| Summary: | The feature extraction and pattern recognition techniques are of great importance to assess the insulation condition of gas-insulated switchgear. In this work, the ultra-high-frequency partial discharge (PD) signals generated from four types of typical insulation defects are analysed using S-transform, and the greyscale image in time-frequency representation is divided into five regions according to the cutoff frequencies of TE(m)(1) modes. Then, the three low-order moments of every subregion are extracted and the feature selection is performed based on the J criterion. To confirm the effectiveness of selected moment features after considering the electromagnetic modes, the support vector machine, k-nearest neighbour and particle swarm-optimised extreme learning machine (ELM) are utilised to classify the type of PD, and they achieve the recognition accuracies of 92, 88.5 and 95%, respectively. In addition, the results show that the ELM offers good generalisation performance at the fastest learning and testing speeds, thus more suitable for a real-time PD detection.
