The invention relates to the technical field of flow detection, and discloses a gas ultrasonic flowmeter
signal processing method based on
echo signal envelope fitting. According to the method, the parameterized
mathematical model is adopted to carry out self-adaptive overall fitting on the envelope sequence of the ultrasonic
echo signal,
noise interference can be effectively suppressed, and the influence of
waveform distortion on measurement can be overcome. According to the method, the propagation rule of the
sound wave energy is restored from the noisy
signal through the optimal fitting process, and the accuracy and
repeatability of
flight time extraction are improved. Due to the adoption of a nonlinear optimization
algorithm with relatively high calculation efficiency, the real-time requirement of the
system is considered while the
measurement precision is ensured. According to the
processing mode, the
adaptive capacity of the gas ultrasonic flowmeter under the low
signal-to-
noise ratio working condition is enhanced, the long-term stability of metering is improved, a reliable flow measurement solution is provided for an
industrial site, and the application potential of an instrument under the complex working condition is expanded.
