Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power system monitoring and fault diagnosis, and in particular to a method and system for detecting insulator self-explosion faults based on sound data. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, my country's power industry has shown a booming development trend. With the continuous growth of the national economy, the demand for electricity has steadily increased, prompting the power industry to usher in a comprehensive upgrade and expansion. The scale of the national power grid has further expanded. By 2024, the total length of 110 kV and above transmission lines has exceeded 1.5 million kilometers, and the coverage of the power grid has further expanded to remote areas. However, the rapid development of power construction has also brought a series of problems, especially in the operation of transmission lines. In particular, the external operating environment of the power grid has caused damage and shedding of key components of the transmission line, such as self-explosion of insulators, damage to insulators, and breakage of wires on the guy tower. These faults have seriously affected the normal operation of the transmission lines and caused huge losses to the social economy.

[0003] With the increase of transmission lines, the demand for transmission capacity and voltage level is also growing rapidly, so ensuring transmission safety is a key prerequisite for meeting the demand for power supply. However, insulators in transmission lines are easily damaged by various external factors, such as thunderstorms, strong winds, etc. These factors cause the aging of various devices on the line and may cause insulator failures, such as: Insulator contamination and pollution: Since the surface of the insulator is exposed to the air for a long time, it is easy to accumulate dust, salt, dirt, etc. These pollutants will reduce the surface resistance of the insulator, resulting in a decrease in insulation performance and increasing the risk of flashover and breakdown on the surface of the insulator; Insulator flashover and breakdown: In humid weather or extreme environmental conditions, pollutants on the surface of the insulator will promote the occurrence of flashover discharge and may even cause the breakdown of the insulator, thereby affecting the stable operation of the power grid; Insulator aging and deterioration: Insulator materials will age over time, causing their mechanical strength and insulation performance to decrease, thereby affecting their stability and reliability during power transmission; Insulator mechanical damage: For example, storms or other natural disasters may cause insulators to suffer mechanical vibration or direct damage, which may cause the insulator to rupture or break, requiring timely replacement or repair; Insulator electric shock: Natural electric shocks such as lightning may directly cause damage or breakdown of insulators, causing serious impacts on transmission lines and power facilities.

[0004] Therefore, as a vital electrical insulation and mechanical support device in the transmission line, it is very important to regularly inspect and maintain insulators. At present, insulator inspection is a vital part of power system maintenance. Its main purpose is to ensure that insulators can effectively prevent electrical equipment and circuits from being affected by moisture, pollution or other damaging factors during operation.

[0005] Traditional inspection methods require inspectors to carry handheld instruments and climb pole towers. Facing harsh geological environments, this not only affects work efficiency, but also poses a threat to the health of inspectors. In addition, manual inspections are labor-intensive, and the quality of inspections is easily affected by subjective factors. Especially in harsh environments, the scope of inspections is severely limited. In recent years, with the development of computer vision and image processing technology, visual inspection is moving towards intelligence and automation. High-resolution cameras combined with drones can automatically identify defects on the surface of insulators, such as using image segmentation and pattern recognition technology to detect cracks, dirt or foreign objects. Power grid companies have gradually introduced image detection to replace traditional manual inspection methods for power facility inspections. However, for small parts of transmission line insulators, it is difficult for drones to collect images and the recognition accuracy is not high. Therefore, the method of deploying sound sensors is used to accurately identify insulator self-explosion failures. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the above existing problems, the present invention is proposed.

[0007] Therefore, the present invention provides an insulator self-explosion fault detection method based on sound data, which can collect the sound signal of the insulator during operation in real time through the sound sensor, continuously monitor the state of the insulator, and detect abnormalities in time.

The specific expression is as follows:

[0010] F s ≥2f

[0011] Among them, F s is the sampling frequency, and f is the sampling frequency of the insulator sound signal.

[0012] As a preferred solution of the insulator self-explosion fault detection method based on sound data described in the present invention, wherein: the preprocessing includes: after the sensor sound recognition device collects the sound data, the original sound signal contains environmental noise and silent segments, and the sound signal noise reduction algorithm and the sound signal endpoint detection algorithm are used to analyze and process the sound signal;

[0013] By decomposing the spectrum of the original sound signal and removing the part below the threshold according to the preset amplitude threshold, the influence of background noise is weakened or eliminated. The processed amplitude spectrum is combined with the original phase spectrum, and then inversely transformed to finally obtain a clear time domain signal;

[0014] The signal is divided into frames and then discrete Fourier transformed to obtain the amplitude:

[0015]

[0016]

[0017] Among them, X f (k) represents the amplitude of the i-th frame component, x i (n) indicates the i-th frame signal obtained by frame processing, n indicates an independent variable, j indicates an imaginary number, k indicates a signal, k=0, 1, ..., N-1, N indicates the length of each frame, XA i (k) represents x i (n) phase spectrum;

The discrete Fourier transform is also performed, and the result is Z f (k), assuming that the noise is divided into M frames, the average amplitude of the entire environmental noise is:

[0019]

[0020] Subtracting the amplitude of the noise from the amplitude of the insulator sound signal is the spectrum subtraction principle, and the amplitude spectrum XP f (k) is:

[0021]

[0024] The collected transmission tower insulator sound signal has the characteristics of short-term stability. The short-time average value zero-crossing rate is used to represent the sound characteristics. The calculation expression of the short-time average value zero-crossing rate is as follows:

[0026] Among them, x n Indicates the sound signal of the insulator during operation; sgn[x n (n)] is a symbolic function, expressed as follows:

[0027]

[0028] Add the window function to the short-time average zero-crossing rate calculation, that is:

[0029]

[0030] The window function expression is as follows:

[0031]

[0032] Among them, N 1 Represents the frame length of the abnormal target sound signal.

