DC micro-energy system is an effective pattern to integrate high-penetration distribution generators. It has flexible operation modes and complicated fault characteristics, which requires protection with higher selectivity and sensitivity. This paper proposes a DC feeder protection method using the transient high-frequency currents. The fault direction and fault feeder are identified by comparing the amplitude of high-frequency currents of all ends. The amplitude ratio coefficient of DC voltages is introduced to detect the fault pole. The transient high-frequency components will not be affected by the communication delay and fault impedance. The protection scheme realizes the fast detection and clearance of different faults on feeders before the failure of the inverter-interfaced generators and loads, which ensure the reliable and safe operation of the non-fault zone. The model of a DC micro-energy system is established in MATLAB/Simulink and the efficiency of this method is verified by detailed simulations.

The paper studied the frequency characteristics of UHVDC transmission line and UHVDC transmission line boundary and their attenuation to high frequency components of fault-generated transient signal. The paper points out that existing approaches which utilize protectors to distinguish local side’s internal or external fault can’t protect the whole line. UHVDC transmission line and UHVDC transmission line boundary’s attenuation to high frequency fault-generated transient signal is overall considered, and a single-ended transient based voltage protection method which distinguishes the opposite side’s internal and external fault is proposed. The Yunnan-Guangdong UHVDC model of actual parameters was built up by PSCAD, and simulation experiment was conducted.

The two most important expected objectives of the transmission line protection are – 1) Differentiating the internal faults from external faults and 2) identifying exactly the fault type using one end data only. In conventional distance protection scheme only 80 percent of line length gets primary protection while for remaining 20 percent of line length a time delay is provided to avoid maloperation due to overreach in case of D.C. offset. In this new scheme a fault generated transients based protection method is introduced by which the whole line length gets primary protection by using the concept of bus capacitance. This scheme implements improved solution based on wavelet transform and self-organized neural network. The measured current and voltage signals are preprocessed first and then decomposed using wavelet multiresolution analysis to obtain the high frequency and low frequency information. The training patterns are formed based on high frequency signal components and the low frequency components of all three phase voltages and current. Zero sequence voltage and current are also used to identify faults involving grounds. The input sets formed based on the high frequency components are arranged as inputs of neural network-1, whose task is to indicate whether the fault is internal or external. The input sets formed based on the low frequency components are arranged as inputs of neural network- 2, whose task is indicate the type of fault. The new method uses both low and high frequency information of the fault signal to achieve an advanced transmission line protection scheme.

It is well known that the structure information on the specimen is not always faithfully transferred through the electron microscope. Firstly, the spatial frequency spectrum is modulated by the transfer function (TF) at the focal plane. Secondly, the spectrum suffers high frequency cut-off by the aperture (or effectively damping terms such as chromatic aberration). While these do not have essential effect on imaging crystal periodicity as long as the low order Bragg spots are inside the aperture, although the contrast may be reversed, they may change the appearance of images of amorphous materials completely. Because the spectrum of amorphous materials is continuous, modulation of it emphasizes some components while weakening others. Especially the cut-off of high frequency components, which contribute to amorphous image just as strongly as low frequency components can have a fundamental effect. This can be illustrated through computer simulation. Imaging of a whitenoise object with an electron microscope without TF limitation gives Fig. 1a, which is obtained by Fourier transformation of a constant amplitude combined with random phases generated by computer.

Background: Lung cancer is one of the common malignant tumors. The successful diagnosis of lung cancer depends on the accuracy of the image obtained from medical imaging modalities. Objective: The fusion of CT and PET is combining the complimentary and redundant information both images and can increase the ease of perception. Since the existing fusion method sare not perfect enough, and the fusion effect remains to be improved, the paper proposes a novel method called adaptive PET/CT fusion for lung cancer in Piella framework. Methods: This algorithm firstly adopted the DTCWT to decompose the PET and CT images into different components, respectively. In accordance with the characteristics of low-frequency and high-frequency components and the features of PET and CT image, 5 membership functions are used as a combination method so as to determine the fusion weight for low-frequency components. In order to fuse different high-frequency components, we select the energy difference of decomposition coefficients as the match measure, and the local energy as the activity measure; in addition, the decision factor is also determined for the high-frequency components. Results: The proposed method is compared with some of the pixel-level spatial domain image fusion algorithms. The experimental results show that our proposed algorithm is feasible and effective. Conclusion: Our proposed algorithm can better retain and protrude the lesions edge information and the texture information of lesions in the image fusion.

Speckles are inherent to SAR. They hide and undermine several relevant information contained in the SAR images. In this paper, a despeckling algorithm using the shrinkage of two-dimensional discrete orthonormal S-transform (2D-DOST) coefficients in the transform domain along with shock filter is proposed. Also, an attempt has been made as a post-processing step to preserve the edges and other details while removing the speckle. The proposed strategy involves decomposing the SAR image into low and high-frequency components and processing them separately. A shock filter is used to smooth out the small variations in low-frequency components, and the high-frequency components are treated with a shrinkage of 2D-DOST coefficients. The edges, for enhancement, are detected using a ratio-based edge detection algorithm. The proposed method is tested, verified, and compared with some well-known models on C-band and X-band SAR images. A detailed experimental analysis is illustrated.
