Partial discharge detection is an important means of insulation diagnosis of electrical equipment. To effectively suppress the periodic narrowband and white noise interferences in the process of partial discharge detection, a partial discharge interference suppression method based on singular value decomposition (SVD) and improved empirical mode decomposition (IEMD) is proposed in this paper. First, the partial discharge signal with periodic narrowband interference and white noise interference x(t) is decomposed by SVD. According to the distribution characteristics of single values of periodic narrowband interference signals, the singular value corresponding to periodic narrowband interference is set to zero, and the signal is reconstructed to eliminate the periodic narrowband interference in x(t). IEMD is then performed on x(t). Intrinsic mode function (IMF) is obtained by EMD, and based on the improved 3σ criterion, the obtained IMF components are statistically processed and reconstructed to suppress the influence of white noise interference. The methods proposed in this paper, SVD and SVD + EMD, are applied to process the partial discharge simulation signal and partial discharge measurement signal, respectively. We calculated the signal-to-noise ratio, normalized correlation coefficient, and mean square error of the three methods, respectively, and the results show that the proposed method suppresses the periodic narrowband and white noise interference signals in partial discharge more effectively than the other two methods.
Partial discharge (PD) is an important metric for the insulation diagnosis of power equipment. However, its detection is affected by the strong electromagnetic interference generated by pulse square voltage. We therefore propose a power interference suppression method for partial discharges under pulse square voltage based on a quadratic measurement method. We conduct analysis of the topology circuit when partial discharge occurs in the insulation test sample and introduce the basic principle of the secondary measurement method according to the superposition principle and the linear relationship between the square voltages at different peak values. We verify the feasibility of this method by simulating a PD signal with power interference. Subsequently, we use the successive interception comparison method to solve the non-correspondence of the two initial measurement points problem and design and manufacture the transformer turn-to-turn oil-paper insulation test sample and experimental tank. By measuring the PD starting voltage of the insulation test sample under the power frequency voltage, we determined the first measurement voltage under the pulse square voltage and obtained the signal x1(t) to subsequently measure the PD signal x2(t). According to the proposed successive interception comparison method, the signal x1(t) is processed, and the secondary measurement method suppresses the power interference of the measured signal x2(t). We demonstrate that the proposed method effectively suppresses the power interference in PD detection under a pulse square voltage.
This paper presents an integrated design of a multimode and multifrequency miniaturized handset antenna working at the lower band (0.24–0.7 GHz) with linear polarization and higher band (1.98–2.01 GHz and 2.17–2.20 GHz) with circular polarization simultaneously. At the higher band, the quadrifilar helix antenna (QHA) is utilized with each arm developed into two arms of different lengths and linearly tapered widths to realize double resonance and increase the bandwidth. Moreover, a helical stub behaving as a director is introduced to improve the antenna gain. At the lower band, the outer conductor of the QHA feedline and four QHA arms are designed to constitute a monopole antenna through proper feeding and introducing four quarter-wavelength short-circuit stubs. With this radiator-sharing technique, the QHA not only works at the higher band with a circular polarization pattern but can act as a monopole antenna working at the lower band with a linear polarization pattern simultaneously. As a result, the size of the antenna can be reduced remarkably. Finally, the proposed antenna is fabricated with a total length of 228 mm and a diameter of 15 mm. At the lower band, the measured S11 is below −8 dB, and the gain is larger than 0.5 dBi. At the higher band, the measured S11 and AR are better than −13 dB and 3 dB, respectively, and the gain within the zenith angle range of 0°−35° is greater than 2.5 dBi, which demonstrates better performance.
