Transmission Line Maintenance Using Sensory Data Collection through Rendezvous Nodes

Abstract

By developing and implementing the distribution line management in various transmission line sectors using sensory data collection in mobile sinks and power stations by wireless communication. The goal of the concept is to provide uninterrupted load from power house to consumer; to achieve significant and immediate improvement in reliability and hence improved service to the electricity consumers. It indicates the fault occurred area to the power house and line patrol staffs. The fault location can be found out effectively and efficiently after a fault had occurred and prevent the theft of current in load lines. This concept can be used in isolated urban and rural areas to recognize the faults in load lines by formation of clusters, cluster head and rendezvous nodes in wireless sensor networks. The Zigbee and GSM technology were used in this sensor network for communication purpose. Fault indicator sensor is used for analysing the faults in load lines and retrieving the associated parameters.
