In this paper, field measurements carried out in a suburban SFN network with two synchronized transmitters are reported. It is found that the radio signal coverage of the distributed transmission scheme is distinctly improved when compared to a single transmitter system. The path loss gain and improvement associated to the SFN scheme are obtained as well as the multipath channel parameters incl...

A new type of distributed analog phase shifter is presented that utilizes the coplanar strip transmission line topology. This transmission line has several benefits for phase shifter design, resulting in decreased physical dimensions and potentially lower losses. A prototype was constructed using thin-film barium strontium titante (BST) varactor technology. The design achieved a 49◦/dB figure o...

Rotary traveling-wave oscillators (RTWOs) represent a new transmission-line approach to gigahertz-rate clock generation. Using the inherently stable LC characteristics of on-chip VLSI interconnect, the clock distribution network becomes a low-impedance distributed oscillator. The RTWO operates by creating a rotating traveling wave within a closed-loop differential transmission line. Distributed...

This paper proposes an optimal transmission expansion planning (TEP) which is based on determining share of each line in merchandizing surplus (MS) of system, determining by Independent System Operator (ISO). The more share of a line in MS of system denotes the priority of a line for expansion. The procedure of determining MS of each line in a power system is based on determining the MS share o...

In the present paper, the problem of externally excited exponential transmission line hasbeen solved analytically in frequency domain using a simple approach. Then steplines approximationas a first order approximation for the problem of externally excited nonuniform transmission lines ingeneral and exponentially tapered transmission line (ETL) as a special case has been presented.Finally the tw...

In order to make the operation of line more safe and reliable, state monitoring is needed remote transmission data realized on this basis. This paper proposes a variety communication modes suitable for condition transmission. The corresponding system design given different application conditions. development technology lines are discussed in combination with two schemes typical distributed inte...

In this paper, the problem of transmission loss allocation has been studied and a new method for loss allocation in transaction-based markets has been proposed. To further this end, first transmission line loss equations were used with respect to bus injected currents. The share of each bus from the mentioned transmission line losses was determined. Then, this method was applied to the total ne...

current inversion condition leads to incorrect operation of current based directional relay in power system with series compensated device. application of the intelligent system for fault direction classification has been suggested in this paper. a new current directional protection scheme based on intelligent classifier is proposed for the series compensated line. the proposed classifier uses ...
