Hidden dangers such as contamination of insulating parts, dampness, conductor connection defects, and metal burrs can easily cause partial discharge. If not monitored and handled in a timely manner, it can lead to insulation breakdown and further induce large-scale power outage accidents. Therefore, accurate and effective partial discharge monitoring technology is of great significance to ensure the stable operation of the power system. At present, various partial discharge monitoring technologies are applied in the power system. However, with the development of the power system and the increasing demand for monitoring, these technologies have gradually exposed some problems.

[0003] From the performance and application requirements of the monitoring technology, the existing mainstream partial discharge monitoring technology has significant shortcomings. The pulse current method has a low detection frequency and is extremely susceptible to electromagnetic interference in complex field environments, which makes it unable to accurately capture weak discharge signals, resulting in inaccurate monitoring results and the possible omission of important partial discharge information. Although the ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave detection method has certain advantages in theory, it requires complex antenna design and signal demodulation circuit in practical application, which not only increases the difficulty of system integration but also significantly increases the cost, limiting its widespread application. At the same time, most existing technologies upload raw monitoring data to the background for analysis. This approach requires a very high communication bandwidth and has a high diagnostic delay, making it difficult to reflect the partial discharge situation in real time. In addition, existing technologies have difficulty in accurately locating the discharge point, which cannot meet the current distributed, small-sized, and low-cost field monitoring requirements and cannot well adapt to the increasingly complex monitoring environment of the power system.

This significantly improves response efficiency, reduces diagnostic latency, and better meets the real-time requirements of on-site monitoring.

[0028] The filter lens 3 is made of quartz material, and after coating, it achieves high transmittance in the 240-280nm wavelength band and visible light cutoff rate ≥99%. The AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 adopts a 4×4 matrix layout. The substrate is made of Si material, and the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure is grown using MOCVD technology. The two-dimensional electron gas mobility is [not specified]. ; The row and column gating readout circuits are integrated on the substrate using CMOS technology, with a row gating voltage of 5V and a column readout circuit bandwidth of 1MHz. The high-performance microcontroller 5 uses the STM32H7 series, with a built-in FPU unit and a main frequency of ≥400MHz, which can meet the real-time computing needs of lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence models. The signal processing module features a micro-amplifier 6 with adjustable gain (20-60dB), an integrated filter bank 7 containing 10kHz high-pass and 1MHz low-pass filter paths, and a multi-channel ADC with a sampling accuracy of 12bit and a sampling rate ≥1MSPS.

The magnetic housing is made of ferrite permanent magnet material with an attraction force of ≥10N and a protection level of IP65, making it suitable for complex environments inside switch cabinets.

[0029] The lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model and its implementation method include the following key contents: Data from the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 was obtained through laboratory simulated discharge experiments and field measurements. At a single sampling moment, the instantaneous response values ​​of all effective detection units in the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 were read to form a matrix representing the spatial intensity distribution of the ultraviolet spot at that moment.

[0030] The lightweight multilayer perceptron AI model comprises one input layer, two hidden layers, and one output layer. The number of neurons in the input layer matches the dimension of the fused feature vector. The first hidden layer contains 128 neurons, and the second hidden layer contains 64 neurons, both using the ReLU activation function to introduce non-linearity and accelerate training convergence. The output layer contains two types of neurons: one type outputs the firing confidence level in the range of 0-1 with a step size of 0.1, and the other type outputs the local discharge levels of early, mid, and late partial discharges. This lightweight multilayer perceptron AI model uses backpropagation for gradient calculation and employs the Adam optimizer to adaptively adjust the network parameters. The loss function is designed as a weighted combination of mean squared error and cross-entropy to synergistically optimize performance for regression and classification tasks.

[0031] After a gallium nitride ultraviolet partial discharge monitoring device is powered on, the weight parameters of the trained lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model are loaded into the memory of a high-performance microcontroller 5. The high-performance microcontroller 5 uses a row and column addressing mechanism to cyclically collect signals from each unit of the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 at a predetermined sampling rate, and constructs an input feature vector which is input into the loaded lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model for forward propagation calculation. After the calculation is completed, the lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model outputs the recognition result, and the control unit uploads the recognition result to the remote monitoring center through a 4G wireless module.

[0032] The working principle of this invention is as follows: There is a polarized electric field pointing towards the GaN layer between the AlGaN layer and the GaN layer. The GaN layer has a quantum well near the AlGaN interface, which has a two-dimensional electron gas. The AlGaN layer has negatively charged DX centers. The specially designed filter lens 3 at the front end of the probe only allows light in the 240-280nm solar-blind ultraviolet band to pass through, which can effectively shield background interference such as visible light and infrared light. When the switch cabinet experiences partial discharge, it will radiate ultraviolet light. After this light is incident on the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4, the electrons in the DX center absorb photon energy and enter the conduction band. Under the action of the polarized electric field, they enter the quantum well, thereby modulating the density of the high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas at the heterostructure interface. Under the action of external bias, a detectable current change is formed, realizing high sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation. In addition, the AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 adopts a matrix-gated readout architecture. The control unit can activate the detectors in the designated area in sequence through the row and column addressing mechanism, and read the photoelectric response signal of each unit in a time-division manner to obtain the spatial distribution information of the ultraviolet spot. The original electrical signal output by the detector will be amplified by the micro amplifier 6, filtered by the integrated filter bank 7, and digitized by the multi-channel analog-to-digital converter 8 in sequence. This completes the time-division conditioning of the multi-channel signal, converting the analog signal into a digital signal that can be processed by the high-performance microcontroller 5, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the signal. The high-performance microcontroller 5 with built-in floating-point unit is preloaded with a lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model trained by laboratory simulation and field measurement data. The high-performance microcontroller 5 will construct the feature vector of the spatial intensity distribution matrix of the ultraviolet spot from the digitized AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4 signal. The lightweight multilayer perceptron artificial intelligence model will perform forward propagation calculation and simultaneously output the discharge confidence (0-1 interval) and partial discharge stage (early, middle and late stages). At the same time, it will estimate the discharge point orientation by combining the spatial distribution information of AlGaN / GaN heterostructure ultraviolet detector array 4, and complete real-time intelligent diagnosis at the edge side without uploading the original data to the backend, which greatly improves the response efficiency and reduces bandwidth dependence. The diagnostic results are uploaded to the remote monitoring center in real time via the 4G wireless transmission module, and the local storage 9 can temporarily store the monitoring data. The device is powered by either a built-in battery or inductive power. The magnetic shell allows the probe to be flexibly attached to the inner wall of the switch cabinet, which is convenient for rapid deployment and the establishment of a distributed monitoring network.
