Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of data analysis and intelligent fault diagnosis technology for composite faults in power transmission lines, specifically relating to an intelligent diagnosis method for composite faults in power distribution network transmission lines. Background Technology
[0002] As a core infrastructure ensuring the orderly operation of social production and daily life, the stability of the power system is crucial to public safety; among them, the reliability of the distribution network transmission lines, as the key carriers of power transmission, is particularly important. Distribution network transmission lines are exposed to harsh natural environments and frequent operating conditions for extended periods, making them prone to various faults. Failure to identify and address these faults promptly and accurately can lead to serious safety accidents such as large-scale power outages and electrical fires.
[0003] Currently, fault identification in power distribution transmission lines mainly relies on manual analysis and judgment of fault waveform data and protection device operation information. However, with the continuous expansion of the coverage of modern power distribution networks and the increasing complexity of network topology, the frequency and types of faults have increased significantly. Moreover, there are often correlations and couplings between various faults. Manual analysis is not only inefficient and unable to meet the needs of rapid fault diagnosis, but it is also prone to subjective judgment bias, leading to diagnostic errors and affecting the timeliness and accuracy of fault handling.
[0004] In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated enormous application potential in the field of power distribution network fault diagnosis technology due to its powerful data processing capabilities, especially in the scenario of complex fault identification in substations, where its advantages are even more prominent. Currently, researchers mainly apply AI technology to fault diagnosis through two technical approaches: one is to directly input fault data into the AI model, allowing the model to autonomously complete feature learning and fault identification; the other is to combine signal processing technology with AI algorithms to extract features and train the model.
[0005] Currently, commonly used AI models for fault diagnosis in distribution networks include decision trees, support vector machines, and neural networks. However, these models still have significant shortcomings in practical engineering applications: On the one hand, the effective training of such models is highly dependent on massive amounts of high-quality fault data. In scenarios where there are insufficient fault data samples or the data quality is poor, the model struggles to fully learn the fault characteristics, leading to a significant decrease in diagnostic accuracy. On the other hand, existing AI models generally suffer from numerous parameters and a high dependence on the selection of fault features. Inappropriate feature selection not only reduces the computational efficiency of the model but also affects the accuracy of fault diagnosis, making it difficult to meet the needs of accurate and efficient diagnosis of complex faults in large-scale distribution networks. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this invention proposes an intelligent diagnostic method for complex faults in power distribution network transmission lines. This method effectively avoids the subjectivity and inefficiency of manual analysis while improving diagnostic accuracy and enabling intelligent diagnosis of complex faults. Furthermore, by proposing an adaptive stripping factor, the training time of the model is reduced while maintaining accuracy, and a dual-channel architecture is constructed to enhance the model's generalization performance.
[0007] The present invention provides an intelligent diagnosis method for complex faults in power distribution network transmission lines, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Extract the fault portion from the original three-phase voltage signal and splice it together in the order of phases A, B, and C to obtain the fault characteristic signal; Step 2: Use SVMD to decompose the original fault characteristic signal to obtain multiple IMF components; Step 3: Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between each IMF component and the original signal, set the correlation threshold, remove noisy IMF components, and reconstruct the signal. Step 4: Use MTF (Markov Transfer Field) to convert the reconstructed signal into two dimensions to obtain a two-dimensional feature image; Step 5: Construct the DCAdResNet-CBAM model; Step 6: Input the obtained two-dimensional feature image dataset into the DCAdResNet-CBAM model for training and testing to achieve intelligent fault diagnosis.
[0008] Furthermore, step 1 specifically includes: The three-phase signals are scanned sequentially, and the areas where voltage changes abruptly are marked as fault periods. The three-phase fault periods are extracted and spliced together in the order of phases A, B, and C to form the fault characteristic signal.
[0009] Furthermore, step 2 specifically includes: For the input signal Assume it can be decomposed into: , The following conditions must be met: , By solving the minimization problem under the above constraints, the modal components can be extracted. , in, , and As constraints, for Constrained filters for Constrained filter, where t is time. Let i be the time partial derivative operator, and i be the i-th IMF component in the first L-1 orders. It is an L-order mode; The residual signal includes the first L-1 modes obtained. and unprocessed parts ; For convolution operators, The center frequency of the Lth mode. To balance , and The parameter is j; j is the symbol for the imaginary part.
[0010] Furthermore, step 3 specifically includes: Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between each IMF component and the original signal: , Set a correlation threshold: , Remove IMF components with correlation less than the correlation threshold, retain IMF components with correlation greater than the correlation threshold, and reconstruct the signal; in, It is the Pearson correlation coefficient; and These are the observed values of the two variables. and These are the sample means of the two variables.
[0011] Furthermore, step 4 specifically includes: Step 401, for a time series ,Will Divided into There are quantile units, and the quantile corresponding to each data value is . The transitions between quantiles are constructed by calculating them along the time axis in the form of a first-order Markov chain. Markov transition matrix : , Step 402: Construct the matrix To obtain the dependency between location and time step: , in quantiles Located at point quantile The probability after, quantiles Transition to quantiles The transition probability; Step 403: Preferably, different color depths are mapped according to the numerical values of the state matrix elements, thereby visualizing the state matrix M and obtaining a two-dimensional feature image.
[0012] Further, in step 5, the DCAdResNet-CBAM model is constructed, including: The model structure is based on the ResNet-18 model, and CBAM is integrated into each residual block of the ResNet-18 model. Introducing an adaptive stripping factor In ResNet, Remove from each residual block CBAM, It can be 0 or 1; Adaptive updates are performed during training to avoid overfitting due to excessive model complexity; Introducing adaptive fusion parameters A dual-channel mechanism is used to improve the model's generalization ability; the output of channel 1 is... The output of channel 2 is The model output is , It updates adaptively in real time as training progresses.
[0013] Furthermore, step 6 specifically includes: Step 601: Divide the obtained fault feature image data into training and test sets for each class in an 8:2 ratio to form a fault feature image dataset.
[0014] Step 602: Input the fault feature image dataset into the DCAdResNet-CBAM model for training and testing to achieve intelligent fault diagnosis.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1) Traditional line fault diagnosis methods require extracting electrical signal characteristic parameters at the time of the fault. The correlation between these parameters and the fault type relies on expert experience, and inappropriate parameters may fail to reflect the fault characteristics. The method presented in this invention maps electrical signals into two-dimensional image information using MTF (Mean Transformer Type Information), avoiding the subjectivity problem of parameter selection in traditional fault diagnosis methods. 2) The DCAdResNet-CBAM model constructed in this invention proposes an adaptive stripping factor to reduce the model training parameters while ensuring accuracy, thereby improving training effect and reducing training time; and constructs a dual-channel structure to improve the generalization performance of the model, and proposes an adaptive fusion parameter to dynamically adjust the output weights of different channels, thereby improving the diagnostic effect and generalization performance of the model in handling complex tasks.
