waste of time.

     The approximation coefficients are decomposed with
low pass filters and then down-sampled to boost the
frequency resolution even further. This is depicted as a
binary tree, with each node indicating a distinct time-
frequency localization of a sub-space. A filter bank is the
name given to the tree.

     By adopting the wavelet transform, the threshold value
is used to classify fault type in the power system. The value
of the threshold is not universal and cannot be applied to all
types of power systems. This threshold value will be
calculated for each new power system in order to correctly
categorize the various kinds of faults. Here, the threshold
value is selected equal to 100 according to the maximum
value of detailed phase and ground current coefficients for

various faults as shown in table 1 (in result section).

     The basic goal of the feature extraction is to supply
significant information and maximum detail coefficients to
the classifier so that it can categorize the kind of event using
the computed features. The fault type is classified using the

classifier block based on the threshold value.
