    Abstract: In this paper we present a modeling and simulation, the methodology for calculating the electromagnetic field radiated by the high voltage (HV) lines and for selection of analytical models that interpret the electric and magnetic fields as a function of the distance to the target object. The results were compared with measurements carried out on si... Show More

    Abstract: This paper seeks to emphasise the tendency of the use of solar energy as an alternative source of energy for today as far as the lighting needs of a particular infrastructure is concerned. It compares the use of a Photovoltaic (PV) System and an existing 60 kVA generator that powers a premise. The paper provides a general understanding of a solar e... Show More

    Abstract: In this study, signal voltage obtained at the receiver is investigated by taking the Rayleigh Probability Density Function into account. Probability of received signal and occurrence of incoming signal between two levels are also studied. Success percentage, requirement of how much the receiver is to be modified and variation of voltage or power at... Show More

    Abstract: The increasing energy demands are stressing the generation and transmission capabilities of the power system. Distributed generation (DG), which generally located in distribution systems, has the ability to meet some of the growing energy demands. However, unplanned application of individual distributed generators might cause other technical proble... Show More

    Abstract: Essentially, transformers consist of two electrical conductors called the primary winding and the secondary winding which are coupled magnetically together by a magnetic circuit. Transformers work based on the principle that energy can be efficiently transferred by magnetic induction from one winding to another winding by a varying magnetic field p... Show More
