Detection and analysis of distribution power quality disturbance based on complex wavelet transform and RBF network

摘要

A novel method to detect power quality disturbance of distribution power system combing complex wavelet transform (WT) with radial basis function (RBF) neural network is presented. The paper tries to explain to design complex supported orthogonal wavelets by Morlet compactly supported orthogonal real wavelets, and then explore the extraction of disturbance signal to obtain the feature information, and finally propose several novel wavelet combined information (CI) to analyze the disturbance signal, superior to real wavelet analysis result. The feature obtained from WT coefficients are inputted into RBF network for power quality disturbance pattern recognition. The power quality disturbance recognition model is established and the synthesized method of recursive orthogonal least squares algorithm (ROLSA) with improved Givens transform is used to fulfill the network structure and parameter identification. By means of choosing enough samples to train the recognition model, the type of disturbance can be obtained when signal representing fault is inputted to the trained network. The results of simulation analysis show that the complex WT combined with RBF network are more sensitive to signal singularity, and found to be significant improvement over current methods in real-time detection and better noise proof ability.
