DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] The present invention provides a snap-on self-powered wireless communication current transformer. The inductive power module is the core of the system. The current transformer obtains energy from the high-voltage transmission line through the snap-on current transformer through the inductive power CT design and based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The inductive power module includes core optimization and turns selection. The core is made of high magnetic permeability material (such as silicon steel sheet), and its geometric structure and material properties are optimized so that it has a high energy conversion efficiency when working in a wide current range of 0A to 120A. Through the formula ,in E 2 is the secondary side induced voltage, R 2 is the load resistance, which is adjusted by the number of turns N 2 Optimize the power output and select the best number of turns based on the optimization point of the maximum power output of the transformer.
[0019] The inductive power module, whose power CT is equivalent to a transformer, can be simplified as the excitation reactance X m , equivalent iron loss resistance R m and load impedance R L , the excitation reactance reflects the characteristics of the magnetic circuit, the equivalent iron loss resistance represents the core loss, and the load resistance is the load connected to the output end of the power CT. When the matching condition is met: (common mode matching), CT can output maximum power, and the derived formula is: ; Due to the actual R m X m , which is simplified to: R L X m .
[0020] Rectification circuit design Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the equivalent circuit of the CT and the load including the rectification and filtering is shown. is the sinusoidal current equivalent to the secondary side from the primary side, is the current flowing in the magnetizing reactance, R m is the secondary side equivalent iron loss resistance, R L is the load resistance, C is the filter capacitor. The rectifier filter circuit adopts a full-bridge rectifier design, which consists of four fast recovery diodes to ensure that the induced AC power is efficiently converted into DC power. Assume that the secondary side output voltage is U 2 , the effective value satisfies After rectification and filtering, the output DC voltage , 1.4V is the voltage drop of the rectifier bridge. A transient suppression diode (TVS) is connected to the front end of the rectifier bridge. Its transient suppression voltage is determined by the maximum inductive current of the high-voltage line to protect the subsequent circuit from overvoltage damage. Figure 2 The circuit includes a leakage rectifier circuit. Diodes D1 and D2 are used to rectify the input AC signal to make the current flow in one direction, that is, to convert the AC signal into a DC signal. Diodes D3 and D4 provide leakage protection. Switches T1 and T2 are used to switch the leakage circuit and control the current discharge through external signals.
[0021] In the design of filtering and voltage stabilization circuits, Figure 3 It is a filter circuit. The filter circuit consists of an inductor L and capacitor C The cut-off frequency is given by the formula Determine, ensure that the voltage fluctuation is less than 0.1V, eliminate high-frequency interference, and output a stable DC voltage. The voltage stabilization part uses a linear regulator (such as LM7805) to stabilize the output voltage within the 12V range required by the communication module to ensure that the subsequent module works reliably.
[0022] Analyze the circuit after rectification and filtering, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure: Voltage regulated output circuit, considering the influence of the rectifier bridge and filter capacitor, the relationship between the equivalent load voltage and the excitation current waveform is as follows: Output voltage Approximately a square wave, the excitation current It is a triangle, and its calculation formula is: ;in, For time; L is the magnetizing inductance, T is the AC cycle. Average load current The calculation needs to take into account the rectifier bridge diode voltage drop of 1.4V, the formula is: ; is the effective value of the transformer secondary side output voltage.
[0023] Figure 5 This is the leakage circuit control diagram. In the leakage control circuit design, when the primary current of the line is too large, causing the secondary side induced current to exceed the design range, the leakage control circuit starts leakage, such as Figure 6 Hysteresis comparator characteristic curve. The control logic of the leakage control circuit adopts the hysteresis comparator design. The hysteresis characteristic is determined by the upper and lower threshold voltages: ,in is the upper threshold voltage; is the reference voltage; is the lower line threshold voltage; is the feedback resistor; is the voltage divider resistor.
[0024] Control the on and off of the MOS tube to achieve rapid response and protection against overcurrent and prevent losses caused by frequent switching.
