摘要:In order to achieve more efficient energy consumption, it is crucial that accurate detailed information is given on how power is consumed. Electricity details benefit both market utilities and also power consumers. Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM), a novel and economic technology, obtains single-appliance power consumption through a single total power meter. This paper, focusing on load disaggregation with low hardware costs, proposed a load disaggregation method for low sampling data from smart meters based on a clustering algorithm and support vector regression optimization. This approach combines the k-median algorithm and dynamic time warping to identify the operating appliance and retrieves single energy consumption from an aggregate smart meter signal via optimized support vector regression (OSVR). Experiments showed that the technique can recognize multiple devices switching on at the same time using low-frequency data and achieve a high load disaggregation performance. The proposed method employs low sampling data acquired by smart meters without installing extra measurement equipment, which lowers hardware cost and is suitable for applications in smart grid environments.
