A Cooperative Protection System with Multi-Agent System

This paper proposes a cooperative protection system with a multi-agent system. The proposed cooperative protection system is realized with a layered and distributed structure based on multi-agent technology, and it is capable of performing beyond the traditional function. Intelligent algorithms based on data collected locally or shared with other devices can be processed, and adaptive protection function can be achieved. Simulations are used to illustrate the proposed methods to distance protection function. Preliminary results show that the cooperative protection system is capable of improving performance of protection system
