In this paper, we review the state of the art in the detection, location, and diagnosis of faults
in electrical wiring interconnection systems (EWIS) including in the electric power grid and …

Electrical cables of all types are subject to aggressive environments that can create defects
or accelerate aging. Many application domains require diagnosis methods and tools. Among …

Mechanical sensing is a key functionality in soft electronics intended for applications in
health monitoring, human–machine interactions and soft robotics. Current methods typically …

This paper proposes an efficient channel impulse response (CIR)-based technique to detect
topology changes in the power grid. The features of the proposed approach include the …

Intermittent arc faults appear in aircraft power systems in unpredictable ways when the
degraded wires are wet, vibrating against metal structures, or under mechanical stresses …

Power line communications (PLC) has attracted considerable attention for supporting smart
grid applications. Since it reuses the existing grid infrastructure, it offers cost advantages …

This paper presents a new technique to reconstruct faulty wiring networks and/or to localize
the defects affecting the branches of the wiring network from the time domain reflectometry …

Sequence time-domain reflectometry (STDR) and spread spectrum time-domain
reflectometry (SSTDR) detect, locate, and diagnose faults in live (energized) electrical …

Corrosion in aircraft structures and systems persists to pose significant problem in the
aircraft industry. It affects both the aircraft structures and all the wiring systems including data …

This paper proposes an accurate physical layer technique to uniquely identify the links of a
power line communication network. First, the power line communications (PLC) multipath …
