Abstract

Cable termination serves as a crucial carrier for high-speed train power transmission and a weak part of the cable insulation system. Partial discharge detection plays a significant role in evaluating insulation status. However, field testing signals are often contaminated by external corona interference, which affects detection accuracy. This paper proposes a classification model based on wavelet transform (WT) and deep belief network (DBN) to accurately and rapidly identify corona discharge in the partial discharge signals of vehicle-mounted cable terminals. The method utilizes wavelet transform for noise reduction, employing the sigmoid activation function and analyzing the impact of WT on DBN classification performance. Research indicates that this method can achieve an accuracy of over 89% even with limited training samples. Finally, the reliability of the proposed classification model is verified using measured mixed signals.
