The invention discloses a load event detection method based on mixing of a rank likelihood ratio and physical characteristics, and relates to the technical field of intelligent power grids and non-intrusive load monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring an original aggregated power
signal, and performing multi-scale preprocessing on an active power sequence to extract core power and trend components; a dual-path mixed
discriminant variable is constructed, a statistical path calculates a rank likelihood ratio statistic by using non-parametric rank transformation, and a physical path calculates a physical difference
score through logarithm
space mapping; sensing an average
power level in a current window in real time, dynamically adjusting a fusion
weight factor of a statistical path and a physical path, and generating a mixed sensing
score; performing state transition monitoring on the mixed
perception score by using a finite-state
machine with a
time sequence memory feature, and locking preliminary candidate event points; and finally, gradient fine trimming positioning and physical median consistency
verification are performed on the candidate points, pseudo events are eliminated, and a legal load
event sequence is output. According to the method, the dependence on
Gaussian distribution
hypothesis is eliminated from the mathematics essence, the robustness to non-
Gaussian interference is enhanced, the capture sensitivity for weak load and overlapping events is improved, the calculation overhead is low, and the real-time monitoring requirement of the edge side is met.
