Disconnect switch and circuit breakers operations in gas insulated switchgear (GIS) systems may produce very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO). Detecting VFTO is the first step for researchers to reduce the damage to other equipment of the substation caused by VFTO. Most of the existing sensors used for VFTO are generally bulky, complex to install, and require modification of the GIS structure. In this paper, a miniaturized measurement system that uses capacitive voltage divider and differentiating–integrating circuit is proposed. A special sensor structure and optimized differentiating–integrating circuit components arrangement were designed to increase the bandwidth of the measurement system. The frequency-domain, time-domain and voltage divide calibration experiment was performed, and a comparison experiment with an internal VFTO sensor was conducted. The measurement system was applied in the 500 kV GIS substation, and the VFTO measurement under specific conditions was carried out. The measured time domain and frequency domain waveforms conformed to the definition of standard VFTO according to IEC 60,071. It was found that the proposed measurement system meets VFTO measurement requirements and can be applied to actual VFTO measurements.

In order to acquire the very fast transients during the disconnector operations in GIS (gas insulated switchgear, GIS) of power substation, a novel measurement system is developed and tested. By using the high speed digitizer as an alternative of the oscilloscope with other auxiliary device, the system is an effective approach to acquire the characteristics of the disturbance voltage of VFTs, including the frequency domain and the time domain features. Several kinds of experiments are carried out in the lab and GIS substation. The results show the good performance of this measurement system.

This tutorial paper introduces a common framework for the evaluation of widely used frequency-domain measures of coupling (coherence, partial coherence) and causality (directed coherence, partial directed coherence) from the parametric representation of linear multivariate (MV) processes. After providing a comprehensive time-domain definition of the various forms of connectivity observed in MV processes, we particularize them to MV autoregressive (MVAR) processes and derive the corresponding frequency-domain measures. Then, we discuss the theoretical interpretation of these MVAR-based connectivity measures, showing that each of them reflects a specific time-domain connectivity definition and how this results in the description of peculiar aspects of the information transfer in MV processes. Furthermore, issues related to the practical utilization of these measures on real-time series are pointed out, including MVAR model estimation and significance assessment. Finally, limitations and pitfalls arising from model mis-specification are discussed, indicating possible solutions and providing practical recommendations for a safe computation of the connectivity measures. An example of estimation of the presented measures from multiple EEG signals recorded during a combined visuomotor task is also reported, showing how evaluation of coupling and causality in the frequency domain may help describing specific neurophysiological mechanisms.

Тhe advantage of combine processing of frequency domain and time domain data provided by the EQUATOR system is discussed. The heliborne complex has a towed transmitter, and, raised above it on the same cable a towed receiver. The excitation signal contains both pulsed and harmonic components. In fact, there are two independent transmitters operate in the system: one of them is a normal pulsed domain transmitter, with a half-sinusoidal pulse and a small "cut" on the falling edge, and the other one is a classical frequency domain transmitter at several specially selected frequencies. The received signal is first processed to a direct Fourier transform with high Q-factor detection at all significant frequencies. After that, in the spectral region, operations of converting the spectra of two sounding signals to a single spectrum of an ideal transmitter are performed. Than we do an inverse Fourier transform and return to the time domain. The detection of spectral components is done at a frequency band of several Hz, the receiver has the ability to perfectly suppress all sorts of extra-band noise. The detection bandwidth is several dozen times less the frequency interval between the harmonics, it turns out thatto achieve the same measurement quality of ground response without using out-of-band suppression you need several dozen times higher moment of airborne transmitting system. The data obtained from the model of a homogeneous half-space, a two-layered model, and a model of a horizontally layered medium is considered. A time-domain data makes it easier to detect a conductor in a relative insulator at greater depths. The data in the frequency domain gives more detailed information about subsurface. These conclusions are illustrated by the example of processing the survey data of the Republic of Rwanda in 2017. The simultaneous inversion of data in frequency domain and time domain can significantly improve the quality of interpretation.

The numerical procedures for dynamic analysis of mooring lines in the time domain and frequency domain were developed in this work. The lumped mass method was used to model the mooring lines. In the time domain dynamic analysis, the modified Euler method was used to solve the motion equation of mooring lines. The dynamic analyses of mooring lines under horizontal, vertical, and combined harmonic excitations were carried out. The cases of single-component and multicomponent mooring lines under these excitations were studied, respectively. The case considering the seabed contact was also included. The program was validated by comparing with the results from commercial software, Orcaflex. For the frequency domain dynamic analysis, an improved frame invariant stochastic linearization method was applied to the nonlinear hydrodynamic drag term. The cases of single-component and multicomponent mooring lines were studied. The comparison of results shows that frequency domain results agree well with nonlinear time domain results.
