Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of active power distribution network safety, and discloses an active power distribution network safety fault positioning method based on integrated synaesthesia and calculation. Background Art

[0002] More and more distributed power sources are connected to the power system, which has changed the power supply mode of the traditional distribution network, transforming it from a single power supply to a multi-power supply. This change makes the topology of the distribution network and the equipment operating environment more complicated. The distribution network is the intermediate link between the power grid and the user. During the transmission process, it is susceptible to the influence of bad weather and irresistible factors, which may cause the distribution network to fail. If the fault is not handled in time, it may affect the stable operation of the power system and have an adverse impact on people's living standards. Therefore, how to quickly and accurately determine the location of the fault point has become an urgent problem to be solved in the fault location of the distribution network.

[0003] The traditional fault location technologies for the access of distributed power sources, such as the implementation of remote monitoring systems, infrared thermal imaging technology, and intelligent sensor networks, require a large amount of equipment investment and technical support, resulting in high costs and failing to meet today's needs. The introduction of the integrated sensing and computing technology achieves a trade-off between perception, communication, and computing on the same platform, saving resources and reducing costs. It combines perception and communication with computing power for real-time analysis to achieve rapid feedback on the system status, and analyzes possible errors in the perception, communication, and computing process, thereby improving the overall safety performance of the system.

[0004] Intelligent algorithms are indispensable in fault location of active distribution networks. Classical whale algorithms, gray wolf algorithms, ant colony algorithms, etc. cannot make decisions quickly and adaptively according to changes in the environment, and have slow convergence speed and are greatly affected by initial values. Meta-reinforcement learning algorithms can solve the above problems due to their strong generalization ability, fast learning speed, and adaptability to diversified tasks. Therefore, this paper finally optimizes system performance through meta-reinforcement learning algorithms. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technology. A method for locating safe faults in an active distribution network based on integrated telepathy and computing is proposed.
