1. Introduction
In recent years, with the rapid development of the global wind energy industry, wind power, as a crucial component of renewable energy, has presented broad prospects [
1]. Faced with the significant challenge posed to wind energy growth by icing incidents on wind turbine blades, the accurate identification of blade icing and wind power prediction are effective measures [
2,
3]. Therefore, precision in feature extraction and prediction model construction is of utmost importance and has garnered significant attention from researchers. Early and accurate prediction of icing conditions is vital for operators, facilitating the timely implementation of appropriate measures to mitigate the adverse impacts of icing, enhance power generation efficiency, and reduce maintenance costs, thereby ensuring the stable operation of wind turbines [
4,
5].
Regarding feature extraction, Xiao et al. employed the chi-square test to rank 26 features in SCADA data and recursively eliminated low-importance features to obtain an optimal feature set [
6]. Li, N et al. utilized the dynamic principal component analysis method for feature extraction and ultimately selected the yaw angle, nacelle temperature, and generator speed as relevant variables for blade icing detection [
7]. Jiang, G et al. analyzed statistical characteristics and trends in continuous period ice data to construct a severity index for blade icing while selecting wind direction, ambient temperature, pitch angle, power, and wind speed as relevant features [
8].
In terms of model construction, deep learning techniques have been widely applied in the field of wind turbine blade icing prediction [
9,
10,
11]. Tao et al. addressed the issue of class imbalance in icing data by utilizing random undersampling and developed a Stacked-XGBoost blade icing diagnostic model [
12]. Zhang Danfeng et al. constructed a normal behavior model based on output power and rotor speed using the XGBoost algorithm, achieving an error rate as low as 0.53% [
13]. Chen et al. proposed a transfer learning TrAdaBoost algorithm model that improves performance in handling imbalanced and dynamically changing distributions of wind turbine data [
14]. Tao et al., on the other hand, introduced a general model based on DNN (CNN-Attention-GRU) that combines bidirectional gated recurrent units to accurately predict wind turbine icing conditions [
15,
16]. The CM technique proposed by Zhang et al. employs KNN regression and a bagging ensemble strategy, resulting in approximately 30% improvement in both accuracy and operational efficiency when tested with SCADA data collected from the field [
17]. In 2023, M.K. et al. proposed the BIKICE model, which utilizes time-series data and employs 5-fold cross-validation methods to conduct ice detection on wind turbine rotor blades. This approach significantly improves accuracy [
18]. Xu et al. conducted an analysis of the environmental meteorological conditions, wind turbine operations, and power supply situations in a wind farm through field observations and numerical model predictions. Their findings indicate a 10.4% improvement in power forecasting compared to the original wind farm predictions [
19].
To address these aforementioned issues, this paper proposes a short-term power prediction method for wind turbine blade icing based on principal component analysis (PCA) feature extraction and fractional Lévy stable motion models to tackle long-range dependence problems during the icing process of wind turbines.
The main contributions of this paper are as follows: firstly, PCA is applied to handle high-dimensional data for dimensionality reduction and feature selection, effectively addressing the issue of imbalanced data in icing prediction tasks where research on long-range dependent (LRD) features for stochastic sequences remains relatively limited [
20]. Therefore, we introduce fractional Lévy stable motion models [
21], which consider the influence of past and current states on future states and can better predict a series of non-smooth random processes while extracting potential icing.
2. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Data Preprocessing
The PCA method integrates multiple health indicators to select the principal components of each feature sequence, taking into account various factors that influence the wind turbine icing process comprehensively [
22]. In this preprocessing step, it is crucial to ensure that the trends in each stage are accurately reflected in the feature sequences and eliminate any redundant features [
23,
24]. The specific calculation steps are as follows:
Step 1: Utilize multiple feature parameter sequences as input samples for the PCA method to construct a fusion matrix.
Among them,
introduces the variational mode decomposition (VMD) method, which is based on decomposed feature sequences of various health indicators [
25].
Step 2: Calculate the mean value of the input sequence samples.
