Integrating discrete wavelet transform with neural networks and machine learning for fault detection in microgrids

Microgrids are essential for integrating renewable energy sources into the power grid. However, fault detection is challenging due to bidirectional energy flow. Traditional relay-based systems struggle in microgrids, primarily because of limited fault currents from grid-connected renewable energy in...
