Abstract |
Protective relays provide important features to electrical power systems for protecting against faults and consequent short circuits. This research presents a novel VLSI design of the digital protective relay, which overcomes today"s uP/DSP-based relays. This design features good cancellation of DC/k-th harmonic components, noticeable error performance and flexible protection behavior in the minimized core area. The proposed design was successfully implemented by a FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) device and can concurrently process over 16KSPS at less 0.03[%] error rate. |
