[0044] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0046] An intelligent management and control method based on distributed photovoltaic online diagnosis specifically includes the following steps:

[0047] A1. First, use the collection equipment to collect the operation data of the photovoltaic power station in real time;

[0048] A2, based on the collected data, the data is transmitted to the data control terminal, and the processing operation of the collected data is completed;

[0050] A4. Input the preprocessed real-time data into the trained recurrent neural network and deep neural network fault diagnosis model. The model determines whether the photovoltaic power station has a fault based on the input data and outputs the fault type and fault location.

[0051] A5. Based on the fault diagnosis results, the intelligent management and control system automatically triggers the corresponding early warning and processing mechanism. At the same time, the intelligent management and control system feeds back the fault diagnosis results and processing measures to the operation and maintenance personnel.

[0052] In this embodiment, the collection equipment includes a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a light intensity sensor, a voltage sensor, and a current sensor, and the collected photovoltaic component temperature, humidity, light intensity, voltage, current data and the inverter output voltage, output current, and power data are transmitted to the data control terminal to facilitate data processing operations.

[0053] In this embodiment, the data processing operation of the control terminal in A2 for the collected data is:

[0054] B1: First, the collected raw data is preprocessed to fill missing values, delete duplicate data, and identify and process outliers;

[0055] B2: Convert the preprocessed data into numerical values, and store the required data based on the integration and screening of the numerical values.

[0056] In this embodiment, the decision forest in A3 is constructed as follows:

[0057] C1; collect relevant operating data from each monitoring point of the distributed photovoltaic power generation system, pre-process the collected data, and extract characteristic variables related to fault diagnosis from the original data;

[0058] C2: Generate a decision tree using the extracted data alone, and form a decision forest using multiple decision trees;

[0059] C3: Use the data set to train the decision forest so that each decision tree can perform classification or regression prediction on the input feature variables.

[0060] In a decision forest, each decision tree is independently generated based on the training data set. During the generation process, a bootstrap sampling method is used to randomly extract samples from the original training data set to construct a training subset for each tree. At the same time, when a node is split, a portion of the features are randomly selected for consideration to increase the diversity of the model.

[0061] Decision forests can significantly improve the accuracy of fault diagnosis by constructing multiple decision trees and integrating their output results. Each decision tree can learn different features from the data. Through ensemble learning, the prediction results of multiple decision trees can be combined to obtain more accurate fault diagnosis. Decision forests can adaptively handle these complex situations without frequent adjustments to model parameters, thereby enhancing the robustness and stability of the system.

[0062] In this embodiment, the deep neural network in A4 is used to process high-dimensional data and nonlinear relationships, while the recurrent neural network is used to process time series data and can capture the time dependency in the data. The deep neural network is combined with the recurrent neural network for real-time fault diagnosis of photovoltaic power stations.

[0063] In this embodiment, the recurrent neural network fault diagnosis model in A4 is established in the following manner:

[0065] D2: Design the structure of input layer, hidden layer and output layer. The input layer receives the real-time operation data of the photovoltaic system, the hidden layer captures the timing information, and the output layer outputs the fault diagnosis results.

[0066] D3: Divide the dataset into training set, validation set and test set for model training, validation and testing respectively to train the model.

[0067] In this embodiment, the deep neural network fault diagnosis model in A4 is established as follows:

[0070] E3: Divide the dataset into training set, validation set, and test set for model training, validation, and testing, respectively, to train the model.

[0071] The intelligent management and control method that combines recurrent neural networks and deep neural networks for distributed photovoltaic online diagnosis can fully utilize the advantages of both. The recurrent neural network is responsible for processing time series data and capturing long-term memory, while the deep neural network is responsible for extracting deep features and processing complex nonlinear relationships. This combination makes the fault diagnosis model more accurate, efficient and reliable.

[0072] In this embodiment, the intelligent management and control steps in A5 are:

[0073] F1: Based on the diagnosis results, the intelligent management and control system accurately locates the location and cause of the fault;

[0074] F2: After that, the intelligent management and control system automatically triggers the corresponding early warning and processing mechanism;

[0075] F3: When the performance of the PV modules is detected to be degraded, the system can automatically adjust the working status of the PV modules or issue an early warning to replace the modules; when an inverter failure is detected, the system can automatically switch to a backup inverter or issue a maintenance early warning.

[0076] The intelligent management and control system can monitor the operating status of the distributed photovoltaic system in real time. Once an abnormality or fault is found, it can respond quickly and issue an alarm. This real-time monitoring and rapid response capability helps to detect and solve problems in a timely manner and reduce the impact of faults on the system.

[0077] In summary, firstly, the operation data of the photovoltaic power station is collected in real time by using the collection equipment, and the collected data is transmitted to the data control terminal, and the processing operation of the collected data is completed. Based on the collected data, a distributed photovoltaic operation fault diagnosis decision forest is built, and the training of the decision forest is completed according to the collected data. The pre-processed real-time data is input into the trained recurrent neural network and deep neural network fault diagnosis model. The model determines whether the photovoltaic power station has a fault according to the input data, and outputs the fault type and fault location. According to the fault diagnosis results, the intelligent management and control system automatically triggers the corresponding early warning and processing mechanism. At the same time, the intelligent management and control system feeds back the fault diagnosis results and processing measures to the operation and maintenance personnel.