Step 3: Compute the correlation coefficients of sample input sequences.
where
and
are the rank sequences of
and
, respectively. If
, there is a strong positive correlation between the icing feature sequence and the capacity; otherwise, there is a negative correlation.
Step 4: Calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the covariance matrix.
Step 5: Arrange the eigenvalues in descending order and select the top column eigenvectors as principal components according to the established rule, resulting in the final feature sequence [
26].
3. Model Principles
3.1. Characteristics and Parameter Meanings of Lévy Stable Motion
Due to the generalized central limit theorem, there is no closed-form expression for the probability density function (PDF) of the Lévy stable distribution. Therefore, the properties of the Lévy stable distribution are represented through its characteristic function, as defined by
[
27].
The random process
is utilized to represent a random variable that conforms to the Lévy stable distribution with the parameters
. The shape of the distribution is typically influenced by
and
while the linear transformation of the distribution is determined by
and
[
28].
As shown in
Figure 1a, the parameter
represents the stability index, also known as the characteristic index. Its range is
, where a larger value leads to a shorter tail and a faster decay in the distribution, while a smaller
results in a greater impulsiveness in the sequence, causing larger impacts from anomalies occurring further away from the central position [
29]. In (b), parameter
represents the skewness parameter, with a range of [−1, 1]. When
, the distribution is skewed to the left; conversely, when
, the distribution is skewed to the right. When
, the Lévy stable distribution is referred to as a symmetric Lévy stable distribution. In (c), the drift coefficient
primarily controls the distribution’s position, representing the mean or median of the sequence. In (d), the diffusion parameter
indicates the degree of deviation of the distribution from the mean. When
, it represents the extent of distribution deviation from the mean and is equivalent to the variance of a normal distribution in special cases [
30].
Therefore, if the stochastic process
exhibits power-law decay in its probability distribution, demonstrating heavy-tailed characteristics, it possesses long-range dependence (LRD) characteristics in the domain of autocorrelation functions [
31].
3.2. fLsm Model and LRD Related Characteristics
Expression (6) for the fLsm model is given as follows:
The equation
holds, where
and
are real constants satisfying
, and
represents a Lévy stable measure [
32] within the Lebesgue measure space.
The LRD characteristics of the fLsm model are determined by the interplay between the self-similarity parameters and . When , the integral kernel function exhibits a slow variation with respect to variable , resulting in its divergence at infinity. This persistent effect endows the fLsm model with its distinctive LRD characteristics. The magnitude of and product directly influences the strength of LRD features in the fLsm model, leading to a more intricate and diverse developmental pattern in random sequences.
Equation (7) provides the mathematical representation of the numerical simulation sequence for the generated fLsm model:
Among them,
represents Lévy stable white noise, exhibiting long-range dependence (LRD) characteristics.
Figure 2 illustrates the simulation of the fLsm model under various conditions.
When , as the value of increases in the fLsm model, the randomness of the sequence fluctuates more quickly or slowly, indicating a weakening of heavy-tailed peak impulses and a more prominent LRD characteristic.
4. Prediction Model Construction
4.1. Establishment of the Iterative Difference Prediction Model
The general form of the fLsm model driving the Itô process for a random sequence
is given as follows [
33] (Equation (8)):
In order to establish the iterative difference form of the predictive model and compute the estimated values of model parameters, we discretize the increment
of the fLsm model. The discretization process adheres to Maruyama’s formula [
34] and results in Equations (9) and (10):
Equation (11) is derived by substituting the fractional Lévy white noise
[
35] for
into the aforementioned equation, thereby obtaining the increment Itô integral form of the fLsm model.
Therefore, the incremental representation of the fLsm model is expressed in a differential discrete form as [
36] (Equation (12)).
The discrete form of the fractional-order Itô process is given by Equation (13).
By integrating the discrete form of a fractional-order Ito process with a distinction equation, we can derive an iterative difference prediction model based on the fLsm model (Equation (14)).
