The spatial offset coefficient is used to trigger signal re-acquisition when Q < 15, until Q ≥ 15 after 3 consecutive acquisitions, at which point the data is included in the original dataset of device status.

[0072] Among them, the time synchronization accuracy coefficient The value follows the condition: synchronization error ≤ 5 The value is 1.0 at the beginning, and increases by 5 every time. Attenuation 0.1, spatial offset coefficient The value follows this rule: 1.0 is taken when the spatial error is ≤0.3m, and 0.2 is added for every additional 0.1m.

[0073] The parsing module receives the raw dataset of device operating status output by the perception module, performs feature transformation processing based on the preset feature extraction logic, and converts the raw dataset into multi-type feature vectors representing the device operating status.

[0074] The default feature extraction logic of the parsing module is as follows:

[0075] When the equipment is under light load conditions, i.e., load rate < 30%, harmonic characteristics are extracted first from the electrical signal, and the characteristic frequency is: , Indicates the fundamental frequency;

[0076] When the equipment is under heavy load, i.e., the load rate is ≥30%, transient features are extracted first, and the feature quantity is the transient pulse amplitude. ;

[0077] For thermal infrared signals, the temperature field entropy value is used. Distinguishing between uniform heating and localized overheating characteristics <0.6 indicates a tendency for localized overheating;

[0082] Through spectral energy concentration Screening key frequency domain features;

[0083] In the formula: This represents the total energy value within the resonant frequency range of the device. This represents the total energy value across the entire frequency range.

[0084] The resonant frequency range of the equipment is set to 500-2000Hz. Resonance characteristics are preserved when >0.4;

[0085] The fusion module is used to obtain the multi-type feature vectors obtained by the parsing module and perform fusion operations. It eliminates data heterogeneity through modal adaptation algorithm and generates a comprehensive feature set containing multi-dimensional state information.

[0086] The modal adaptation algorithm of the fusion module achieves fusion operation through modal complementarity quantization:

[0087] Define the modal complementarity index , This represents the joint information entropy of modes m and n. The information entropy of mode m is represented by the information entropy. The information entropy of mode n is represented by... Represents cross-information entropy, when Strengthen the correlation between two modal features;

[0088] The above-mentioned process for enhancing the correlation between two modal features includes:

[0089] In the fusion operation, the initial dynamic weights are first calculated based on the information entropy and complementarity of each modality;

[0090] The correlation enhancement factor is generated by performing element-wise multiplication on the feature vectors of mode m and mode n to produce a set of related features and calculating their covariance to characterize the linear correlation strength. The correlation enhancement factor is generated in the following way:

[0091] Using covariance value and The difference exceeding 0.3 is used as input to establish a linear mapping relationship between the two and the enhancement factor (the mapping coefficient makes the enhancement factor have a minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 0.5), that is, the enhancement factor increases with the increase of the covariance value and The difference exceeding the threshold increases linearly, and the value range of the enhancement factor is limited to 0 to 50% of the initial dynamic weight value. The initial dynamic weight of mode m is superimposed and corrected using the enhancement factor. At the same time, the above-mentioned associated feature set is integrated into the feature vector of mode m at a preset ratio not exceeding 20% ​​of the original feature vector weight of mode m. Then, the corrected dynamic weight is combined to participate in the fusion operation of the comprehensive feature set.

[0092] A correlation enhancement factor is generated based on the covariance value and the modal complementarity index. The correlation enhancement factor increases linearly with the increase of both the covariance value and the modal complementarity index.

[0093] Comprehensive feature set The generating formula is , This indicates the total number of modal types participating in the fusion. This represents the dynamic weighting coefficient of the m-th mode at time t. This represents the feature vector obtained after the m-th mode is processed by the parsing module;

[0094] in, , This represents the sum of complementarity of the m-th mode at time t. This represents the information entropy of the m-th mode. This represents the sum of complementarity of the nth mode at time t. The information entropy represents the nth mode;

[0095] During the fusion module's operation phase, the feature vectors of each modality are processed. Make corrections:

[0097] In the formula: is the feature vector of the m-th mode after outlier correction; These are the characteristic correction coefficients for the m-th mode; Let be the mean of the eigenvectors of the m-th mode; Let be the standard deviation of the eigenvector of the m-th mode; This is a sign function; it outputs 1 when the input value is positive, -1 when it is negative, and 0 when it is 0.

[0098] in, according to The signal stability adaptively takes a value in the range of 0.8-1.2. The higher the signal stability, the closer the value is to 1.2, and vice versa. The signal stability is characterized by a combination of characteristic fluctuation variance and signal-to-noise ratio.

