A risk warning method for steady-state power quality based on VMD-LSTM and fuzzy model

Abstract

The risk warning for steady-state power quality in the power grid is essential for its prevention and management. However, current risk warning methods fall short in predicting the power quality trend while accounting for potential risks. Consequently, this study introduces a novel steady-state power quality risk warning method utilizing VMD-LSTM and a fuzzy model. Firstly, a power quality index prediction method based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) and long short-term memory (LSTM) is proposed. This approach significantly enhances prediction accuracy. Secondly, a power quality risk warning method incorporating kernel density estimation (KDE) and a fuzzy model is proposed, which systematically addresses the uncertainty associated with power quality risks. To validate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed method, experiments are conducted using field monitoring data from a residential load in southern China. The results affirm the reliability and applicability of the proposed method. The simulation results show that the median error of prediction of power quality indexes by the proposed method is 5.03 % during the evaluated time period, and the prediction accuracy is mostly maintained above 90 %.
