3.1. MEWT Decomposition Method
- (a)
- Extract the signal spectrum using the fast Fourier transform (FFT): The Fourier transform of the signal fff is given by
- (b)
- Segmenting the signal frequency bands: First, identify the number of local maxima marked as Num in the obtained spectrum and arrange them in descending order. Then, further arrange the local maxima in ascending order based on the corresponding frequencies . After this, the normalized frequency band is divided into sub-band , and the sub-band centered at for the AM–FM components is defined as , where , , .
- (c)
- Constructing a wavelet filter bank: For the sub-band , the scaling function and the wavelet function can be expressed as follows:
- (d)
- Signal reconstruction: The inverse Fourier transform is used to calculate and . This allows for obtaining the time–domain representation of each frequency band, known as the modal components .
- In the spectrum, record the local maxima of N frequency bands as .
- Use the midpoint between two adjacent local maxima as the boundary for the first frequency band segmentation and calculate the kurtosis for each frequency band.
- For the first and the N-th frequency bands, if the kurtosis Kn > 3, use the N-divided points (starting from N = 2) between the frequency band’s starting point and its midpoint as new frequency bands. If N ≤ 4, recalculate Kn until Kn ≤ 3 and N > 4, and redefine the frequency band boundaries.
- For intermediate frequency bands , if the kurtosis Kn > 3, use the N-divided points between the band’s starting point and midpoint, as well as between the midpoint and endpoint (starting from N = 2) as new frequency bands and recalculate the kurtosis. If the kurtosis K > 3, then set N = N + 1 and repeat the above process until K ≤ 3 or N > 4.

- (1)
- The optimized MEWT algorithm has a better noise reduction effect compared to the traditional EWT noise reduction algorithm, helping to minimize the interference of noise on the effective feature extraction of zero-sequence current signals.
- (2)
- The SDP transformation can integrate each IMF obtained from the MEWT of a one-dimensional time–domain signal into a two-dimensional spatial domain image. Compared to traditional signal-to-image conversion methods, the transformed images contain richer fault features, providing better visualization of fault signals.
- (3)
- Through Hybrid-CNN, the deep feature extraction of time–frequency and spatial domain images of zero-sequence current signals can improve HIF detection accuracy. The Grad-CAM visualization results further validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.
- (4)
- The HIF detection method in this paper accurately detects HIFs under various conditions, including different topologies, noise interferences, and fault scenarios. Compared to other methods, it achieves the best results, offering a new perspective for research on HIF detection in distribution networks.
