Abstract

I n order to diagnose the PWM rectifier’s fault switch tube efficiently and accurately. The output voltage of the main circuit is analyzed by three-layer wavelet decomposition. When all the wavelet coefficients are obtained, the band’s wavelet energy spectrum is calculated. Then, the energy spectrum as a set of input variables is input into the improved BP neural network after normalization. The simulation results show that the method is accurate, efficient, and the learning convergence speed is better than the traditional wavelet analysis or neural network diagnosis method. The diagnosed accuracy rate is 86.7 %.