4.2. Establishment of the Iterative Difference Prediction Model
Combining the Lyapunov coefficient from chaos theory [
37], we determine the maximum prediction step length of the ice formation characteristic sequence to achieve accurate forecasting of ice trends. The Lyapunov coefficient reflects the sensitivity of the ice formation characteristic sequence to initial values, which gradually increases over time. Even slight disturbances in initial values will be exponentially amplified, significantly impacting future trend changes. By calculating the maximum Lyapunov coefficient
using a widely applied method for small data sets, we can determine the maximum predictable range of trends. The calculation process is as follows:
Step 1: Define the time series and determine the lag time using the autocorrelation function method.
Step 2: Employ Cao’s algorithm [
38] to ascertain the appropriate embedding dimension
.
Step 3: Reconstruct the phase space.
where
.
Step 3: Calculate the maximum Lyapunov coefficient utilizing small-scale data analysis techniques.
where
, and
is the distance between each reference point
and its adjacent point
after the
-th discrete time step:
The maximum prediction range
for the ice formation feature sequence is expressed as follows:
The maximum predictive range of ice formation feature sequences can be determined by following the aforementioned steps, thereby optimizing the prediction process for icing trends.
4.3. Parameter Estimation of New Feature Functions
The accurate estimation of the stability index
, skewness index
, drift coefficient
, and diffusion parameter
is crucial for modeling prediction models based on fLsm. The new feature function estimation method performs parameter estimation through the following steps, as illustrated in
Figure 3.
4.3.1. Estimation of Diffusion Parameter
First, estimate the diffusion parameter
for the sample sequence
. Since the characteristic function is a complex function related to
, the characteristic function is given by:
At the position where
, the estimated value of diffusion parameter
is:
4.3.2. Estimation of Stability Index
The stability index
determines the correlation of the fLsm model, and different values can be used to construct various prediction models. By employing the new feature function method and combining Cauchy feature function
corresponding to
and Gaussian feature function
corresponding to
, we calculate the auxiliary parameter
.
Therefore, the estimated value of the stability index α is expressed as:
4.3.3. Estimation of Skewness Index and Drift Coefficient
Equation (23) is primarily obtained by computing the logarithmic form of the feature function.
At
, the real and imaginary parts are, respectively, represented as follows:
By following the above steps, estimates for the stability index , skewness index , drift coefficient , and diffusion parameter can be obtained.
5. Experimental Cases and Analysis
5.1. Data Description
To validate the performance of the proposed short-term prediction model for wind turbine blade icing in this paper, we utilized SCADA data from a wind farm in a mountainous area in Yunnan province, China. The dataset includes monitoring data from five doubly fed asynchronous wind turbine generators, spanning from 24 January 2018 to 31 December 2018, with a time resolution of 4 min. The dataset consists of 19 original feature variables, and the parameters are explained in
Table 1.
Each sample is labeled with a status tag, where icing state data are labeled as ‘0’ and normal state data are labeled as ‘1’. Since the wind turbine icing events occurred only from 19:00 on 29 December 2018 to 24:00 on 31 December 2018, the data quantities and ratios for the five turbine units are presented in
Table 2.
5.2. Experimental Process
When wind turbine blades are encased in ice, it results in a reduction in power output. For the experiment, two specific time periods were selected as historical feature data: 26 December 2018 from 7:00 to 19:00 and 28 December 2018 from 7:00 to 19:00. The objective was to forecast the optimal wind energy generation and determine the icing trend. The overall experimental process is illustrated in
Figure 4.
Firstly, there is a coupling relationship among the features in the original dataset. Therefore, before performing feature extraction and reconstruction, we used the PCA method to process the wind speed, the active power of the grid-side, the wind direction, and the temperature of the components of the turbine as input sequences. This resulted in a set of feature sequences with a better ice trend performance, with a cumulative contribution rate reaching 99.3132%, as shown in
Figure 5. Secondly, we employed R/S and an improved maximum likelihood estimation method to estimate the model parameters for predicting 60 steps ahead for turbine A1. The specific parameter estimation results are shown in
Table 3. It is worth noting that the value of parameter H is 0.8403 > 0.5, satisfying the condition for long-range dependence (LRD), thereby demonstrating the rationality of using the fLsm prediction model for modeling.
