An electromagnetic field and artificial intelligence-based transmission line protection system for smart grid is proposed in this paper. Bayesian regularization neural network is used as an intelligence technique. Instead of conventional current transformers, the use of magnetic field sensors for monitoring the current in transmission lines is proposed. A mathematical model of the magnetic field due to the current in transmission line is developed by considering two positions of the magnetic field sensors. The developed model is simulated for extensive scenarios. Line to ground, line to line, double line to ground and three-phase faults are created. The fault current values are transformed into magnetic field values and given to the dyadic analysis filter bank for feature extraction process. The extracted features are given as an input to the neural network for the training. The Bayesian regularization algorithm is used as a training algorithm. The performance of the proposed system is compared with other algorithms. It shows that the proposed system with Bayesian regularization have 96.11% of accuracy with the combination of different faults. The results obtained show that the proposed system outperforms the existing approaches.

This paper presents a multi-bandpass filter using the slit-top mushroom-like on two-layer of electromagnetic band gap (EBG) and transmission line structures. The proposed EBG filter will be utilized as diplexers. The characteristics of this diplexer have been studied by using CST software that was found that it can provide the very good performance. The maximum isolation and minimum insertion loss at the Rx-port when the diplexer operates in Tx-mode are around −40.22 dB and −1.38 dB, respectively. The maximum isolation and minimum insertion loss at the Tx-port in Rx-mode is around −38.42 dB and −0.85 dB, respectively. The bandwidth of Tx-mode and Rx-mode are in the range of 3.646 to 3.715 GHz and 3.141 to 3.214 GHz. This work is the feasibility study of the diplexer design by using EBG technology which can be modified to the other desired frequency bands.

This work derives exact expressions for the radiation from two conductors non‐isolated transverse electromagnetic (TEM) transmission lines of any small electric size cross‐section in free space. The cases of infinite, semi infinite and finite transmission lines are covered and it is shown that while an infinite transmission line does not radiate, there is a smooth transition between the radiation from a finite to a semi‐infinite transmission line. The present analysis is in the frequency domain and the authors consider transmission lines carrying any combination of forward and backward waves. The analytic results are validated by successful comparison with ANSYS commercial software simulation results, and successful comparisons with other published results.

In this study, a novel quasi-transverse electromagnetic (TEM) transmission line (TL) on a single-layer substrate is presented. The proposed structure comprises bilateral metalised vias and two longitudinal slots on the top and bottom plates, respectively. This two-conductor TL separated by the two slots allows the quasi-TEM mode and guarantees high isolation due to the vias which constrain the electromagnetic field. Additionally, the proposed structure provides a remarkable high range of the characteristic impedance, enabling a more flexible design. Furthermore, an empirical analytical formula is derived to calculate the characteristic impedance of the proposed TL adopting conformal mapping, and modified by a polynomial fraction. The transitions to the double-sided parallel-strip line and the microstrip line are proposed with which the propagation constant of this TL is extracted. The comparisons of the far-end couplings of several types of microwave TLs have been provided by the simulation and measurement to verify the isolation property of the proposed TL. Finally, the proposed TL is applied to the T-junction wideband power divider design to demonstrate its practicability. A prototype is fabricated and measured with a wide operating bandwidth from 6.8 to 17.6 GHz.

This work presents a Ka-band two-way 3 dB Wilkinson power divider using synthetic quasi-transverse electromagnetic (TEM) transmission lines (TLs). The synthetic quasi-TEM TL, also called complementary-conducting-strip TL (CCS TL), is theoretically analyzed. The equivalent TL model, whose production is based on the extracted results, is applied to the power divider design. The prototype is fabricated by the standard 0.18 mum 1P6M CMOS technology, showing the circuit size of 210.0 mumtimes390.0 mum without contact pads. The measurement results, which match the 50 Omega system, reveal perfect agreements with those of the simulations. The comparison reveals the following characteristics. The divider exhibits an equal power-split with the insertion losses (S21 and S31) of 3.65 dB. The return losses (S11, S22 and S33) of the prototype are higher than 10.0 dB from 30.0 to 40.0 GHz.

