This paper proposes a method of estimating the impedances between nodes in a low-
voltage distribution network. This method works without any information on the phase …

Many researchers in recent years have studied voltage deviation issues in distribution
networks. Characterizing the impedance between consuming nodes in a network is the key …

There is a rising trend to integrate different types of distributed generation (DG), especially
photovoltaic (PV) systems, on the roofs of existing consumers, who then become prosumers …

Emerging of distributed generation (DG) and automation technologies have changed the
nature of distribution systems. In modern smart distribution networks, the use of controllable …

The classical method of designing power distribution networks (PDNs) is to control the target
impedance across a broad frequency range. This methodology is based on the assumption …

Incomplete and inaccurate information of line parameters affects the condition monitoring,
analysis and control of the distribution network. The accuracy of distribution network …

Low voltages and high power loss are two main problems in distribution network especially
in remote area. To solve these problems, typical events of low voltage in distribution network …

Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA) called PSO-SA to
estimate harmonic state variables in distribution networks. The proposed algorithm performs …

Power distribution (PD) networks have many laterals and load taps. Accurate fault locating in
PD systems causes to improve reliability indices and its efficiency. In this paper, a new …

Power line communication (PLC) is considered as one of communication systems to support
a smart grid. Especially, PLC has the advantage that the construction cost is very low, since …
