ABSTRACT

Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) which has features of both communication channel and lightning-line has been widely used in the high-voltage transmission lines for more than a decade. The optimum use of OPGW cable is necessary to decrease final installation cost. Since OPGW cable wastage is an important key to increase project cost, so in this paper, the genetic algorithm is used to optimize OPGW cables length wastage for drumming purpose. All simulations are presented in user friendly environment as MATLAB/Graphical User Interface (GUI).
