Abstract :
The traditional Nonintrusive Load Monitoring Systems (NILMs) often employ average power consumption ex. real power and reactive power to recognize electric loads ON/OFF status. However, aiming at variable loads owning variable property in their power, voltage, and frequency, the unsteady power signatures will increase the difficulty degree of load identification. A new extraction method of power signatures is proposed in this paper, convolution and wavelet multi-resolution analysis (WMRA) technique are employed to extract the new power signature from the raw instantaneous power waveforms. Parseval´s theorem is employed to obtain the power indices (PIs) from the new power signature. After inputting PIs of each electric load, inner product is used to identify the unknown loads.