In this chapter, we discuss the transmission line theory and its application to the problem of external electromagnetic fi eld coupling to transmission lines. After a short discussion on the underlying assumptions of the transmission line theory, we start with the derivation of fision line coupling equations for the case of a single wire line above a perfectly conducting ground. We also describe three seemingly different but completely equivalent approaches that have been proposed to describe the coupling of electromagnetic fito transmission lines. The derived equations are extended to deal with the presence of losses and multiple conductors. The time-domain representation of fision line coupling equations, which allows a straightforward treatment of non-linear phenomena as well as the variation in the line topology, is also described. Finally, solution methods in frequency domain and time domain are presented. 1 Transmission line approximation The problem of an external electromagnetic fi eld coupling to an overhead line can be solved using a number of approaches. One such approach makes use of antenna theory, a general methodology based on Maxwell’s equations [1]. Different methods based on this approach generally use the thin-wire approximation, in which the wire’s cross section is assumed to be much smaller than the minimum signifi cant wavelength. When electrically long lines are involved, however, the antenna theory approach requires prohibitively long computational times and high computer resources. On the

A new method to calculate the coupling between a spatial electromagnetic wave and parallel transmission lines on a PCB is presented. The antenna reciprocity theorem is introduced to avoid the complex scattering problem by calculating the radiation of the parallel lines. Besides, the coupling length is defined to describe the coupling voltage of the loads; its frequency characteristics are also discussed.

The teaching of transmission lines at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels has been a popular topic in many electrical engineering courses. The teaching method used for delivering these courses was based on identifying the equivalent circuits and using mathematical analysis. Such approach will be difficult tasks for the students when dealing with a wide range of electrical components in a circuit. In the last decade or so circuit simulation has played a major role in facilitating the teaching of transmission lines at all levels.The Simulated transmission line used for this paper is HVAC transmission line of 180 km length. The transmission line may be simulated as a 3-phase of 180 km length or a simulated single phase transmission line of 540 km length. The 180 km transmission line is divided into 6 π sections where each π section is 30 km long. The line inductance is considered for every 30 km and the line capacitance considered for every 15 km. The actual values of the line parameters (RLC) of 400KV transmission line are: 0.02978 Ω/km, 1.06 mH/km and 0.0146 µF/km, respectively. The power carried by the transmission line is 250W.

A new synthetic quasi-TEM (transverse electromagnetic) transmission line (TL) is presented for achieving higher characteristic impedance (Z/sub c/). The proposed synthetic TL consists of a 2D array made of complementary-conducting strips (CCS) unit cell, which permits tuning for desired propagation characteristics of the transmission line under synthesis. Based on the particular case study, both theoretical and measured results agree excellently for the comparative studies for the proposed synthetic TL and the conventional microstrip. The Z/sub c/ of a synthetic TL is 130% higher than that of a wide microstrip. Furthermore, the extracted slow-wave-factor is 17.7% higher than the physical limit of microstrip.

The paper deals with analysis of propagation of transverse electromagnetic waves along lossy transmission lines terminated by a circuit consisting of parallel connected RLCelements. Using the Kirchhoff’s laws we derive boundary conditions and formulate the mixed problem for hyperbolic system describing the lossy transmission line. Without the Heaviside's condition, we cannot guarantee the distortionless propagation of waves and hence we cannot apply the known methods. That is why we apply a different method and obtain conditions for existence-uniqueness of generalized solution. We change variables and formulate a mixed problem for the hyperbolic system with respect to the new variables. The nonlinear characteristics of the RLC-elements generate nonlinearity in the equations of neutral type on the boundary. We propose an operator presentation of the mixed problem for transmission line system and by means of fixed point technique we prove existence-uniqueness of a generalized solution.

In this paper, an improved method based on the Gauss-Legendre quadrature and Unscented Transform (UT) is proposed to estimate the statistical characters of the EMC/EMI problems with stochastic parameters. The UT method provides a fast method to propagate mean and covariance information through nonlinear transformations. The Gauss-Legendre quadrature as an efficient numerical integral method is used to select the sigma points and weights. The coupling problem of electromagnetic field and transmission line can be treated as a nonlinear maping. So, we calculate the statistical characters of coupling voltage on the load of the transmission line by the GLUT method. It only needs about five times of FDTD simulation to obtain the mean and standard deviation of the coupling voltage. The Monte Carlo (MC) method has been used to validate the GLUT method. The numerical simulation results indicate that the GL-UT method can reduce the number of FDTD simulation from more than thousands of times to several times.
