The invention relates to the technical field of
electrical equipment detection, and discloses a terahertz time-domain
spectroscopy-based GIS insulating material
nondestructive testing method, which comprises the following steps: acquiring GIS insulating material time-domain signals by using a reflection-type terahertz time-domain
spectroscopy (THz-TDS), and separating and reconstructing defect echoes based on
electromagnetic simulation modeling in combination with
wavelet transform, STFT and a
transmission matrix method; multi-dimensional features are extracted, SVM and RBFNN are trained after
dimensionality reduction, and a classification and quantitative regression model fusing physical constraints is constructed; and inputting a
signal of a sample to be detected into the model to realize rapid, non-contact and accurate detection on the type, size and depth of the defect. The method overcomes the defects that traditional detection is low in efficiency, has damage or is difficult to quantify, the
signal-to-
noise ratio, the sensitivity and the
automation level are remarkably improved, the method can be widely applied to GIS
production quality control, installation acceptance, operation and maintenance monitoring,
health assessment and life prediction, and powerful support is provided for safe and reliable operation of an
electric power system.
