Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fiber optic current transformer technology, specifically relating to a method and system for synergistically improving the key performance of dynamic measurement of fiber optic current transformers. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of power systems towards higher voltage and larger capacity, line relay protection and transformer protection systems based on differential measurement of instantaneous current values place high demands on the dynamic range, frequency response, and signal-to-noise ratio of all-fiber optic current transformers. Traditional electromagnetic current transformers suffer from limitations such as small dynamic range and waveform distortion, leading to serious consequences such as protection maloperation or failure to operate. All-fiber optic current transformers offer advantages such as no magnetic saturation, strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability, no risk of secondary open circuit, simple insulation structure, and no measurement frequency band limitations, enabling them to accurately reflect the dynamic changes of grid current. The measurement method of all-fiber optic current transformers (FOCTs) is non-contact. The inherent insulation characteristics of the sensing fiber ring greatly improve the overall safety of the equipment. Furthermore, since the transformer does not contain electromagnetic induction elements, the transmission of optical signals is not affected by magnetic field interference, providing strong anti-magnetic interference capability and ensuring the measurement accuracy of the transformer even in harsh environments. All-fiber current transformers typically employ closed-loop signal detection technology, which has a large dynamic range and can simultaneously meet the needs of power metering and relay protection. When performing current measurement, the optical fiber is flexibly looped and laid on the object being measured. The optical fiber loop can cover all current channels to ensure accurate measurement. Installation is convenient and reduces the complexity of manual installation.
[0003] However, FOCTs face noise and system oscillation issues in practical applications, primarily due to the influence of numerous factors such as temperature, humidity, electromagnetic interference, optoelectronic device aging, mechanical deformation, and various parasitic effects. Noise affects FOCT performance, consequently impacting measurement accuracy. High signal-to-noise ratio and fast response capability of FOCT data output are crucial for our work. Therefore, we have developed a method and system for synergistically improving key performance aspects of dynamic measurement of all-fiber current transformers. This method significantly enhances the signal-to-noise ratio and step response time of FOCTs, contributing to the advancement of FOCT applications in current sensing. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention addresses the problems existing in the prior art by providing a method and system for synergistically improving the key performance of dynamic measurement of fiber optic current transformers. It can solve the technical problem of ensuring high signal-to-noise ratio and fast response capability of the measurement system due to the influence of many factors such as temperature, humidity, electromagnetic interference, aging of optoelectronic devices, mechanical deformation and various parasitic effects on the performance of FOCT.

[0007] S2. Obtain the forward channel gain parameters and overshoot parameters of the fiber optic current transformer, and construct a second mathematical model with the forward channel gain as input and the corresponding overshoot as output.
[0008] S3. Construct a third mathematical model in the fiber optic current sensing system with common noise as input and corresponding signal-to-noise ratio as output;
[0009] S4. Based on the first mathematical model and the second mathematical model, the MOPSO optimization algorithm is used to construct an objective function with the forward channel gain as the independent variable and the overshoot and step response as the objectives. The two objectives are then optimized to obtain the optimal forward channel gain.
[0010] S5. Based on the forward channel gain value of the optimization independent variable in step S4 as a constraint, and combined with the adjustable range of system parameters, PSO optimization is performed with the goal of maximizing the third mathematical model to determine the system design parameters, so as to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio while maintaining fast step response and low system overshoot in the all-fiber current transformer system.
[0011] Furthermore, in the aforementioned step S1, by changing the detector's received optical power and detector impedance parameters, the value of the forward channel gain is changed, the value of the step response rise time is recorded, and a first mathematical model is constructed using data polynomial fitting with the forward channel gain as input and the corresponding step response rise time as output.
[0012] Furthermore, in step S2 above, by changing the received optical power of the light source and the detector impedance-related parameters, and recording the corresponding forward channel gain and overshoot values, a polynomial of the forward channel gain and overshoot values is fitted, and a second mathematical model is constructed based on the polynomial.

[0019] Furthermore, the expression for the aforementioned second mathematical model is:

[0021] In the formula, y2 is the overshoot, and x is the forward channel gain. This represents the average value of the forward channel gain. B3, B2, B1, and B0 are constants, representing the standard deviation of the forward channel gain.
[0022] Furthermore, in step S4 above, in the MOPSO optimization algorithm, the fitness function consists of several objective functions, as shown in the following equation:
[0023] ,
[0024] In the formula, x is the magnitude of the forward channel gain of the decision variable, and y1 and y2 are the objective functions.
[0025] Furthermore, in step S5 above, to achieve the goal of optimizing the system signal-to-noise ratio, the PSO algorithm's constraints are determined using the signal-to-noise ratio as the objective function and the forward channel gain value. First, the position and velocity of each particle are randomly initialized, and each particle's initial position is taken as its individual optimal position. Then, the performance of each particle is evaluated using the objective function, and its objective function value is recorded. In each iteration, the particle's velocity and position are updated according to the following formula:

To ensure that the position of the particle is within the effective range, constraints are applied to each dimension.

[0044] S3. Construct a third mathematical model for the fiber optic current sensing system, with common noise as input and corresponding signal-to-noise ratio as output, as shown in the following equation:
[0045] ,
[0046] In the formula, SNR is the system signal-to-noise ratio, R is the detector transimpedance, and R D Let P0 be the detector responsivity and P0 be the received optical power of the detector. Here, N is the phase-biased operating point, and V is the number of turns. Dark current, k is the spectral width. B Here, is Boltzmann's constant, T is the absolute temperature, e is the electron charge, and c is the speed of light; For Faraday phase shift, The current to be measured is... For time, In order to transcend time, The average wavelength of the light source The standard deviation of shot noise, The standard deviation of thermal noise voltage, This represents the standard deviation of the relative intensity noise received by the detector. Based on the principle that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the square of the ratio of sensitivity to noise per unit bandwidth, an SNR correlation model is established. The adjustability of the SNR model and system parameters provides possibilities for optimal SNR design.

Based on the first and second mathematical models, using the MOPSO optimization algorithm, with the forward channel gain as the independent variable and the minimum of the overshoot and step response as the objectives, an objective function is constructed, and the optimization of these two objectives is carried out to obtain the optimal forward channel gain. Through the MOPSO optimization algorithm, the optimization of the first and second mathematical models is achieved, determining the value of the forward channel gain and providing constraints for the subsequent optimization of the third mathematical model. The fitness function consists of several objective functions, as shown in the following equation:

This enables the all-fiber current transformer system to maintain a fast step response, low system overshoot, and high signal-to-noise ratio.
[0051] To achieve the optimal system signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the PSO algorithm is constrained using the SNR as the objective function and the forward channel gain value. First, the position and velocity of each particle are randomly initialized, and each particle's initial position is taken as its individual best position (pbest). Then, the performance of each particle is evaluated using the objective function, and its value is recorded. In each iteration, the particle's velocity and position are updated according to the following formula:

It studies the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the all-fiber current transformer and quantitatively analyzes the influence of system parameters on the SNR of the all-fiber current transformer through mathematical derivation. This facilitates the subsequent development of optimization algorithms with the maximum SNR as the objective.
