【 摘 要 】

The automatic identification of the topology of power networks is important for the data-driven and situation-aware operation of power grids. Traditional methods of topology identification lack a data-tolerant mechanism, and the accuracy of their performance in terms of identification is thus affected by the quality of data. Topology identification is related to the link prediction problem. The graph neural network can be used to predict the state of unlabeled nodes (lines) through training on features of labeled nodes (lines) with fault tolerance. Inspired by the characteristics of the graph neural network, we applied it to topology identification in this study. We propose a method to identify the topology of a power network based on a knowledge graph and the graph neural network. Traditional knowledge graphs can quickly mine possible connections between entities and generate graph structure data, but in the case of errors or informational conflicts in the data, they cannot accurately determine whether the relationships between the entities really exist. The graph neural network can use data mining to determine whether a connection obtained between entities is based on their eigenvalues, and has a fault tolerance mechanism to adapt to errors and informational conflicts in the graph data, but needs the graph data as database. The combination of the knowledge graph and the graph neural network can compensate for the deficiency of the single knowledge graph method. We tested the proposed method by using the IEEE 118-bus system and a provincial network system. The results showed that our approach is feasible and highly fault tolerant. It can accurately identify network topology even in the presence of conflicting and missing measurement-related information.