[0025] Under the condition of pure resistance load, the relationship between the secondary side output power and load of the transformer is: ; in is the core magnetic circuit length of the transformer; The power frequency is 50Hz; is the primary current measurement, N 2 is the number of turns on the secondary side, S is the core cross-sectional area, μ is the magnetic permeability. Through this formula and actual simulation results, it can be seen that the maximum power of the CT is proportional to the square of the primary current, and is optimal when the load resistance is common-mode matched. When the core is not saturated, the power output is relatively stable. When designing, the excitation current needs to be controlled to be less than the saturation current.
[0026] The wireless communication module adopts STM32F103C8T6 microcontroller as the hardware design control core, low power consumption design, built-in ADC module for collecting monitoring data. The communication module integrates NBIOT module, supports long-distance data transmission, and consumes less power than traditional 4G communication modules. Data acquisition converts analog signals into digital signals through the ADC interface of STM32. The data acquisition frequency is controlled by timer interrupt and the frequency is adjustable. The collected data is packaged and sent to the server through MQTT protocol. The data packet content includes: monitoring device ID, sampling time, current value and device status.
[0027] The fault detection function module detects the stability of the communication link in real time. When a communication interruption occurs, the module is automatically restarted and the fault information is recorded. The data transmission frequency is adjusted according to the monitoring scenario. For example, in normal state, it is sent once every 10 minutes; in fault state, it is sent once every minute.
[0028] The following are simulation and experimental application examples of the present invention: Experimental scenario construction: simulate the high-voltage transmission line environment and test the working performance of the inductive power supply module and the wireless communication module. Use a power analyzer to measure the output power and voltage fluctuation of the system. The experimental scenario includes a 220V AC input power supply, an autotransformer, a current booster, and a standard current transformer. The 220V AC input power supply introduces a stable AC power supply from the power grid. The autotransformer can adjust the output voltage online to control the simulated current. The current booster further amplifies the output current of the voltage regulator to simulate a high-voltage and high-current environment. The standard current transformer is connected to the output end of the current booster to verify the accuracy of the experiment.
[0029] The experimental device includes a power supply, a voltage regulator, a current booster and a test circuit, and refers to the verification procedures and national standards for current transformers for measurement to ensure the credibility and repeatability of the experimental data.

No-load condition: When the primary current reaches the "starting current" (about 10A to 15A), the output voltage rises rapidly and stabilizes at 12.6V. With battery load: When the primary current is small, the output voltage is the voltage across the battery. As the primary current increases, the power module starts to charge the battery, and the final output voltage stabilizes between 12.16V and 12.47V. With battery and development board: Within the rated current range, the inductive power module can stably output 12V DC power and support the normal operation of the development board. The change trend of the secondary current is consistent with that of the primary current. The experiment verifies the stability of the inductive power module under different load conditions, which can meet the power supply requirements of the development board and provide charging support for external loads. Wireless communication module test: Test content: Verify the basic functions and performance of the wireless communication module (NBIOT), including sending data to the server, sending data from the server to the terminal, and variable frequency transmission function.
[0032] Test results: Send data to the server: Use the serial port to connect the wireless communication module to the computer and verify data transmission through the Alibaba Cloud server debugging tool.
[0033] Experimental results: The data content and frequency received by the serial port and the server are consistent, indicating that the module can correctly send data to the server.
[0034] The server sends data to the terminal: Configure the Tencent Cloud platform to forward the data received by the server to the mobile phone in real time (using the "Tencent Lianlian" applet).
[0035] Experimental results: The data displayed on the LCD screen is consistent with the data received by the mobile phone, the delay is low, and the data transmission is normal.
[0036] Variable frequency transmission test: Simulate high-voltage line faults and set abnormal data to trigger the high-frequency data sending function.
[0037] Experimental results: Under normal circumstances, the data transmission frequency is once every 8 seconds, and in the event of a fault, it is increased to once every 2 seconds, verifying the effectiveness of the variable frequency transmission function.
