Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0039] The division of modules in this application is a logical division. There may be other division methods when implemented in actual applications. For example, multiple modules can be combined or integrated into another system, or some features can be ignored or not executed.

[0040] In addition, the connection, coupling or communication in the present application may be a direct connection, coupling or communication between related objects, or an indirect connection, coupling or communication through other devices. Furthermore, the connection, coupling or communication between objects may be electrical or other similar forms, which are not limited in the present application.

[0041] The modules or submodules described independently may be physically separated or not: they may be implemented by software or hardware, and some modules or submodules may be implemented by software, and the processor may call the software to implement the functions of these modules or submodules, and other modules or submodules may be implemented by hardware, such as by hardware circuits. In addition, some or all of the modules may be selected according to actual needs to achieve the purpose of the present application.

[0042] How to distinguish between arcs in high-voltage transmission lines and natural lightning. - Arcs in high-voltage transmission lines and natural lightning will both emit three types of signals: ultraviolet rays, electromagnetic waves, and sound waves.

[0043] Ultraviolet radiation: Ultraviolet light (i.e. UV light) is produced by the ionization of gases. We can use ultraviolet detectors to detect flashes produced by discharges in the air. This light travels from the source to the detector at the speed of light (C = 299,792,458 m / s).

[0044] Electromagnetic waves: Electromagnetic waves can be detected with antennas. This wave is generated by the impulse of electrons traveling in space. Lightning waves are generated by discharges of several million volts. According to experiments, lightning electromagnetic waves have a wave front shape of 1.2 to 50 microseconds and a wave tail of 200 to 500 microseconds. Electromagnetic waves propagate at the speed of light.

[0045] The voltage of a transmission line ranges from a few kilovolts to about 850 kilovolts (the limit of current technology), and this waveform lasts for hundreds of microseconds. Therefore, the shape of the electromagnetic wave's wavefront can determine whether the electromagnetic wave comes from lightning or a transmission line.

[0046] Thunder and lightning: Thunder is an acoustic shock wave caused by the extreme heat produced by lightning. Like all gases, air expands when heated. The faster it is heated, the faster it expands. When air is heated to 30,000°C in a fraction of a second, a phenomenon called "explosive expansion" occurs, forming a shock wave similar to a sonic boom. Sound waves travel at the speed of sound = 343 m / s.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1-2 As shown, a high voltage transmission line arc detection system comprises:

[0048] The signal receiving module is used to receive electromagnetic wave signals generated by lightning and high-voltage transmission lines. Specifically, it is an electronic circuit with an antenna that can pick up electromagnetic waves generated by lightning and high-voltage transmission lines.

[0049] The ultraviolet detection module is used to receive the flash signal generated by the discharge in the air. Specifically, the central spectrum is 200 nanometers (200 nanometers ± 50 nanometers). In order to avoid interference from sunlight, the spectrum range of 150 nanometers to 250 nanometers is selected. This interval is blocked by the atmospheric ozone layer;

[0050] A sound receiving module, used for receiving noise signals of thunder and electric sparks;

[0051] A plurality of transmission modules, wherein the plurality of transmission modules are respectively connected to the signal receiving module, the ultraviolet detection module and the sound receiving module, and are used to process the received signals and transmit them to the neural network calculation module;

[0052] The neural network calculation module is used to receive the processed signal and identify the input signal as a lightning signal or a high-voltage discharge of a high-voltage transmission line.

[0053] The traditional method for detecting high-voltage discharge in transmission lines is to use ultraviolet sensors for quantitative measurement. The problem with this measurement is that it only measures ultraviolet signals, while the ultraviolet rays generated by line discharges will be overwhelmed by the ultraviolet rays generated by lightning discharges. As a result, lightning discharges will be misjudged as line discharges.

[0054] Not only can it quantitatively measure ultraviolet rays, but it can also quantitatively measure electromagnetic waves and sound waves.

[0055] For the measured physical values, a neural network algorithm is used to qualitatively determine whether it is a lightning discharge or a line discharge. This judgment is based on the data learning and prediction capabilities of the neural network, that is, the data transmitted to the neural network includes not only the characteristic signals of ultraviolet rays, electromagnetic waves, and sound waves emitted by lightning discharge, but also the characteristic signals of ultraviolet rays, electromagnetic waves, and sound waves emitted by line discharge. There is a difference between these two signals, which is distinguished by the neural network, and then a judgment is made as to whether line discharge really occurred or lightning discharge just occurred in nature. The interference scene of lightning discharge is then identified and eliminated, thereby improving the accuracy of line discharge detection.

