Feng Hengfu, Bo Zhang, Xu Chongyou, Zhou Meng · 2023
Infrared imaging is the main method for detecting power equipment and a key means to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the power grid. Traditional infrared imaging devices are bulky, inconvenient to carry, and unfriendly to operate, which affects their practical application effectiveness. In recent years, infrared imaging online detection and portable infrared imaging technology have been continuously developed, and advanced technologies such as “big cloud moving intelligence” have been rapidly applied, providing new ideas for infrared imaging detection. This article proposes mobile phone infrared imaging detection and perforated infrared imaging online detection technology solutions based on the characteristics of overhead lines and distribution station buildings in the distribution network, and designs an infrared imaging detection architecture based on cloud edge collaborative distribution equipment. Based on the cloud/edge collaboration mechanism, the inference calculation is moved forward to edge devices such as edge gateways or mobile phones. The model is trained in the cloud, and the model algorithm is updated before being distributed and deployed to the edge, reducing network transmission and cloud computing pressure. The cloud/edge updates independently. Finally, experiments have shown that the infrared imaging detection architecture for power distribution equipment based on cloud/edge collaboration effectively reduces network transmission load and cloud computing pressure, is easy to operate, and has good implementation effects. It provides a new solution to solve the series of problems existing in existing infrared imaging detection.
