Abstract
To overcome the problems existing in the main protection of HVDC transmission lines, such as low reliability and poor ability of resisting high ground resistance fault, this paper proposes a novel non-unit protection method based on S transform. Analysis shows the high and low frequency components of the transient voltage signals suffer from different degrees of attenuation when they pass through the HVDC line boundary. Therefore, according to this characteristic, the voltage signals of specific frequency bands are extracted accurately using S transform, which be used to identify the internal from external faults. By comparing the high and low frequency components generated by the lightning disturbance with those generated by the faults, S transform based energy ratio criterion to identify lightning disturbance is constructed. In addition, for a bipolar HVDC transmission system, a method using the 0 Hz energy difference of S transform of the voltage transient signals is proposed to identify the faulted pole. Simulation results verify the feasibility and validity of the proposed protection method.
