Partial discharge (PD) localization is important for monitoring and maintaining high-voltage equipment, which can help to prevent accidents. In this work, an acoustic localization sensor based on microelectromechanical system (MEMS) microphone array is proposed, which can detect and locate the partial discharge through a beam-forming algorithm. The MEMS microphone array consists of eight commercial MEMS microphones (SPV08A0LR5H-1, Knowles Electronics, IL, USA) with an aperture size of about 0.1 m × 0.1 m, allowing for a small hardware size and low cost. In order to optimize the acoustic performance of the array, a random array topology is designed. The simulation analysis indicates that the designed random topology is superior to several commonly used topologies. In terms of the localization algorithm, a deconvolution method called Fourier-based fast iterative shrinkage thresholding algorithm (FFT-FISTA) is applied. Simulation and experiment results demonstrate that FFT-FISTA used in the proposed acoustic localization sensor has significant advantages over the conventional beam-forming algorithm on spatial resolution and sidelobe suppression. Experimental results also show that the average localization error of the proposed scheme is about 0.04 m, which can meet the demands of practical application.
