[0052] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will describe the specific embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification.
[0053] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0054] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0055] Embodiment 1, referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 , is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a method for detecting the health state of an aircraft hydraulic system, including the following steps:
[0056] S1. Deploy a multi-modal sensor array to collect real-time data of the aircraft hydraulic system and form a structured multi-modal data stream.
[0057] Specifically, it includes the following steps.
[0058] Deploy a four-dimensional heterogeneous sensing matrix at key parts of the aircraft hydraulic system (such as pumps, valves, pipeline joints, actuators, etc.), including pressure sensors, flow sensors, temperature sensors, and acoustic emission sensors. The sensors are firmly installed on the surface of the components through aviation-grade fixed fixtures or high-temperature adhesives to ensure anti-vibration (acceleration < 20g) and high-temperature resistance (< 150°C) performance. It is used to collect pressure data, flow data, temperature data, and broadband acoustic emission signal data of the aircraft hydraulic system.
[0059] Preferably, compared with the traditional detection method that uses a single type of sensor (such as pressure / temperature), this solution integrates a four-dimensional sensing matrix (pressure / flow / temperature / acoustic emission) to achieve complementary detection of physical quantities. The acoustic emission sensor fills the detection blind spot of traditional vibration sensors for early faults such as microcracks / cavitation.
[0060] Unify the numbering and timestamp marking of the real-time data of the aircraft hydraulic system collected in time series. The data of each sensor is marked with an accurate timestamp for subsequent data synchronization and analysis. For example, pressure data, flow data, temperature data, and acoustic emission signal data are all marked at the same time point to ensure data consistency and traceability.
[0061] In order to improve data transmission efficiency and reduce bandwidth occupancy, the collected raw data is compressed. An efficient compression algorithm (such as LZ77) is used to significantly reduce the data volume on the premise of ensuring data integrity. The compressed data is transmitted to the on-board processing unit through wired or wireless communication methods. In the on-board processing unit, the compressed data is decompressed and further processed to form a structured multi-modal data stream.
[0062] Preferably, through unified numbering in time series, timestamp marking, and decompression and recombination by the on-board processing unit, a multi-modal data stream is formed, which can well support subsequent deep learning analysis. The traditional processing method is to use discrete storage, and the data correlation is poor, making it difficult to support subsequent joint fault diagnosis.
[0063] S2. Divide the multi-modal data stream into two parts, the operating parameter subset and the acoustic emission subset, for preprocessing, extract features to generate feature vectors respectively, and at the same time concatenate the two feature vectors into a fusion feature vector.
[0064] Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0065] Based on predefined logical rules (judged by signal type), divide the multi-modal data stream into two types of subsets. The operating parameter subset contains three types of data: pressure, flow, and temperature, reflecting the working state trend of the hydraulic system; the acoustic emission subset independently processes high-frequency acoustic emission signals to capture the transient fault characteristics of the equipment.
[0066] S2.1. Perform compressive sensing analysis on the acoustic emission subset to reconstruct the acoustic wave signal. Compressive sensing technology can maintain the main information of the signal while reducing the sampling rate, which is particularly important for processing high-frequency acoustic emission signals. Through this technology, high-quality acoustic wave signals can be recovered from limited data, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent analysis.
[0067] Set a sliding window with a fixed width (e.g., 5 milliseconds) for segment-by-segment analysis of the acoustic wave signal;
[0068] Set the change rate threshold of the energy mutation rate and the peak frequency offset limit according to historical data (the values of the change rate threshold and the offset limit can be customized according to specific usage scenarios and actual situations).
[0069] Within each sliding window, calculate the energy mutation rate of the reconstructed acoustic wave signal. If the energy mutation rate exceeds the preset energy threshold, record the current time point as the first trigger time point. This step helps to identify significant fluctuations in the signal, which may indicate a potential fault.
[0070] For each trigger time point, use the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to transform the reconstructed acoustic wave signal into the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, detect the offset of the peak frequency. If the offset exceeds the preset offset limit, record this time point as the second trigger time point. This time-frequency combination method can more comprehensively capture the subtle changes in the acoustic emission signal.
[0071] When the two trigger time points coincide, extract the characteristics of the reconstructed acoustic wave signal centered on this time point, including peak frequency, energy amplitude, duration, and frequency band width, to form an acoustic emission feature vector. The characteristics of the reconstructed acoustic wave signal can effectively describe the abnormal patterns in the acoustic emission signal and provide a basis for subsequent fault diagnosis.
[0072] Perform statistical analysis on the operating parameter subset (pressure, flow rate, temperature data), calculate its mean and standard deviation, and obtain an operating parameter feature vector. Statistical features can reflect the overall operating condition of the hydraulic system and help identify potential abnormal trends.
