[0052] The protection device in this embodiment is a differential protection device, which can be implemented by a combination of a protection relay, a circuit breaker, an isolating switch and a control circuit.

[0053] The characteristic wave injection device in this embodiment is a power electronic converter, and an isolated single-phase inverter can be used.

[0054] The data processing module in this embodiment is a microprocessor, which can be implemented by combining a signal sampler, a digital filter and a data storage device.

[0055] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0056] The data flow relationship of the DC traction network differential protection system or bilateral traction network power supply system of the utility model during operation is as follows: Figure 2As shown, the first current detector 7 measures the first current on the first DC feeder 19, and the current data is extracted by the first data processing module 9 to inject the first characteristic wave injected by the first characteristic wave injection device 5 into the first DC feeder 19, and the first data processing module 9 transmits the first current and the first characteristic wave to the first 5G communication module 11, the second current detector 8 measures the second current on the second DC feeder 20, and the current data is extracted by the second data processing module 10 to inject the second characteristic wave injected by the second characteristic wave injection device 6 into the second DC feeder 20, and the second data processing module 10 transmits the second current and the second characteristic wave to the second 5G communication module 12, the third current detector 13 measures the third current flowing through the subway vehicle electrical equipment 16, and the current data is extracted by the third data processing module 14 to inject the first characteristic wave and the second characteristic wave, and the third data processing module 14 transmits the first characteristic wave and the second characteristic wave to the first 5G communication module 12. Three 5G communication modules 15, the first 5G communication module 11, the second 5G communication module 12, and the third 5G communication module 15 transmit data to the subway operation control center (OCC) 17, which calculates and analyzes, and sends out the first protection device 3 action signal, the second protection device 4 action signal, the first characteristic wave injection device 5 start signal, and the second characteristic wave injection device 6 start signal according to the situation. The first protection device 3 action signal and the first characteristic wave injection device 5 are transmitted to the first 5G communication module 11, and then transmitted to the first protection device 3 and the first characteristic wave injection device 5 by the first 5G communication module 11 respectively. The second protection device 4 action signal and the second characteristic wave injection device 6 are transmitted to the second 5G communication module 12, and then transmitted to the second protection device 4 and the second characteristic wave injection device 6 by the second 5G communication module 12 respectively, so as to achieve the purpose of real-time monitoring and rapid protection.

[0057] like Figure 3 The working principle diagram of the present embodiment is shown. The first current detector 7 and the second current detector 8 are used to measure the first current on the first DC feeder 19 and the second current on the second DC feeder 20 respectively. After the first current and the second current are found to be abnormal, the first characteristic wave injection device 5 and the second characteristic wave injection device 6 are started. After a certain delay, the first data processing module 9 and the second data processing module 10 extract the first characteristic wave and the second characteristic wave on the DC feeder. The third data processing module 14 extracts the first characteristic wave and the second characteristic wave flowing through the subway vehicle. It is confirmed by calculation and comparison whether a fault has occurred. If it is confirmed that there is no fault, the protection returns and stops the injection of the characteristic wave. If it is confirmed that there is a fault, the first protection device 3 and the second protection device 4 are activated to cut off the power supply at both ends. The control center 17 determines the section where the fault occurs by the amplitude of the abnormal first current and the second current, so as to achieve the purpose of reliable protection and rapid maintenance.

[0058] Among them, the principle and basis for determining whether a fault has occurred are specifically as follows: when the DC traction network is operating normally, including the startup process of the subway vehicle, the characteristic wave extracted from the DC feeder is basically consistent with the characteristic wave current amplitude flowing through the subway vehicle. When a short circuit fault occurs in the DC traction network, the short-circuit branch causes the characteristic wave to be shunted and the loop impedance to be reduced, resulting in the characteristic wave current amplitude extracted from the DC feeder being increased compared to normal circumstances, while the characteristic wave current amplitude flowing through the subway vehicle will decrease and approach zero. At this time, the characteristic wave extracted from the DC feeder is much larger than the characteristic wave current amplitude flowing through the subway vehicle, and this fault characteristic is used as the basis for determining whether a fault has occurred.

[0059] Although the present invention has been disclosed as above in terms of preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the technology may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the definition of the claims.
