It is shown that, in the reversed-time stage, the current signal observed at the true fault location can be clearly distinguished since it appears as a time-delayed copy of the back-injected fault-originated transient signal. Then, based on this similarity property, a fault location method is derived. Finally, the method is numerically validated with reference to a reproducible simulated power network composed of an inhomogeneous multi-conductor transmission-line system.Engineering, Electrical & ElectronicEngineeringcross-correlation sequenceelectromagnetic time reversalelectromagnetic transientsfault locationpower systemultrasonic fieldstransientsnetworkswaveletssystemstext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
