Deregulation and privatization as well as the increase use of renewable energy are posing new challenges on high voltage transmission systems. Environmental constraints, such as energy saving, loss minimization and CO2 reduction, will also play an important role. The loading of existing power systems will further increase, leading to bottlenecks and reliability problems. High voltage power elec...

In the past, electrical transmission systems were continuously adding more facilities to their subsystems in order to satisfy the growing customer energy requirements. A utility industry traditionally has relied on a set of deterministic criteria to guide transmission planning. The traditional planning guidelines were based on planner's experience and intuition without a formal and consistent f...

To meet the ever increasing load demands in a power system and to satisfy the stability and reliability criteria, the existing transmission lines have been forced to operate closer to their security limits. As a result, several voltage instability incidents have been reported all over the globe. One of the major being the voltage collapse problems in power systems which have been a permanent co...

Power distribution system in the country is characterized by high power losses, poor reliability of supply, frequent equipment burnouts etc. The traditional approach in electric power generation is to have centralized plants distributing electricity through an extensive transmission & distribution network. Distribution generation (dg) provides electric power at a site closer to the customer, el...

The increasing growth in power demand and the penetration of renewable distributed generations in competitive electricity market demands large and flexible capacity from the transmission grid to reduce transmission bottlenecks. The bottlenecks cause transmission congestion, reliability problems, restrict competition, and limit the maximum dispatch of low cost generations in the network. The ele...

This paper presents a new approach to an on-chip asynchronous transmission system suitable for next generation asynchronous on-chip networks. It implements multivalued logic to reduce the number of wires and a low-voltage swing for lower dynamic power dissipation. Furthermore, the transmission system described here enjoys fully static design and has zero static power consumption. Two versions o...

In most digital communication systems, the information bits to be transmitted are protected against transmission errors. Typically, in the transmitter redundancy is added in a clever way by means of an encoder. In the receiver, a corresponding decoder is able to detect or to correct transmission errors by exploiting the redundancy. This technique is called channel coding. Applications of channe...
