Abstract

Reliable and efficient fault detection in transmission lines is vital for ensuring the stability and safety of modern power systems. Conventional fault detection techniques often face challenges in accurately identifying fault types and locations under dynamic operating conditions and noise interference. To address these limitations, this research focuses on the optimization of transmission line fault detection using a wavelet network. The proposed approach integrates the time frequency localization capability of the wavelet transform with the adaptive learning strength of neural networks, enabling precise feature extraction and intelligent fault classification. By optimizing network parameters such as the mother wavelet selection, decomposition levels, and learning rate, the system achieves faster convergence and improved accuracy. Simulation results demonstrate that the optimized wavelet network outperforms traditional detection methods in terms of fault localization accuracy, computational efficiency, and noise resilience. This optimized model provides an effective and intelligent framework for enhancing power system protection and minimizing fault recovery time.
