A vector analysis calculation-based arc crosstalk signal identification method. A new sampling circuit manner is proposed in the method, wherein a current signal is sampled on zero and live lines, and the signal is converted into two digital signals with a sampling rate of 200 MHz by means of a dual-channel ADC, and the digital signals are sent to a hardware digital signal processing unit. Five pass bands are selected to perform band-pass filtering on the two signals separately. Time-sharing processing and vector analysis are performed on the filtered signals, and the amplitude ratio and fluctuation characteristics of two resistor terminal voltages, as well as the phase difference between shunt resistor and inductor terminal voltage signals are extracted as crosstalk feature quantities. According to a zero-crossing signal, a system segments the feature quantities extracted by a hardware processing module and sends same to a neural network for classification and determination.
