Partial discharge de-noising based on hybrid particle swarm optimization SWT adaptive threshold

Abstract

A hybrid particle swarm optimization stationary wavelet adaptive threshold denoising (HPO-SWT-ATD) method was proposed to improve the adaptive ability of wavelet transform in partial discharge signal denoising. In the proposed method, the partial discharge signal is decomposed by stationary wavelet transform(SWT) and the multiorder differentiable function based on the Stein unbiased likelihood estimate (SURE) is used as the denoising threshold function. In threshold selection, the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is used for global adaptive search to select the optimal denoising threshold. The de-noising experiments are carried out on the simulated partial discharge signals and the measured partial discharge signals.The experiment results show that, compared with the hard threshold method, particle swarm optimization threshold method, genetic algorithm optimization threshold method, Wiener filter method and modal decomposition method, the proposed method can better remove the white noise in the PD signal, and the denoising signal distortion degree is smaller.
