Rapid and accurate identification of various faults occurring in transmission lines is essential for restoring normal line operation. However, existing transmission line fault diagnosis methods still face challenges in terms of noise immunity and diagnostic accuracy. To address these issues, this paper proposes a deep learning method based on recurrence plots and a convolutional neural network–bidirectional gated recurrent unit–attention mechanism model. The voltage and current signals of transmission lines are transformed into recurrence plots in both the time and frequency domains. Parallel convolutional neural networks are then employed to extract local features from the two domains, while bidirectional gated recurrent units are used to capture temporal dependencies. Furthermore, multi-head self-attention and cross-attention mechanisms are introduced to enhance key features within each domain and achieve adaptive fusion of inter-domain feature information. A transmission line model is established in Simulink to collect data under various fault conditions and influencing factors, thereby verifying the effectiveness and adaptability of the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves fault recognition accuracies of 99.63%, 96.68%, and 75.38% under NL1, NL2, and NL3 Gaussian-noise conditions, respectively, and maintains accuracies of 99.02%, 95.93%, and 72.43% under mixed-noise conditions. Compared with other deep learning models, the proposed method demonstrates higher diagnostic accuracy and stronger robustness.

To address the high dependence on diesel generation, renewable energy variability, and limited demand-side flexibility of remote islanded microgrids, this study develops a low-carbon economic dispatch framework for an islanded photovoltaic–wind–diesel–battery energy storage system with coordinated demand response. The proposed model minimizes the operating cost, pollutant treatment cost, and load-loss penalty cost while satisfying generation-output, battery state-of-charge, charging and discharging, demand-response, and islanded power-balance constraints. To solve the resulting high-dimensional, nonlinear, and strongly constrained optimization problem, a rotation quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm (RQPSO) is proposed. In contrast to the conventional velocity–position update, RQPSO independently encodes each decision variable using a full-dimensional quantum phase representation and performs the search through a shortest-path rotation-guided phase-updating mechanism. Adaptive angular mutation, elite local refinement, and stagnation-aware restart are further incorporated to balance global exploration, local exploitation, and convergence stability. The algorithm is evaluated using nine 30-dimensional benchmark functions and representative 24 h forecasted load and renewable-generation profiles for Island data. Under the reliability-priority scheduling scheme, RQPSO achieves a total scheduling cost of 69,017.69 CNY, diesel fuel consumption of 6636.20 kg, and estimated CO2 emissions of 18,332.49 kg. Compared with conventional PSO, these three indicators are reduced by 9.34%, 12.25%, and 12.25%, respectively. RQPSO also reduces the total cost by 6.16–27.36% relative to six comparison algorithms. The results demonstrate that the coordination of demand response and battery storage can improve peak–valley regulation, reduce diesel dependence and emissions, and maintain feasible and economical operation under different renewable-generation conditions.