Therefore, the Lyapunov exponent estimated based on the small data method was 0.0111, and the maximum prediction range for icing trend was obtained as 90. This result provides crucial parameter support for the icing trend prediction model.
5.3. Prediction Results
In this experiment, an iterative difference prediction model based on fLsm was employed to predict the power near icing conditions for the A1 wind turbine. Specifically, predictions were made for the A1 wind turbine for the next 20, 40, 60, and 80 steps, starting from the 60th step, regarding the trend of power changes. The predicted results are shown in
Figure 6.
From the graph, it can be clearly observed that the fLsm iterative difference prediction model accurately predicts the icing trend of the A1 wind turbine at different prediction time steps. Comparing the model’s predicted results with actual data reveals a higher level of prediction accuracy, offering a viable approach for the timely forecasting of icing events. Additionally, it is noticeable that the prediction accuracy of the icing trend for the same set of sample sequences decreases as the prediction length increases. To analyze this trend in more detail, the model parameters for samples of different lengths are provided in
Table 4.
5.4. Model Performance Analysis
In order to comprehensively evaluate the performance of the fLsm-based iterative difference prediction model, five evaluation metrics including maximum value, mean, standard deviation, SOA (accuracy score), and HD (Healthiness Index) were employed for performance analysis. The specific numerical results are presented in
Table 5.
Through the error analysis presented in
Table 5, the following conclusions can be drawn:
- (1)
Maximum Value and Mean: The maximum value and mean, respectively, gauge the peak and overall level of prediction errors. From the data in the table, it can be observed that with an increase in prediction length, the maximum value gradually increases, while the mean remains relatively small. This indicates that, in certain scenarios, prediction errors may exhibit significant fluctuations, but the overall level remains at a relatively low magnitude.
- (2)
Standard Deviation: The standard deviation reflects the dispersion of prediction errors. As the prediction length increases, the standard deviation gradually expands, indicating a broader range of prediction errors.
- (3)
SOA (Accuracy Score) and HD (Healthiness Index): SOA and HD are metrics evaluating the overall performance of the model, considering both the accuracy and stability of predictions. With an increase in prediction length, both SOA and HD gradually decrease, indicating a decline in the overall performance of the model with the extension of the prediction length.
Overall, the fLsm-based iterative difference model demonstrates a certain effectiveness in predicting icing trends. In practical applications, flexibility in selecting prediction length is essential to strike a balance according to specific requirements, achieving a well-rounded performance. This is crucial for the timely and accurate prediction of icing events.
5.5. Model Comparison
5.5.1. Comparative Analysis of Model Prediction Result
For the historical data encompassing the icing characteristics from 7:00 to 19:00 on 28 December 2018, various predictive models, including FBm, CNN-Attention-GRU, and XGBoost, were introduced for the prediction of 40 steps of feature power values. The results are depicted in
Figure 7, where
Figure 8a,b specifically illustrate the outcomes for 10 steps and 20 steps of prediction, respectively.
5.5.2. Performance Comparison of Different Models
The fLsm iterative difference prediction model was employed to forecast the power and icing state from 20:00 to 21:00 on 29 December 2018, utilizing the icing characteristics of five wind turbines during the period from 7:00 to 19:00 on the same day as historical data. The performance was compared with other models, such as FBm, CNN-Attention-GRU, and XGBoost. The results are presented in
Table 6, with bold font highlighting the highest prediction accuracy achieved by each model in the respective dataset.
Based on the analysis of experimental results,
Table 6 demonstrates that the fLsm iterative difference prediction model exhibits higher accuracy in both power and icing state predictions compared to other models. Considering a comprehensive evaluation that combines accuracy and F1 score assessment, the fLsm model consistently demonstrates outstanding performance in power and icing state predictions across different wind turbine units. The F1 score represents the comprehensive performance of icing prediction results, being the harmonic mean of precision and recall. Precision measures the proportion of actual icing among the data predicted as icing by the model, while recall measures the proportion of actual icing data correctly predicted as icing by the model. A higher F1 score indicates better icing prediction capability of the model.
