An adaptive filter algorithm for on-site partial discharge measurements

TLDR
A PD (partial-discharger) measuring device to improve on-site measurements has been developed that is based on a digital filtering algorithm that suppresses external sinusoidal disturbances effectively.
Abstract
A PD (partial-discharger) measuring device to improve on-site measurements has been developed that is based on a digital filtering algorithm. The adaptive filter reduces periodic interference, e.g. from broadcasting stations. The filter principle is based on a fast Fourier transform that it suppresses external sinusoidal disturbances effectively. Even partial discharges with an apparent charge less than the basic interference level can easily be detected. >

Wavelet-based denoising of partial discharge signals buried in excessive noise and interference

TL;DR: A novel, semi-automatic, and empirical wavelet-based method is proposed to recover PD pulses buried in excessive noise/interference comprising of random, discrete spectral, pulsive, and any combination of these interferences occurring simultaneously and overlapping-in-time with the PD pulses.

Evaluation of digital filters for rejecting discrete spectral interference in on-site PD measurements

TL;DR: A critical study of the performance of several digital filters for rejecting discrete spectral interference in partial-discharge (PD) testing is reported, and the nonadaptive methods are found to be stable against impulsive disturbances, while adaptive methods are unstable.

Partial Discharge Testing of Aerospace Electrical Systems

TL;DR: In this article, two electrical test techniques that can be used to measure partial discharge activity are introduced, and the balanced technique is used to examine the partial discharge performance of four test objects that are stressed with high voltages at varying frequencies of both sine and square waveforms.

A new threshold function for de-noising partial discharge signal based on wavelet transform

TL;DR: A new nonlinear threshold function for de-noising PD signal using wavelet transform (WT) technique that is continuous as the soft threshold function and also uses the unused coefficients which are less than threshold value which are set to zero in different threshold function.

Self-learning digital filter for the field location of partial discharge in cables

TL;DR: In this article, a self-learning digital filter aimed at mitigating the permanent background noise encountered during field tests has been shown to be mainly due to amplitude modulation (AM) radio signals.

The application of the pulse discrimination system to the measurement of partial discharges in insulation under noisy conditions

I. A. Black, +1 more
TL;DR: The test results demonstrate that a single small pulse can be detected when it is buried in interference, and shows that partial discharge characteristics taken under quiet conditions are similar to those recorded with considerable radio and pulse interference.
