Abstract—This paper proposes the usage of Field Pro- squares (CLBs) associated by means of programmable in-
grammable Gate Arrays (FPGA) for fault distance detection and terconnects. FPGAs can be reconstructed to the desired ap-
positioning of an underground cable by using GSM/GPRS. This plication or usefulness necessities subsequent to assembling.

need to send 1/16 bits of the speed of the produced pulses. As
a result, the generated pulses are counted and one bit of data is
sent every 16 pulses. There are also code blocks for the project
and the UART protocol. The transmission and reception of the
data of the UART communication was given in the simulation
results section. We utilized studies given [13] and [14] in the
preparation of VHDL codes of UART communication.
