Fault waveform regenerator mainly depends on its power amplifiers (PAs) to regenerate the fault waveforms recorded by digital fault recorder (DFR). To counteract the PA¡¯s inherent nonlinear distortions, a digital closed-loop modification technique that is different from the predistortion technique is conceived. And the experimental results verify the effectiveness of the fault waveform regenerator based on the digital closed-loop modification technique. %K Fault Waveform Regenerator %K Digital Closed-Loop Modification Technique %K Power Amplifier %K Relay Protection Testing Device %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=90411
