Detecting and analyzing incipient activities of partial discharge can provide useful information to diagnostics and prognostics about transformer insulation. So, partial discharge signals embedded in the electric current at ground conductor are measured using the Rogowski coil. These signals are submitted to noise suppression and the partial discharges waveforms are extracted through different ways: using discrete wavelet transform and using empirical mode decomposition. The comparison of these two methods show that the extraction with discrete wavelet transform results in a faster and simpler algorithm than the empirical mode decomposition.

The Markov chain is used to model random discrete events that are not represented in the primary sequences. One novel feature is that in lieu of the usual scaling in empirical measure sequences, the authors consider scaling in both space and time, which leads to new limit results. Under broad conditions, it is shown that a scaled sequence of the empirical measure converges weakly to a number of Brownian bridges modulated by a continuous-time Markov chain.
