Course Objectives

Electricity is one of the most important blessings that science has given to mankind. It powers the Earth and without electricity, wed be back in the dark ages. The electrical power system is one of the most complex and expensive system ever constructed by man. As electricity cannot be stored, so it is consumed the instant it is generated. Failing to preserve this equilibrium (lack of generation, faults, poor planning) leads to an instability of the system or in the worse case to a blackout with very dire economic consequences. Effective protection through automated control plays a central role in its prevention.

Automation necessitates the use of electronics and signal processing techniques. Hence, there is a need of interdisciplinary research efforts both by electronics, control and power community in line with the demands of the industry. This course will help in disseminating required research issues and techniques to the participants enabling them to identify important problems to be taken up in academia to bridge industry-academia gap.
