Fault Diagnosis Method for MMC-HVDC Based on Bi-GRU Neural Network

Abstract

The Modular Multilevel Converter-High Voltage Direct Current (MMC-HVDC) system is recognized worldwide as a highly efficient strategy for transporting renewable energy across regions. As most of the MMC-HVDC system electronics are weak against overcurrent, protections of the MMC-HVDC system are the major focus of research. Because of the insufficiencies of the conventioned fault diagnosis method of MMC-HVDC system, such as hand-designed fault thresholds and complex data pre-processing, this paper proposes a new method for fault detection and location based on Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (Bi-GRU). The proposed method has obvious advantages of feature extraction on the bi-directional structure, and it simplifies the pre-processing of fault data. The simplified pre-processing avoids the loss of valid information in the data and helps to extract detailed fault characteristics, thus improving the accuracy of the method. Extensive simulation experiments show that the proposed method meets the speed requirement of MMC-HVDC protections (2 ms) and the accuracy rate reaches 99.9994%. In addition, the method is not affected by noise and has a high potential for practical applications.

An integrated energy system scheduling method based on SSA-BI-GRU multivariate load forecasting

“…However, changes in a certain type of load are often influenced by factors such as other loads and the external environment. Therefore, adopting a bidirectional GRU model to solve the problem of mutual interference among influencing factors will improve the effectiveness of multivariate load forecasting [11] .…”

A life prediction method based on MDFF and DITCN-ABiGRU mixed network model

“…It does not consider the correlation factors of the previous time characteristics and the next time information characteristics. Therefore, this paper uses the BiGRU network model to realize the learning of both the historical time input feature data and the current input feature data and merge the future feature data information [ 23 ]. The structure of the BiGRU network model is shown in Fig.…”