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the neural network computing module includes:

[0057] A neural network model is established, wherein the neural network prediction model includes an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer; and whether high voltage discharge exists when lightning occurs is determined according to the prediction result of the neural network model.

[0058] Specifically, establishing a neural network model includes:

[0059] Acquire test data, extract and normalize test data features, and divide the test data into training set and validation set; train the neural network prediction model through the training set to iteratively update weights and biases, select the optimal weights and biases through the validation set, and output the optimal neural network model.

[0060] The neural network prediction model includes: setting the objective function, which includes:

[0061]

[0062] In the formula, S a is the output of the objective function, ρ is the number of training samples, is the number of hidden layer nodes, Y j is the bias term of the jth node in the hidden layer, β is the input layer input, and λ ik is the kth feature of the i-th sample, X j is the connection weight from the jth hidden layer node to the output node, ξ is the regularization coefficient, μ is the weight coefficient, α ij is the output of the i-th sample at the j-th hidden layer node, γ a is the activation function, κ b is the dimension of the input feature, ε ij is the connection weight from the i-th node in the input layer to the j-th node in the hidden layer.

[0063] An exemplary embodiment of the present invention further includes a loss function:

[0064]

[0065] Where BCELoss(x,y) is the output of the loss function, x i is the true label, y i is the probability value of the model probability, and n is the number of samples.

[0066] Specifically, determining whether high voltage discharge exists when lightning occurs according to the prediction result of the neural network model includes:

[0067] Get the output of the objective function and determine whether the output value is greater than or equal to 0.5. If it is greater than or equal to 0.5, it is determined to be lightning; if it is less than 0.5, it is determined to be an arc.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the transmission module includes a first circuit module, an analog-to-digital conversion module and a Fourier transform module, wherein the first circuit module is connected to the analog-to-digital conversion module, the analog-to-digital conversion module is connected to the Fourier transform module, and the Fourier transform module is connected to the neural network calculation module;

[0069] The first circuit module is used to continue filtering and biasing the received signal and protect the existing circuit structure. Specifically, the output of this circuit is an analog signal. The circuit maintains a maximum value of at least 100 microseconds. If no new signal enters, this maximum value will decay to zero within 1000 microseconds.

[0070] The analog-to-digital conversion module is used to continuously convert the input at several intervals when the input exceeds a set threshold. Specifically, the analog-to-digital conversion module connected to the signal receiving module and the ultraviolet detection module continuously converts the input at intervals of 50 microseconds, and the analog-to-digital conversion module connected to the sound receiving module continuously converts the input at intervals of 1000 microseconds.

[0071] The Fourier transform module is used to convert the input signal into a frequency domain chart. In order to reduce the computing cost, the circuit only detects the moment when the derivative changes its sign.

[0072] The system provided by the present invention mainly includes a signal receiving module, an ultraviolet detection module, a sound receiving module, a transmission module and a neural network calculation module, which receive electromagnetic wave signals generated by lightning and high-voltage transmission lines, receive flash signals generated by discharge in the air, receive noise signals of thunder and electric sparks, and receive processed signals through the neural network calculation module, and identify the input signal as a lightning signal or a high-voltage discharge of a high-voltage transmission line. Through the above content, it is determined whether the result shows that there is a high-voltage discharge when lightning occurs, so as to reduce the probability of false alarms.

[0073] Not only can it quantitatively measure ultraviolet rays, but it can also quantitatively measure electromagnetic waves and sound waves.

[0074] For the measured physical values, a neural network algorithm is used to qualitatively determine whether it is a lightning discharge or a line discharge. This judgment is based on the data learning and prediction capabilities of the neural network, that is, the data transmitted to the neural network includes not only the characteristic signals of ultraviolet rays, electromagnetic waves, and sound waves emitted by lightning discharge, but also the characteristic signals of ultraviolet rays, electromagnetic waves, and sound waves emitted by line discharge. There is a difference between these two signals, and this difference can be easily distinguished through the neural network, and then a judgment is made as to whether the line discharge really occurred or just a lightning discharge occurred in nature, thereby identifying and eliminating the interference scene of lightning discharge, thereby improving the accuracy of line discharge detection.

[0075] Of course, in this embodiment, the test data may also be processed into a data matrix, the test data matrix may be optimized into an operation matrix, and the operation matrix may be used to calculate the prediction.