[0099] The above formula corrects for outliers in the original eigenvector using the mean, standard deviation, and sign function, with the correction coefficient β. m The signal stability (characterized by a combination of characteristic fluctuation variance and signal-to-noise ratio) is adaptively selected in the range of 0.8-1.2. The higher the stability, the closer the value is to 1.2, and vice versa. This optimizes the quality of the feature vector and reduces the interference of outliers on subsequent analysis.

[0100] The diagnostic module receives a comprehensive feature set output by the fusion module, diagnoses the operating status of the power distribution equipment through a preset diagnostic logic model, identifies whether the equipment has any abnormalities and the types of abnormalities, and simultaneously outputs a quantitative assessment result of the degree of abnormality.

[0101] The pre-defined diagnostic logic model for the diagnostic module is a causal attention deep belief network, which consists of an input layer, a causal inference layer, an attention weighting layer, and an output layer.

[0102] The causal inference layer is used to uncover the causal relationships between various features and equipment anomalies. It quantifies the contribution of features to anomalies through causal strength, calculated using the formula:

[0103] ;

[0104] In the formula: Indicates the existence of features And exclude other features The probability of an anomaly occurring at that time; Indicates the absence of features And the probability of anomalies when other features are retained;

[0105] The above formula quantifies the contribution of features to abnormal results by calculating the difference between the probability of anomalies occurring when a certain feature exists and other features are excluded, and the probability of anomalies occurring when the feature does not exist and other features are retained.

[0106] Attention-weighted layers assign dynamic weights to features based on causal strength, with weight coefficients... L is the number of features in the comprehensive feature set, and only applies to... Causal strength features with a value ≥0.2 are retained in the weighted allocation.

[0107] The abnormality level assessment results are represented by the abnormality confidence level S. When S≥1.2, it is judged as a serious abnormality, when 0.8≤S<1.2, it is judged as a mild abnormality, and when S<0.8, it is judged as normal.

[0108] ;

[0109] In the formula: is the normalized value of the i-th feature; Preset security feature thresholds;

[0110] The above formula combines the feature normalization value and the safety feature threshold to calculate the anomaly confidence S, and the S value is used to achieve a precise quantitative assessment of the degree of anomaly.

[0111] The early warning module is used to acquire historical operating characteristic data of the equipment, combine the historical operating characteristic data with real-time status characteristic information, and predict the future operating status of the equipment through a time-series characteristic inference model. When the prediction result exceeds the preset safety threshold, an early warning signal is triggered and output.

[0112] The time-series feature inference model of the early warning module follows:

[0113] Short-term trend forecast:

[0114] ;

[0115] The formula for dynamically adjusting the safety threshold is:

[0116] ;

[0117] In the formula: The predicted value of the device state characteristics at time t+k in the future; It is a bidirectional long short-term memory network; Let w be the sequence of device state characteristics from the current time t to the historical time t−w, where w represents the length of the sliding time window; The environmental parameter vector at time t includes at least temperature and humidity;

[0118] The device security threshold is dynamically updated at time t. This is the initial safety threshold for the device; For aging coefficient and environmental impact coefficient; This refers to the cumulative operating time of the device. The baseline runtime is fixed at 1000 hours. The deviation rate of environmental parameters from the baseline value at time t;

[0119] in, The value ranges are 0.02~0.06 and 0.01~0.03 respectively, and the warning trigger condition is... And it continues to predict for 3 cycles;

[0120] In the above formula, short-term trend prediction uses a bidirectional long short-term memory network (BiLSTM) to infer the device state at future moments based on the state feature sequence and environmental parameter vector within the current and historical sliding windows;

[0121] The safety threshold is dynamically adjusted by combining the initial threshold, aging coefficient, environmental impact coefficient, cumulative running time and environmental parameter deviation rate. When the predicted value exceeds the dynamic threshold for three consecutive cycles, an early warning is triggered, realizing a forward-looking state warning that takes into account equipment aging and environmental changes.

[0122] The response module receives the abnormal assessment results from the diagnostic module and the warning signals from the early warning module, and generates appropriate equipment operating parameter adjustment instructions based on the linkage logic constructed by the equipment's rated parameters and operating safety thresholds.

[0123] The response module's linkage logic is dynamically adjusted based on device health:

[0124] ;

[0125] When the diagnostic abnormality level is severe, and When <0.6, a load reduction instruction is generated, and the load reduction amount is: ;

[0126] When the anomaly is mild, a step-wise adjustment command is generated, with the adjustment amount being: ;

[0127] After adjustment, the rate of health recovery is high. To verify the effect, Upgrade adjustment when <0;

[0128] In the formula: The device health assessment value at time t; The number of equipment loss types, including electrical loss, mechanical wear loss, and thermal aging loss; Let be the weighting coefficient for the i-th type of loss. The greater the impact of loss on equipment life, the larger the value, and it follows the principle of weighting coefficients. ; Let be the cumulative amount of the i-th type of loss at time t; The load shedding ratio for emergency load reduction commands; For the step-wise adjustment of equipment operating parameters; The health association coefficient; For abnormal confidence levels; To adjust the observation time interval after the command is executed;

[0129] in, The sensitivity setting should be adjusted according to the equipment type and parameters. For distribution transformers, the value should be 5-10, and for switchgear, it should be 3-6. The higher the parameter adjustment sensitivity, the larger the value should be.

