Application Abstract: | Systems and methods for new systems and methods for detecting power quality disturbances, such as faults. The approach is based on the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) – a data-driven method to estimate linear dynamics whose eigenvalues and eigenvectors approximate those of the Koopman operator. The approach uses the real part of the main eigenvalue estimated by the DMD as the key indicator that a power quality event has occurred. The disclosed systems and methods can be used to detect events using current and voltage signals to distinguish different faults. Because the proposed method is window-based, the effect that the window size has on the performance of the approach is analyzed. |
