Abstract

This paper presents a comparatively contemporary easy to use technique for the identification and classification of voltage variations. The technique was established based on the Gabor Transform and the rule-based classification method. The technique was tested by using mathematical model of Power Quality (PQ) disturbances based on the IEEE Std 519-2009. The PQ disturbances focused were the voltage variations, which included voltage sag, swell and interruption. A total of 80 signals were simulated from the mathematical model in MATLAB and used in this study. The signals were analyzed by using Gabor Transform and the signal pattern, time-frequency representation (TFR) and root-mean-square voltage graph were presented in this paper. The features of the analysis were extracted, and rules were implemented in rule-based classification to identify and classify the voltage variation accordingly. The results showed that this method is easy to be used and has good accuracy in classifying the voltage variation.

Abstract

Detection and classification of power quality (PQ) disturbances are an important consideration to electrical utility companies and many industrial customers so that diagnosis and mitigation of such disturbance can be implemented quickly. Power quality signal consists of stationary and non-stationary events which need a robust signal processing technique to analyse the signals. In this paper, Modified STransform (MST) was used to analyse single and multiple power quality signals. MST is a modified version of S-transform with improved time-frequency resolution. The power quality signals that are considered in this study are voltage swell, sag, interruption, harmonic, interharmonic, transient, sag plus harmonic and swell plus harmonics. The performance of the proposed method has been studied under noisy and unnoisy condition. Hard thresholding technique has been applied with MST while analysing noisy PQ signals. The result shows that MST is able to give higher classification rate with better time and frequency distribution (TFD) spectrum of the PQ disturbances.
