Wire Communication System Based on DSP in Feeder Automation

As one of the core technologies of distributed feeder automation (DFA), line current differential protection (LCDP) can locate faults quickly and accurately and have the ability to cope with multi-directional flow. However, LCDP algorithm has high requirements for communication speed, and is sensitive to communication quality. In order to apply the LCDP algorithm to a real project, the communication system and its impacts on LCDP need to be studied in depth. In this paper, the design method of a communication system for LCDP, including communication mode, topology, communication protocol, and synchronization, is analyzed in detail. For better parameter determination, the communication models are investigated, and the impact of time delay, data loss, and jitter on LCDP are discussed. Further, the distribution network based on a real project is built in a cyber-physical co-simulation environment, and the impact of electrical fails and communication fails on LCDP are studied. The results show that the design method and parameters determination method proposed in this paper are effective.

Feature Match

The purpose of this article is to outline a decision-making process and highlight which portions of the augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) evaluation process deserve special attention when deciding which features are required for a communication system in order to provide optimal benefit for the user. The clinician then will be able to use a feature-match approach as part of the decision-making process to determine whether mobile technology or a dedicated device is the best choice for communication. The term mobile technology will be used to describe off-the-shelf, commercially available, tablet-style devices like an iPhone®, iPod Touch®, iPad®, and Android® or Windows® tablet.

Children With Hearing Loss

The critical need to identify children with hearing loss and provide treatment at the earliest possible age has become increasingly apparent in recent years (Northern & Downs, 1978). Reduction of the auditory signal during the critical language-learning period can severely limit the child's potential for developing a complete, effective communication system. Identification and treatment of children having handicapping conditions at an early age has gained impetus through the Handicapped Children's Early Education Program (HCEEP) projects funded by the Bureau of Education for the Handicapped (BEH).
