A parametric digital signal processing algorithm for arcing high impedance fault detection
(1988)
There is a problem which currently exists in the electric utility industry with the detection of high impedance faults. A high impedance fault is one which does not draw sufficient fault current to be detected and cleared ...
A parallelized rule-based system shell for monitoring applications
(1987)
Currently industry and academia are interested in finding ways to employ artificial intelligence technology in useful applications. Expert systems, a major subdivision of artificial intelligence, have been used successfully ...
Applications of geometric concepts toward robust signal detection
(1987)
In many engineering applications, the need for signal detection often arises. In many such applications, it is advantageous to employ a detection scheme which is relatively insensitive to possible variations in the nominal ...
Design of linear transconductance elements in CMOS technology
(1987)
Transconductance elements are useful active building blocks in fully-monolothic analog signal-processing systems. Efforts of the present research have been to develop, fabricate, and experimentally evaluate some novel ...
New technologies for simpler adjustable speed brushless motor drives
(1989)
Recent advances in the power semiconductor technology, including developments of smart-power (High Voltage Integrated Circuits, HVICs), have a direct impact on the research and development efforts in the motor drive ...
Reliability evaluation of electric power generation systems including the effects of energy limitation
(1989)
Most of the reliability studies, both single and multi-area, ignore the effect of the energy limitations. The limitation on available energy for the generating units can, however, have a significant effect on system ...
A wafer-scale boundary value integrated circuit architecture
(1986)
Wafer-Scale Integration (WSI) technology offers the potential for improving speed and reliability of a large integrated circuit system. An architecture is presented for a boundary value integrated circuit engine which lends ...
A wafer scale cellular tree architecture
(1985)
Binary tree architectures are a good candidate for WSI because of the regular use of cells and local communication requirements. Unfortunately, a single critical failure can render an entire structure useless unless suitable ...
Colorimetry and the multichannel image
(1986)
The use of color theory (particularly color metrics) is shown in the display of 2-D vector fields. Extant concepts in color theory are applied to data spaces to facilitate mapping from data into color. Novel color ...
A VLSI Cache RISC for the C language
(1986)
The performance of computers has always been the major concern of computer architects and circuit designers. Besides their advantages of ease of design and reliability, the RISCs (Reduced Instruction Set Computers) have ...
