This paper proposes a methodology for identifying the decision of microgrid islanding through feature extraction and K-nearest neighbor technique. The methodology shows high accuracy and short detection time in determining islanding decisions even in the presence of noise, with the ability to effectively distinguish between islanding and non-islanding.
This paper proposes a methodology to identify the decision of microgrid islanding. This methodology is two stages: feature extraction and classification stages. In the feature extraction, instantaneous three phase voltage and current measurements are processed using discrete Fourier transform and the symmetrical components of voltage, current and the voltage times current of the second order harmonic are extracted. These nine extracted features are inputs to the second stage that is based on a machine learning algorithm called K-nearest neighbor technique (KNN). In KNN, a small part of the processed data is trained to get the predictor model that is used to the residual data to identify the islanding decision. A MATLAB simulation model is implemented to simulate the intentional and unintentional islanding events and a lab experiment is set up to make these islanding events practically. In addition, the impact of different types of distributed generation are studied to assess their impacts on the performance of the proposed methodology. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed methodology has the ability to identify the correct islanding decision with the presence of noise with high accuracy and small detection time. In addition, the methodology has the capability to distinguish between islanding and non-islanding. The comparison with other algorithms shows a higher accuracy, dependability, security and a smallest islanding detection time.