[0130] The above formula calculates equipment health by comprehensively considering the cumulative amount of various losses, including electrical and mechanical wear, and thermal aging, and assigning weights according to the degree of impact of these losses on lifespan; serious abnormalities and When the value is <0.6, the burden reduction ratio is determined according to the health correlation coefficient and the abnormality confidence level; when the abnormality is mild, the adjustment instruction is generated by the step adjustment formula, and the effect is verified according to the health recovery rate after adjustment. If the expected result is not achieved, the adjustment is upgraded to realize dynamic adaptive adjustment based on health status.

[0131] The sensing module interacts with the parsing module and the fusion module via a wireless network. The fusion module interacts with the diagnostic module and the early warning module via a wireless network. The diagnostic module and the early warning module interact with the response module via a wireless network.

[0132] In this embodiment, the sensing module collects electrical signals, thermal infrared signals, mechanical vibration signals, and acoustic signals generated during the operation of the power distribution equipment through multiple types of sensing channels. It converts the collected signals into processable raw equipment status data to form a raw equipment operating status dataset. The parsing module then receives this raw dataset from the sensing module and performs feature transformation processing based on preset feature extraction logic, converting the raw dataset into multi-type feature vectors representing the equipment operating status. The fusion module then obtains these multi-type feature vectors from the parsing module and performs a fusion operation. A modal adaptation algorithm eliminates data heterogeneity, generating a comprehensive feature set containing multi-dimensional status information. The diagnostic module further receives the comprehensive feature set output by the fusion module, diagnoses the operating status of the power distribution equipment through a preset diagnostic logic model, identifies whether there are any abnormalities in the equipment and the type of abnormality, and outputs the quantitative assessment result of the degree of abnormality simultaneously. It also uploads the historical operating feature data of the equipment through the early warning module, combines the historical operating feature data of the equipment with the real-time status feature information, and uses a time-series feature inference model to predict the future operating status of the equipment. When the prediction result exceeds the preset safety threshold, an early warning signal is triggered. Finally, the response module receives the abnormality assessment result from the diagnostic module and the early warning signal from the early warning module, and generates an appropriate equipment operating parameter adjustment instruction based on the linkage logic constructed by the rated parameters of the equipment and the operating safety threshold.

[0133] The system in the above embodiments accurately collects multiple types of signals through multiple sensor channels and ensures data quality. After feature fusion to eliminate heterogeneity, it can accurately diagnose the type and degree of equipment anomalies. Combined with time-series deduction, it can provide early warning of potential risks. Then, it can dynamically generate adjustment instructions based on health status, so as to keep track of equipment status in real time, avoid faults in advance, reduce downtime losses, and intelligently optimize operating parameters, effectively improving the reliability of power distribution equipment and the safety of power supply.

[0134] The following example illustrates an application instance of the system described in the above embodiments:

[0135] A 110kV substation is equipped with an online monitoring system for power distribution equipment based on multi-modal data fusion. This system enables real-time status monitoring and intelligent control of the 10kV switchgear cluster within the substation. The specific application process is as follows:

[0136] Data acquisition from the sensing module:

[0137] The system's sensing module acquires data through multiple types of sensing channels. For both electrical and thermal infrared signals, a spatial coordinate mapping relationship is established based on the physical topology of the switchgear. After calibration, the spatial correspondence error between the electrical quantity acquisition points and the thermal infrared imaging area is controlled within 0.25m, meeting the requirement of not exceeding 0.3m.

[0138] For both mechanical vibration and acoustic signals, propagation delay compensation is performed considering the medium characteristics of the equipment housing. The straight-line distance between the vibration sensor and the acoustic sensor of the switchgear at this station is 1.5m. The vibration-sound propagation velocity of the equipment housing is 5000m / s, and the angle between the propagation direction and the normal to the housing is 30 degrees. The calculated delay compensation value is 0.000327 seconds.

[0139] During the acquisition process, the signal quality factor is calculated in real time. In a certain acquisition, the signal-to-noise ratio is 20, the time synchronization error is 3 (corresponding to a time synchronization accuracy coefficient of 1.0), the spatial offset is 0.2m (corresponding to a spatial offset coefficient of 1.0), and the final signal quality factor is 20. Since it is ≥15, it is directly included in the original dataset of device status.

