Extraction and analysis of tree canopy height information in high-voltage transmission-line corridors by using integrated optical remote sensing and LiDAR

Traditional inspection methods cannot quickly and accurately monitor tree barriers and safeguard the transmission lines.To solve these problems,in this study,we proposed a rapid canopy height information extraction method using optical remote sensing and LiDAR,and used UAV optical imagery with LiDAR to monitor the height of trees in a university and a high-voltage transmission line corridor in the Ningxia region.The results showed that the relative error of tree height extraction using UAV optical images was less than 5%,and the lowest relative error was 0.11%.The determination coefficient R^(2) between the optical image tree height extraction results and the measured tree height was 0.97,thus indicating a high correlation for both.In the field of tree barrier monitoring,the determination coefficient R^(2) of tree height extracted using airborne LiDAR point cloud,and canopy height model(CHM)and of the measured tree height were 0.947 and 0.931,respectively.The maximum and minimum relative error in tree height extraction performed using point cloud was 2.91%and 0.2%,respectively,with an extraction accuracy of over 95%.The experimental results demonstrated that it is feasible to use UAV optical remote sensing and LiDAR in monitoring tree barriers and tree height information extraction quickly and accurately,which is of great significance for the risk assessment and early warning of tree barriers in transmission-line corridors.

Load-forecasting method for IES based on LSTM and dynamic similar days with multi-features

To fully exploit the rich characteristic variation laws of an integrated energy system(IES)and further improve the short-term load-forecasting accuracy,a load-forecasting method is proposed for an IES based on LSTM and dynamic similar days with multi-features.Feature expansion was performed to construct a comprehensive load day covering the load and meteorological information with coarse and fine time granularity,far and near time periods.The Gaussian mixture model(GMM)was used to divide the scene of the comprehensive load day,and gray correlation analysis was used to match the scene with the coarse time granularity characteristics of the day to be forecasted.Five typical days with the highest correlation with the day to be predicted in the scene were selected to construct a“dynamic similar day”by weighting.The key features of adjacent days and dynamic similar days were used to forecast multi-loads with fine time granularity using LSTM.Comparing the static features as input and the selection method of similar days based on non-extended single features,the effectiveness of the proposed prediction method was verified.

A Scenario-classification Hybrid-based Banding Method for Power Transfer Limits of Critical Inter-corridors

To secure power system operations,practical dispatches in industries place a steady power transfer limit on critical inter-corridors,rather than high-dimensional and strong nonlinear stability constraints.However,computational complexities lead to over-conservative pre-settings of transfer limit,which further induce undesirable and non-technical congestion of power transfer.To conquer this barrier,a scenario-classification hybrid-based banding method is proposed.A cluster technique is adopted to separate similarities from historical and generated operating condition dataset.With a practical rule,transfer limits are approximated for each operating cluster.Then,toward an interpretable online transfer limit decision,costsensitive learning is applied to identify cluster affiliation to assign a transfer limit for a given operation.In this stage,critical variables that affect the transfer limit are also picked out via mean impact value.This enables us to construct low-complexity and dispatcher-friendly rules for fast determination of transfer limit.The numerical case studies on the IEEE 39-bus system and a real-world regional power system in China illustrate the effectiveness and conservativeness of the proposed method.
