This invention discloses a
partial discharge (PD)
signal denoising method based on image information entropy and multivariate
variational mode decomposition (MMD). The method involves converting the noisy
signal into a
grayscale image, calculating the image information entropy, and optimizing the number of
modes K in the MMD by combining Pearson
correlation coefficient and execution efficiency to determine the optimal value. The noisy PD
signal is then decomposed. The kurtosis value of each intrinsic mode component is calculated, and the nature of the mode component is determined based on a threshold, classifying it as either a dominant PD component or a
noise component. A mathematical statistical method using the 3σ criterion is employed to filter out normally distributed
white noise. The reconstructed signal is then denoised using an improved
wavelet thresholding method to obtain the denoised PD signal. This denoising method accurately reduces
noise in noisy PD signals, achieving good
noise suppression and restoring the waveform characteristics of the PD signal while maintaining high execution efficiency.
