Abstract |
This study is focused on solution to the problem that may occur due to noise signals when using the image obtained through the conventional partial discharge preprocessing methods as inputs to the CNN-based partial discharge pattern classifier. To solve such problem, a new data preprocessing method is proposed by considering a projection technique. In the data information obtained through the conventional partial discharge preprocessing methods, data information of useless noise signal leads to the problem of performance degradation when constructing highly qualified pattern classifier based on the data information of partial discharge signal. The proposed preprocessing method called as ‘Projection’ in this study is designed to solve this problem and improve a classification performance of CNN-based partial discharge pattern classifier. First of all, through GIS simulation, one-dimensional partial discharge data is obtained as five cases such as corona discharge, floating discharge, insulator discharge, free particle discharge, and steady state (noise) in an environment with a noise signal by using a UHF sensor. After that, by applying the two conventional partial discharge preprocessing methods such as PRPS(Phase Resolved Pulse Sequence), PRPD(Phase Resolved Partial Discharge) and the proposed partial discharge preprocessing method, one-dimensional partial discharge data is transformed into 3 data types such as image set of PRPS, image set of PRPD, and image set of Projection. Finally each image set is used as inputs to the designed CNN-based partial discharge pattern classifier. Through the comparative analysis of the feature maps of each layer in CNN as well as the performance accuracy of partial discharge pattern classification for each image set, the superiority of the proposed preprocessing method is demonstrated. |
