Unmanned aerial vehicle icing detection system based on image processing technology, and working method of system

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle icing detection system based on an image processing technology. The system comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle, an unmanned aerial vehicle control system, a high-definition camera, an image sensor, an image processing system, a wireless transmission system and a ground base station, wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle control system operates theflight of the unmanned aerial vehicle; the high-definition camera is adjusted in direction through the unmanned aerial vehicle control system; the output end of the high-definition camera is connectedwith the input end of the image sensor; the output end of the image sensor is connected with the input end of the image processing system; and the output end of the image processing system is connected with the ground base station through the wireless transmission system. The system is high in operability and is convenient for practical application; the process of detecting the icing by adoptingthe unmanned aerial vehicle system based on the image processing technology is not influenced by terrains, weather and the like, so that the application range is relatively wide; the ground base station can help a ground worker to quickly know the icing thickness of a power transmission line, so that a line defect can be treated in time; and therefore, the system has a wide market application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle icing detection, in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle icing detection system based on image processing technology and a working method thereof. Background technique [0002] The use of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage overhead power lines is the main way of long-distance power transmission and distribution. Power lines and tower accessories have been exposed to the wild for a long time, and due to the impact of continuous mechanical tension, electrical flashover, and material aging, damage such as broken strands, wear, and corrosion will occur. Among them, the icing of transmission lines is a common line defect. Icing on transmission lines may lead to overloading of transmission lines, flashing of insulator strings, conductor galloping, and accidents of uneven icing or non-scheduled deicing, which will cause huge economic losses and serious social impacts on the country ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the way of manual line inspection is mainly affected by factors such as terrain environment, personnel quality, and weather conditions, which leads to low efficiency of transmission line icing control and long re-inspection cycle
