial heterogeneity over wide areas cannot accurately reflected conventional empirical phase-elevation models o...

In this paper, a novel method is proposed to monitor the power system voltage stability using Support Vector Machine (SVM) by implementing real-time data received from the Wide Area Measurement System (WAMS). In this study, the effects of the protection schemes on the voltage magnitude of the buses are considered while they have not been investigated in previous researches. Considering overcurr...

This paper presents a preliminary study of developing a novel distributed adaptive real-time learning framework for wide area monitoring of power systems integrated with distributed generations using synchrophasor technology. The framework comprises distributed agents (synchrophasors) for autonomous local condition monitoring and fault detection, and a central unit for generating global view fo...

The advent of broadband communications technologies has paved the way to the wide application of innovative, yet resource-demanding electronic healthcare services like real time telemedicine or high bandwidth store and forward transmission of medical data from underserved locations. Satellite broadband communications technologies, such as the Digital Video Broadcasting with Return Channel via S...
