Mobile Location Method Using Least Range and Clustering Techniques for NLOS EnvironmentsWang, Chien-chih 09 February 2007 (has links)
The technique of mobile location has become a popular research topic since the number of related applications for the location information is growing rapidly. The decision to make the location of mobile phones under the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1996 is one of the driving forces to research and provide solutions to it. But, in wireless communication systems, non line of sight (NLOS) propagation is a key and difficult issue to improve mobile location estimation.
We propose an efficient location algorithm which can mitigate the influence of NLOS error. First, based on the geometric relationship between known positions of the base stations, the theorem of ¡§Fermat Point¡¨ is utilized to collect the candidate positions (CPs) of the mobile station. Then, a set of weighting parameters are computed using a density-based clustering method. Finally, the location of mobile station is estimated by solving the optimal solution of the weighted objective function.
Different distributions of NLOS error models are used to evaluate the performance of this method. Simulation results show that the performance of the least range measure (LRM) algorithm is slightly better than density-based clustering algorithm (DCA), and superior to the range based linear lines of position algorithm (LLOP) and range scaling algorithm (RSA) on location accuracy under different NLOS environments. The simulation results also satisfy the location accuracy demand of Enhanced 911 (E-911).

Fault Location Algorithms in Transmission GridsHarrysson, Mattias January 2014 (has links)
The rapid growth of the electric power system has in recent decades resulted in an increase of the number of transmission lines and total power outage in Norway. The challenge of a fast growing electrical grid has also resulted in huge increases of overhead lines and their total length. These lines are experiencing faults due to various reasons that cause major disruptions and operating costs of the transmission system operator (TSO). Thus, it’s important that the location of faults is either known or can be estimated with reasonably high accuracy. This allows the grid owner to save money and time for inspection and repair, as well as to provide a better service due to the possibility of faster restoration of power supply and avoiding blackouts. Fault detection and classification on transmission lines are important tasks in order to protect the electrical power system. In recent years, the power system has become more complicated under competitive and deregulated environments and a fast fault location technique is needed to maintain security and supply in the grid. This thesis compares and evaluates different methods for classification of fault type and calculation of conventional one-side and two-side based fault location algorithms for distance to fault estimation. Different algorithm has been implemented, tested and verified to create a greater understanding of determinants facts that affect distance to faults algorithm’s accuracy. Implemented algorithm has been tested on the data generated from a number of simulations in Simulink for a verification process in implemented algorithms accuracy. Two types of fault cases have also been simulated and compared for known distance to fault estimation.
