Full-Scale Reconstruction for Transmission Line Galloping Curves Based on Attitudes Sensors

الملخص EN

Caused by strong winds or nonuniform icing, conductor galloping is one of the major hazards that should be monitored in a timely fashion.

In this paper, we proposed a new full-scale reconstruction method for transmission line curves based on the attitude sensors that uses only the tangential information and arc-length constraint.

Meanwhile, a comparatively low-complexity algorithm is presented: (1) quaternion rotation to generate the tangent vectors; (2) a modified B-spline global interpolation to evaluate the curvature information; and (3) a linear mapping method to correct reconstruction curves.

Moreover, sensors placement method is put forward according to the galloping features.

Finally, both simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can accurately reconstruct the galloping curves in a relatively short time, which fulfills the requirement of the real-time galloping monitoring system.
