The invention discloses a device and a method for online detection of
water content of
plant leaves. The device comprises a detection box, a first
electrode piece, a second
electrode piece, a frequency measuring device and a computer, an SAM
resonance detector and a stabilized-
voltage power source are arranged in the detection box, the stabilized-
voltage power source is electrically connected with a power source end of the SAM
resonance detector, two detection ends of the SAM
resonance detector are electrically connected with the first
electrode piece and the second electrode piece respectively, an output end of the SAM resonance detector is electrically connected with an input end of the frequency measuring device, and an output end of the frequency measuring device is electrically connected with the computer. The method includes detecting a
plant leaf to be detected by the SAM resonance detector, subjecting frequency of signals output by the SAM resonance detector to nonlinear random resonance
processing to acquire a feature value M, and substituting the feature value into a
water content proportion precasting formula to calculate to acquire the
water content of the
plant leaf. By the device and the method, the water content of the plant leaves can be quickly and accurately detected in an online and lossless manner.
