This paper presents an event identification process in complementary feature extractions via convolutional neural network (CNN)-based event classification. The CNN is a suitable deep learning technique for addressing the two-dimensional power system data as it directly derives information from a measurement signal database instead of modeling transient phenomena, where the measured synchrophasor data in the power systems are allocated by time and space domains. The dynamic signatures in phasor measurement unit (PMU) signals are analyzed based on the starting point of the subtransient signals, as well as the fluctuation signature in the transient signal. For fast decision and protective operations, the use of narrow band time window is recommended to reduce the acquisition delay, where a wide time window provides high accuracy due to the use of large amounts of data. In this study, two separate data preprocessing methods and multichannel CNN structures are constructed to provide validation, as well as the fast decision in successive event conditions. The decision result includes information pertaining to various event types and locations based on various time delays for the protective operation. Finally, this work verifies the event identification method through a case study and analyzes the effects of successive events in addition to classification accuracy.
This paper presents a data-driven approach for event classification via a regional segmentation of power systems. The data-driven approach is suitable for the complex power systems under transient conditions, as it directly derives the information from the measurement signal database instead of modeling transient phenomena. However, measurement conditions of real-world power system will have unavoidable missing and bad data. Thus, it is necessary for data-driven model to have a robustness and adaptability about varying environment as well as system configurations and measurement conditions. In this work, the clustering-based regional segmentation of power systems is adopted to improve robustness of the data driven model by maintaining the fixed-input-feature format under varieties of measurement conditions. The clustering technique is applied to electrical buses for regional segmentation, and proposed features of phasor measurement unit (PMU) signals are extracted by integrating PMUs in each region based on wavelet analysis. As a result, the regional segmentation achieves improvement of data driven method for event classification with reduced number of calculations and management of bad data. Finally, we verify the event classification algorithm through a case study and analyze the performance of the algorithm for noise and computation time in addition to classification accuracy.
