The partial discharge (PD) detection systems are often vulnerable to strong external interferences, and sometimes the PD signals are submerged in noises (white noise for example) completely. So the signals acquired must be preprocessed to obtain the reliable PD information. While there are many methods for white noise denoising, mostly are not very suitable for partial discharge. The wavelet transform (WT) coefficient of PD and white noises have different spread characteristics in different WT scales. Based on the Information Theory, The Minimum Information Description Length (MDL) criterion is a optimization strategy, a small amount of signal parameter is requried to the PD signals representation, the paper proposes a wavelet spatial correlation algorithm to partial discharge denoising based on MDL criterion: optimal wavelet function is selected based on MDL, then have the white noise reduced in WT, the algorithm has wonderful virtues such as free from any parameters estimation about noise, free from presetting threshhold and threshold chooseing behavior, so the algorithm is highly adaptive. Large amount of experimental results illustrate that the method presented in this paper are efficient and feasible and outperforms other general method of PD noise reduction.
