Abstract

This study proposes an ultrasonic guided wave-based method for internal defect detection of post insulators. Signal quality is enhanced using Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and wavelet denoising, while defect classification is achieved through a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Experiments confirm accurate recognition of cracks, porosity, delamination, and debonding, with strong robustness under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions. The method provides a reliable foundation for developing intelligent monitoring systems for power equipment.
