Abstract:

Non-intrusive electrical appliance identification is the key technology to realize customer-side intelligent sensing in the ubiquitous power Internet of Things.Aiming at the problem that the calculation complexity of the existing non-intrusive electrical appliance identification system is too high and is not conducive to industrialization,a low-cost,low-power consumption,high-precision non-intrusive electrical appliance identification system and the algorithm based on the Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) network are proposed,and they can be applied to an embedded microcontroller.First,the current on the bus is collected synchronously.Second,the proposed multi-parameter detection method is used to judge the switching event of the electrical appliance.Third,the LSTM network is used to process the data before and after the switching time point,and the type of electrical appliance which is switching is obtained.Finally,the current types and quantities of electrical appliances are judged by the cumulative sum.Simulation and measurement results show that only a small amount of data training for a single electric appliance is needed,and that the recognition accuracy of combined electric appliances can be up to 99.6% in the proposed embedded microcontroller system,in which the power consumption is less than 1.5 watts.The proposed algorithm can be further applied to the statistics of the switching time point,service time and total power consumption of each electrical appliance,which provides refined user power consumption information for the smart grid.and provides an important reference for the energy management and optimization in the smart grid.
