- Abstract
This research paper aims to ensure the reliable and efficient operation of grid-connected solid-state transformers (SSTs) by detecting and evaluating various undesirable operating conditions. The study considers different types of faults, including internal faults like open switches and open capacitors, external faults such as symmetrical and asymmetrical faults occurring at various locations of the SST, and abnormalities on the grid side known as sympathetic inrush conditions. To analyze these operating conditions, the secondary current of the high-frequency transformer is normalized and decomposed using the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and wavelet packet transform (WPT). From the DWT and WPT decomposition at multiple levels, several statistical parameters are calculated. These statistical parameters are carefully selected from different decomposition levels to enhance the effectiveness of the detection algorithm utilizing DWT and WPT. In order to quickly identify and classify all operating conditions that impact the performance of the grid-connected SST, a three-layer feedforward artificial neural network (ANN) is employed, using the selected statistical features. The accuracy and efficiency of the ANN-based classification approach are evaluated by assessing the effectiveness of the statistical features obtained from DWT and WPT. Simulation results have been altered by introducing various noise levels to systematically assess the performance of the proposed algorithms. The average accuracy of the DWT-ANN algorithm stands at 97.89%, while the WPT-ANN algorithm achieves a slightly elevated accuracy level of 98.01%. This notable similarity in accuracy curtails from the careful selection of the wavelet function, decomposition level, and feature sets.
