An Approach for Detecting Fault Lines in a Small Current Grounding System using Fuzzy Reasoning Spiking Neural P Systems

Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach for detecting fault lines in a small current grounding system using fuzzy reasoning spiking neural P systems. In this approach, six features of current/voltage signals in a small current grounding system are analyzed by considering transient and steady components, respectively; a fault measure is used to quantify the possibility that a line is faulty; information gain degree is discussed to weight the importance of each of the six features; rough set theory is applied to reduce the features; and finally a fuzzy reasoning spiking neural P system is used to construct fault line detection models. Six cases in a small current grounding system prove the effectiveness of the introduced approach.
