The invention discloses a method and a
system for positioning blockage of a
detector in a pipeline based on array
sound wave layered inversion, and belongs to the technical field of buried pipeline detection. The method comprises the following steps: performing high-precision global synchronization on an internal
detector clock; the blocking state is intelligently judged, and
sound wave emission is triggered; the comprehensive sound velocity of an axial
pipe soil medium is inversed by using a ground axial double-point receiving
signal, and coarse positioning of a blocking axial interval is realized; searching and determining a ground projection center through an energy
peak value of a mobile probe; a linear receiving array perpendicular to the pipeline is arranged, and
sound wave travel time data propagating in the radial direction is collected; and finally, through a linearized hyperbolic
travel time equation and by utilizing least square parameter
estimation, the local soil sound velocity above the blockage point and the buried depth of the inner
detector are subjected to combined inversion, so that accurate three-dimensional space coordinates are obtained. According to the method, through physical layering and parameter joint inversion, the influence of nonuniform soil sound velocity uncertainty is eliminated, and sub-meter-level precision blocking positioning of the detector in the pipeline is achieved in a complex geological environment.
