Separation Algorithm of the Single Channel Mixed Noise in 330kV Substation

With the increasing investment in the construction of power facilities and the use of higher voltage level, the noise generated by high voltage substation has become an unavoidable issue. The noise of the high-voltage substation is a mixture which is mixed by different noise sources. The mixed noise must be separated to several independent noise signals firstly for researching. An algorithm combined with the Wavelet Transform and the Sparse Component Analysis was presented in this paper which can separate the single channel mixed noise signal of high-voltage substation. The single channel blind source separation can be changed to the underdetermined blind source separation by setting two augmented signals which are the low-frequency part and the high-frequency part separated from the original noise signal by the Wavelet Transform. Then the signals of different noise sources can be separated by the Sparse Component Analysis. It is proved by the simulation and experiment in 330kV high-voltage substation that the algorithm can solve not only the underdetermined blind source separation, but also the single-channel blind source separation effectively.
