Abstract:
The primary source of the various power-quality-disruption (PQD) concerns in smart grids is the large number of sensors, intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), remote terminal units, smart meters, measurement units, and computers that are linked by a large network. Because real-time data exchange via a network of various sensors demands a small file size without an adverse effect on the information quality, one measure of the power-quality monitoring in a smart grid is restricted by the vast volume of the data collection. In order to provide dependable and bandwidth-friendly data transfer, the data-processing techniques’ effectiveness was evaluated for precise power-quality monitoring in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) using grayscale PQD image data and employing pretrained PQD data with deep-learning techniques, such as ResNet50, MobileNet, and EfficientNetB0. The suggested layers, added between the pretrained base model and the classifier, modify the
pretrained approaches. The result shows that advanced MobileNet is a fairly good-fitting model. This model outperforms the other pretraining methods, with 99.32% accuracy, the smallest file size, and the fastest computation time. The preprocessed data’s output is anticipated to allow for reliable and bandwidth-friendly data-packet transmission in WSNs.