[0033] As a preferred solution of the insulator self-explosion fault detection method based on sound data described in the present invention, the Mel coefficient extraction process includes using a spectrogram to capture the frequency and energy variation characteristics. The insulator sound signal is a non-stationary time-varying signal. After a short-term analysis and processing of the signal through a frame splitting and windowing operation, it is regarded as a stationary signal, and then the insulator audio containing rich acoustic features is extracted and utilized;

[0034] The spectrogram combines time domain information and frequency domain information and presents it in the form of image modeling. It includes the main acoustic characteristic parameters of frequency, amplitude, and energy. The Mel frequency cepstral coefficient feature collects high-frequency information using the Mel filter by simulating the human hearing mechanism. The audio signal with a frequency unit of Hz is converted to a signal with a Mel unit. The conversion formula is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] Where, f is the Hertz scale;

[0037] Use the Mel filter to filter each frame of signal, and use the output formula of the Mel filter bank:

[0046] The prepared training data set is input into the neural network for training. The training process uses the back propagation algorithm to update the weights and biases in the network to minimize the error between the predicted results and the actual labels. The LM algorithm is used:

[0047] x s+1 =x s -(H+αI) -1 G

[0048] Among them, H is the matrix of multidimensional vectors, G is the first-order gradient of multidimensional vectors, xs is the function extreme value of the previous step, α is the step size, and I is the identity matrix;

[0049] Use the test data set to evaluate the performance of the trained neural network model. Input the test data into the network for prediction, compare it with the actual label, and calculate the accuracy and recall evaluation indicators to measure the performance of the model.

[0050] The audio data collected by the sound sensor is transformed by Mel coefficient extraction, and the Mel spectrum obtained after transformation is input into the trained neural network model for real-time target recognition. The prediction results are obtained by extracting features from the image and forward propagation of the neural network to realize the identification of insulator self-explosion faults.

[0051] Another object of the present invention is to provide an insulator self-explosion fault detection system based on sound data, which can effectively improve the automation and intelligent management level of the power system and is of great significance to ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power grid.

[0054] The preprocessing module performs noise reduction and endpoint detection processing on the collected original sound signal;

[0055] The feature extraction module extracts features from the preprocessed sound signal and converts it into a Mel-spectrogram feature image;

[0056] The BP neural network training module uses the BP neural network to train the extracted features to identify and classify the operating status of the insulator;

[0057] The fault detection and identification module extracts and transforms the real-time audio data collected by the sound sensor through Mel coefficients, and inputs the transformed Mel spectrogram into a trained neural network model to perform real-time target recognition.

[0058] A computer device comprises a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores a computer program, and is characterized in that when the processor executes the computer program, steps of a method for detecting insulator self-explosion faults based on sound data are implemented.

[0059] A computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, wherein when the computer program is executed by a processor, the computer program implements the steps of an insulator self-explosion fault detection method based on sound data.

[0071] Example 1, reference Figure 1 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides an insulator self-explosion fault detection method based on sound data, comprising:

[0072] S1: The sound sensor is used to collect the sound signal of the insulator during operation, and the collected sound signal of the insulator is preprocessed and the endpoint detection is performed.

[0073] Furthermore, the collecting of the sound signal of the insulator during operation includes collecting the normal operation sound of the insulator at the transmission line tower and the abnormal sound signal of self-explosion respectively through the sound sensor, and the sampling frequency needs to be greater than or equal to twice the highest frequency of the insulator sound signal, so that the sampling value contains all the information of the original sound signal, and the sampled sound signal is restored to the original sound signal without distortion. The specific expression is as follows:

[0074] F s ≥2f

[0075] Among them, F s is the sampling frequency, and f is the sampling frequency of the insulator sound signal.

