Time-Domain Software Correction of Nonlinear Faulty Lossy Transmission Line Networks

In this article, we use Newton's method and the nonlinear least squares method to solve a nonlinear problem in electromagnetic compatibility. Both techniques provide a way to identify the temporal profile of a voltage source that would produce a target voltage over a given time interval at a point of the transmission line network presenting nonlinear components. After comparing the results of a test problem, the most efficient method is considered to identify the temporal source in order to bring a software correction to a nonlinear faulty lossy transmission line network. The software correction process may cancel any unintentional perturbations produced by one or more faults regardless of their type and location.
