The vital role of civil engineering is to enable the development of modern cities and
establish foundations for smart and sustainable urban environments of the future. Advanced …

This paper proposes a protection scheme according to the transient wavelet energy of DC
pole's current signals by using an illustrative signal processing technique called maximum …

With the massive integration of distributed generations (DGs), distribution networks
gradually become more active and flexible. Conventional overcurrent protection is difficult to …

The microgrids operate in tie-up (TU) mode with the main grid normally, and operate in
isolation (IN) mode without the main grid during faults. In a dynamic operational regime …

Identification of high-impedance fault (HIF) is important in smart active distribution systems.
The existing protection methods fail to detect HIF, as HIFs have peculiar fault current …

The recent progress in the area of microgrid protection has led to the application of data-
driven and signal processing techniques for fault detection in microgrids. The deployment of …

Limited fault currents in inverter-interfaced islanded microgrids impose immense challenges
on conventional overcurrent protection schemes. This paper proposes a sensitive and …

Microgrids are the future version of advanced distribution networks due to the fast growth of
renewable energy resources near consumers' side. The microgrids are operated in on-grid …

Traditional protection methods were inadequate in multiple distributed generations (MDG)
microgrids due to the bidirectional power flow/high fault current in the grid-connected (GC) …

Protection coordination is typically approached considering the main network configuration.
Nevertheless, contingencies such as generator or line failures may disrupt power grids. Low …