[0076] It should be noted that the pre-processing includes: after the sensor sound recognition device collects the sound data, the original sound signal contains environmental noise and silent segments, and the sound signal noise reduction algorithm and the sound signal endpoint detection algorithm are used to analyze and process the sound signal;

[0077] By decomposing the spectrum of the original sound signal and removing the part below the threshold according to the preset amplitude threshold, the influence of background noise is weakened or eliminated. The processed amplitude spectrum is combined with the original phase spectrum, and then inversely transformed to finally obtain a clear time domain signal;

[0078] The signal is divided into frames and then discrete Fourier transformed to obtain the amplitude:

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] Among them, X f (k) represents the amplitude of the i-th frame component, x i (n) indicates the i-th frame signal obtained by frame processing, n indicates an independent variable, j indicates an imaginary number, k indicates a signal, k=0, 1, ..., N-1, N indicates the length of each frame, XA i (k) represents x i (n) phase spectrum;

[0082] The environmental noise signal is framed, and the length of each frame is the same as the frame length N of the insulator sound signal. The discrete Fourier transform is also performed, and the result is Z i (k), assuming that the noise is divided into M frames, the average amplitude of the entire environmental noise is:

[0083]

[0084] Subtracting the amplitude of the noise from the amplitude of the insulator sound signal is the spectrum subtraction principle, and the amplitude spectrum XP f (k) is:

[0085]

[0086] The amplitude spectrum XP obtained by spectral subtraction i (k) and the phase spectrum XA of the original signal f(n) i (k), the inverse Fourier transform is the signal Xp after spectrum subtraction i (n).

[0087] It should also be noted that the endpoint detection includes that when adjacent sampling points have different algebraic signs, they are called zero crossing points, the number of zero crossing points is called the zero crossing rate, and the zero crossing rate feature extraction is to discriminate the signal amplitude in the time domain, and obtain an effective signal feature vector by detecting the change law of the signal zero crossing point;

[0088] The collected transmission tower insulator sound signal has the characteristics of short-term stability. The short-time average value zero-crossing rate is used to represent the sound characteristics. The calculation expression of the short-time average value zero-crossing rate is as follows:

[0089]

[0090] Among them, x n Indicates the sound signal of the insulator during operation; sgn[x n (n)] is a symbolic function, expressed as follows:

[0091]

[0092] Add the window function to the short-time average zero-crossing rate calculation, that is:

[0093]

[0094] The window function expression is as follows:

[0095]

[0096] Among them, N 1 Represents the frame length of the abnormal target sound signal.

[0097] S2: Converted into Mel-spectrogram feature image through Mel coefficient extraction process.

[0098] Furthermore, the Mel coefficient extraction process includes using a spectrogram to capture the changing characteristics of frequency and energy. The insulator sound signal is a non-stationary time-varying signal. After a short-term analysis and processing of the signal through a frame-by-frame windowing operation, it is regarded as a stationary signal, and then the insulator audio containing rich acoustic features is extracted and utilized;

[0099] The spectrogram combines time domain information and frequency domain information and presents it in the form of image modeling. It includes the main acoustic characteristic parameters of frequency, amplitude, and energy. The Mel frequency cepstral coefficient feature collects high-frequency information using the Mel filter by simulating the human hearing mechanism. The audio signal with a frequency unit of Hz is converted to a signal with a Mel unit. The conversion formula is as follows:

[0100]

[0101] Where, f is the Hertz scale;

[0102] Use the Mel filter to filter each frame of signal, and use the output formula of the Mel filter bank:

[0103]

[0104] Where x(t) is the number after FFT transformation, m is the number of the Mel filter, and H is the Mel filter bank. m (k) is a series of triangular filters of equal height:

[0105]

[0106] Where, f(m) is the center frequency;

[0107] The insulator sound signal is preprocessed, including noise reduction, framing and windowing. After applying the window function to each frame, it is converted into a frequency domain signal through FFT and mapped to the Mel frequency scale using the Mel filter bank to generate the final Mel spectrogram.

[0108] S3: Use BP neural network to identify and classify the generated Mel images and detect the operating status of insulators in real time.

[0109] Furthermore, the use of the BP neural network to identify and classify the generated Mel images includes preparing Mel spectra of normal operation and self-explosion of insulators as training data sets, and the data covers various types of insulator operating conditions, including images of normal operation of insulators and images of self-explosion faults of insulators;

[0110] The color histogram is used to describe the color features of the image, the gray-level co-occurrence matrix is ​​used to extract the texture features of the image, and the Canny edge detection algorithm is used to calculate the rate of change of pixel values ​​in the image to detect boundary pixels.

[0111] It should be noted that the use of the BP neural network to identify and classify the generated Mel images also includes constructing a back propagation neural network model for image recognition, wherein the input layer receives a feature vector as input, the hidden layer includes a plurality of neurons, and the output layer represents the classification result;

[0112] The prepared training data set is input into the neural network for training. The training process uses the back propagation algorithm to update the weights and biases in the network to minimize the error between the predicted results and the actual labels. The LM algorithm is used:

[0114] Among them, H is the matrix of multidimensional vectors, G is the first-order gradient of multidimensional vectors, x sis the function extreme value of the previous step, α is the step size, and I is the identity matrix;

[0115] Use the test data set to evaluate the performance of the trained neural network model. Input the test data into the network for prediction, compare it with the actual label, and calculate the accuracy and recall evaluation indicators to measure the performance of the model.

[0116] The audio data collected by the sound sensor is transformed by Mel coefficient extraction, and the Mel spectrum obtained after transformation is input into the trained neural network model for real-time target recognition. The prediction results are obtained by extracting features from the image and forward propagation of the neural network to realize the identification of insulator self-explosion faults.