[0140] Feature extraction from the parsing module:

[0141] The analysis module dynamically adjusts the feature extraction logic based on the equipment operating conditions. When the switchgear is under light load (load rate 25% < 30%), harmonic features are extracted first from the electrical signals, with a focus on capturing the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th harmonics at the fundamental frequency of 50Hz. When some switchgear enters heavy load condition (load rate 35% ≥ 30%) due to load fluctuations, transient features are extracted first, and key characteristic quantities such as transient pulse amplitude are recorded.

[0142] For thermal infrared signals, the type of heat generation is distinguished by calculating the temperature field entropy value. The temperature field entropy value of phase A of switch cabinet #2 is 0.5, which is determined to be less than 0.6 and thus indicates a tendency for local overheating.

[0143] When performing variable-resolution spectral analysis on mechanical vibration signals, high-resolution analysis is used in the resonant frequency range of 500-2000Hz, with the frequency resolution calculated based on the sampling frequency and the number of high-resolution sampling points. Low-resolution analysis is used in the non-resonant range (the number of low-resolution sampling points is one-quarter of the number of high-resolution sampling points). Based on the calculated spectral energy concentration, the total energy within the resonant frequency range accounts for 0.45% of the total energy across the entire frequency range; since this value is greater than 0.4, the resonant characteristics are preserved.

[0144] Feature fusion of the fusion module:

[0145] The fusion module eliminates data heterogeneity through a modal adaptation algorithm. The complementarity index between each mode is calculated. After analysis, the joint information entropy, individual information entropy, and cross-information entropy of electrical signals and thermal infrared signals show a high complementarity index, and the system strengthens the correlation between their characteristics. Due to the strong physical correlation between vibration signals and acoustic signals, the complementarity index also meets the condition for strengthening the correlation.

[0146] A correlation enhancement factor is generated based on the covariance value and modal complementarity index, and the weights of each mode are dynamically allocated. Finally, the dynamic weight coefficients of the electrical mode at time t are determined to be 0.3, the thermal infrared mode to be 0.25, the vibration mode to be 0.2, and the acoustic mode to be 0.25. A comprehensive feature set containing multi-dimensional state information is generated through weighted fusion.

[0147] Diagnostic module status assessment:

[0148] The diagnostic module employs a causal attention deep belief network for state diagnosis. The causal inference layer mines the correlation between features and anomalies, calculating a causal strength of 0.7 for local overheating and 0.5 for transient pulse features, both ≥0.2, and is included in the weight allocation. The attention-weighted layer, after assigning dynamic weights based on causal strength, calculates an anomaly confidence level of 1.3. Since this confidence level is ≥1.2, a serious anomaly is determined in phase A of switchgear #2.

[0149] Early warning module trend prediction:

[0150] The early warning module combines historical data with real-time information to perform trend prediction. Through a bidirectional long short-term memory network, based on the state feature sequence within the current and past sliding windows, and combined with environmental parameter vectors of 35℃ temperature and 60% humidity, it predicts the state feature values ​​for the next three periods.

[0151] Meanwhile, based on the cumulative operating time of the equipment and the deviation rate of environmental parameters from the baseline value, the initial safety threshold is dynamically adjusted to 1.1. Because the predicted value of 1.4 exceeded the safety threshold of 1.1 for three consecutive cycles, the system triggered an early warning signal.

[0152] Intelligent control of response module:

[0153] The response module generates adjustment instructions based on the diagnostic results and early warning signals. Calculations show that the current health assessment value of switchgear #2 is 0.5. Since this value is less than 0.6 and the system is diagnosed as severely abnormal, it generates a load reduction instruction of 15%.

[0154] After the adjustment command was executed, the system monitored the equipment at the set observation time interval and found that the health recovery rate was negative, indicating that the adjustment effect did not meet expectations. The system then upgraded the adjustment strategy and further optimized the equipment operating parameters.

[0155] Through the system's full-process monitoring and control, the substation successfully achieved early detection and rapid handling of power distribution equipment anomalies, effectively improving the safety and reliability of equipment operation.

[0156] In summary, during operation, the system in the above embodiments accurately acquires multi-dimensional signals, optimizes data quality through spatial mapping and time delay compensation to ensure the reliability of original information, extracts key features according to different operating conditions, captures subtle state changes with the help of temperature field analysis and variable resolution spectrum technology, eliminates data heterogeneity through modal adaptation, strengthens feature correlation to achieve comprehensive state characterization, quantifies the contribution of anomalies based on causal correlation, accurately identifies the type and degree of anomalies, dynamically infers trends by combining historical data and environmental parameters, dynamically adjusts safety thresholds to achieve early warning, and dynamically generates adjustment instructions based on health status and verifies the effect. This effectively improves the comprehensiveness, accuracy and timeliness of equipment operation monitoring, reduces misjudgments and omissions, avoids fault risks in advance, ensures the safe and stable operation of the power distribution system, and reduces maintenance costs and downtime losses.
