Abstract: This paper proposes an improved positioning algorithm of electrical partial discharge applied for substations. The algorithm is based on the received signal strength of indication(RSSI) and replenishes beacon nodes by considering practical condition of the sensors. Compared with traditional trilateral weighting positioning algorithm, the proposed algorithm can improve the positioning accuracy by calculating the weighting results of the indefinite quantitative positioning perpendicular bisector and trilateral districts. This model considers the reality that the height of electrical discharge spots differentiates from the height of the plane formed by beacon nodes (signal sensors). The experimental result indicates that the revised positioning model proposed in this paper can effectively fit the condition of monitoring hardware and has higher positioning accuracy than the traditional trilateral positioning.
