[0044] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for monitoring the operating status of a wind turbine generator set, comprising the following steps:
[0046] S1. Collecting real-time vibration data of the wind turbine tower and blades at different times, and preprocessing the vibration data of the wind turbine tower and the real-time vibration data of the blades to obtain the latest vibration data of the wind turbine tower and blades;
[0047] S2. Extracting a tower feature matrix based on the latest vibration data of the wind turbine tower; extracting a blade feature matrix based on the latest vibration data of the blade;

[0050] Wind turbine towers, as the masts of wind power generation, primarily support wind turbines and absorb vibrations. Tower vibrations can easily cause resonance between the tower and blades, affecting the stability of the entire wind turbine. Even minor changes or damage to the blades during operation can lead to more serious consequences, such as turbine failure or blade breakage. Therefore, tower condition monitoring is crucial.
[0051] In the embodiment of the present invention, in S1, the method for preprocessing the real-time vibration data of the wind turbine tower and the blade is the same, which is: using a sliding window to evenly divide the real-time vibration data at different times into several vibration data groups, extracting the mean of all vibration data in each vibration data group as the vibration group eigenvalue of each vibration data group, and calculating the mean of all vibration group eigenvalues as the vibration eigenvalue, and eliminating the real-time vibration data smaller than the vibration eigenvalue to complete the preprocessing.
[0052] In the present invention, a sliding window is used to divide the vibration data at different times, and vibration data groups of the same size are determined. The mean of the mean values of all vibration data groups is used as the vibration characteristic value, and a size comparison is performed. The vibration data with smaller reference value is eliminated, and the remaining vibration data is used as the latest vibration data, which can objectively and truly reflect the operation status of the wind turbine.

[0062] The standard deviation and variance of vibration data can reflect the degree of data dispersion, so the feature matrix is constructed based on the standard deviation. Since wind turbines generally have multiple blades, the variance is calculated to reflect the data characteristics.
[0063] In an embodiment of the present invention, in S22, the specific method for generating the tower characteristic matrix is: calculating the standard deviation between every two adjacent latest vibration data in the wind turbine tower vibration sequence, generating a tower standard deviation sequence, and generating the tower characteristic matrix according to the tower standard deviation sequence.

[0074] The calculation formula for the error coefficient U of the latest vibration data of the wind turbine tower is:
[0075]
[0076] Where, P represents the number of all the latest vibration data of the wind turbine tower, u p represents the latest vibration data of the p-th wind turbine tower, X represents the tower characteristic matrix, and E represents the unit matrix;
