<span lang="EN-GB">The importance of supplying undisturbed electricity keep increasing due to modernization and lifestyle. Any disturbance in the power system may lead to discontinuation and degradation in the power quality. Therefore, detecting fault, fault type and fault location is a major issue in power transmission system in order to ensure reliable power delivery system. This paper will compare two prominent methods to estimate the fault location of double circuit transmission line. Those methods are Discrete Wavelet Transform algorithm and Fast Fourier Transform algorithm. Simulations has been carried out in MATLAB/Simulink and a variety of fault has been imposed in order to analyse the capability and accuracy of the fault location detection algorithm. Results obtained portrayed that both algorithms provide good performance in estimating the fault location. However, the maximum percentage error produced by the Discrete Wavelet Transform is only 0.25%, 0.6% lower than maximum error produces by Fast Fourier Transform algorithm. As a conclusion, Discrete Wavelet Transform possesses better capability to estimate fault location as compared to Fast Fourier Transform algorithm.</span>

This paper presents a novel approach on motor current signature analysis (MCSA) forbroken Rotor Bar fault and High Contact Resistance fault using stator current signals as an input from the three phases of Induction motors. Discrete Wavelet Transform is preferred over the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) converts signals from time domain to frequency domain on the other hand Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) gives complete three-dimensional information of the signal, frequency, amplitude, and the time where the frequency components exist. In wavelet analysis, thesignal is converted into scaled and translated version of mother wavelet, which is very irregular so cannot be predicted. Hence, mother wavelets are more appropriate for predicting the local behavior of the signal including irregularities and spikes. In this research features are extracted using DWT and then features are trained in Deep NN sequential model for the purpose of classification of the faults. In this research, MATLAB software has been used for building the motor model in Simulink environment and PyCharm software is used to implement Deep NN for getting accuracy and classification results. This research helps in early detection of the faults that assists in prevention from unscheduled downtimes in industry, economy loss and production loss as well.

Power spectral density (PSD) is used for evaluating a structure’s vibration process. Moreover, PSD not only shows a discrete form of vibration but also presents various components in a vibration structure. The superposition of multiple vibration patterns on the same spectrum poses difficulty in analyzing the spectral information in the way needed to find the structure’s discrete vibration. This paper proposes a method for separating the synthetic vibration signal into a structure’s discrete vibration and other extraneous vibrations using the maximal overlap discrete wavelet transform (MODWT) method combined with the method of fast Fourier transform (FFT). With the combination of these two algorithms, MODWT and FFT, the signals of the synthesized vibration have been separated into component signals with different frequency ranges. This means that PSD will be formed, which is based on the combination of the single power spectra of the component signals. Thus, the single spectrum of each of these constructed components can be used to evaluate the types of discrete vibrations coexisting in a structure’s vibration process. The survey results in this paper show the sensitivity and suitability of select types of discrete vibrations to be separated out during the assessment of the structural change, so as to achieve the best possible plan for eliminating the unwanted and unexpected noise and vibration components.

This paper demonstrates the usage of fast fourier transform and wavelet transform in locating faults using a simple transmission line. Transmission lines connect the generating stations and load centers. Hence, the chances of fault occurring in transmission lines are very high. Signal processing is the most important part of the digital distance protection schemes. The proposed model effectively helps in locating the fault such as L-G,LL,LL-G,LLL using MATLAB/SIMULINK. In doing so it describes the method of analysis of above two transforms in SIMULINK environment using the above two transforms. MATLAB simulation results show the wavelet method of transforms is a good and powerful tool to estimate the disrupts location on the transmission line when fault occurs.