[0073] Combine the acoustic emission feature vector and the operating parameter feature vector into a fusion feature vector by splicing. This fusion not only integrates different types of feature information but also enhances the integrity of the feature vector.
[0074] Furthermore, the traditional dual-modal trigger strategy has only a single energy threshold, and the trigger is vulnerable to environmental noise interference. Moreover, it is difficult to capture frequency domain anomalies only by relying on time domain features. However, the energy-frequency joint trigger mechanism of this scheme can simultaneously capture transient impact signals and identify harmonic offsets caused by component wear.
[0075] S3. Map the fused feature vector through encoding to an initial quantum state, establish a quantum annealing model, and obtain a state representation result.
[0076] Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0077] Normalize the fused feature vector extracted and concatenated from the multimodal data stream. Normalization is to ensure the consistency of scales among different features and avoid some features dominating the optimization process due to overly large numerical values. Subsequently, use a quantum state representation method (such as qubits or quantum registers) to map the normalized fused feature vector to an initial quantum state.
[0078] Furthermore, by mapping the fused feature vector to an initial quantum state, the limitations of traditional methods in high-dimensional spaces are overcome. The quantum state representation method can handle complex non-linear relationships in higher-dimensional spaces, thereby more accurately capturing minute changes in the aircraft hydraulic system.
[0079] S3.1. In the quantum annealing model, set an energy function as the core. The energy function consists of an initial energy term and a target problem term. The initial energy term is usually used to describe the ground state energy of the aircraft hydraulic system, while the target problem term reflects the objective function that the aircraft hydraulic system needs to optimize.
[0080] Complete the configuration of the quantum annealing model by selecting a linear scheduling method (i.e., the process of gradually adjusting parameters to guide the aircraft hydraulic system from the initial state to the target state). The linear scheduling method can effectively control the evolution path of the quantum state and ensure that the aircraft hydraulic system can smoothly reach the optimal solution.
[0081] Use the quantum annealing algorithm to minimize the target problem term through an iterative process and find the target state of the aircraft hydraulic system. During this process, dynamically adjust the initial quantum state according to the linear scheduling method to gradually transition it to the target state. Each iteration will generate a probability distribution of the aircraft hydraulic system state, including normal state, microscopic fault states (such as nanoscale wear of the sealing ring) and severe fault states (such as pipeline leakage). The probability distribution reflects the likelihood of the aircraft hydraulic system in different health states.
[0082] Preferably, classical sensor signal analysis (such as threshold alarm, spectrum analysis) has insufficient sensitivity to micron- and nanoscale early faults (such as nanoscale wear of the sealing ring, tiny oil bubbles) and a high false alarm rate. The present invention can detect microscopic energy changes that cannot be recognized by traditional methods through quantum annealing, directly output the probability of microscopic faults instead of binary judgment, and support preventive maintenance decisions.
[0083] To further refine the state representation results, a post-processing tool is used to analyze the evolution trajectory of the quantum state. Specifically, based on the energy function, the weight value of each feature in the fused feature vector is calculated through gradient calculation to form a weight vector. This process involves quantitative analysis of the contribution degree of each feature during the quantum state evolution process, which can help identify which features have a greater impact on the state change of the aircraft hydraulic system. The weight vector not only provides information on the importance of features but also provides a basis for subsequent state classification and fault diagnosis.
[0084] S4. Use a pre-trained deep neural network to process the state representation results and calculate the health index to obtain a structured diagnosis result of the aircraft hydraulic system.
[0085] Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0086] Based on the historical fault data of the hydraulic system, a historical frequency spectrum database is constructed. By analyzing past fault cases, the characteristic patterns of each component (such as hydraulic pumps, main control valves) during faults are extracted. For example, the corresponding relationship between the specific frequency peak of the acoustic emission signal and component damage. Then, according to the statistical analysis of the historical fault data, a fault threshold is set, which reflects the critical point where the sum of the probabilities of the microscopic fault state and the severe fault state is abnormal.
[0087] Furthermore, by establishing a historical frequency spectrum database and setting a fault threshold, the induction of fault characteristics and the quantification of the abnormal judgment standard are realized, providing a reliable basis for fault location and state classification.
[0088] S4.1. First, construct a deep neural network. The first layer is the input layer, the second and third layers are hidden layers, each layer contains a fixed number of neurons, and the fourth layer is the output layer, designed with three output nodes, corresponding to the three state categories of the hydraulic system: normal state, microscopic fault state, and severe fault state. The training process adopts the supervised learning method, and the goal is to make the output of the deep neural network match the labeled state categories (normal, microscopic fault, severe fault) as much as possible. The specific method uses the backpropagation algorithm, combined with the stochastic gradient descent optimizer, to adjust the weights and biases of the network through multiple rounds of iteration. The loss function selects the cross-entropy loss, which is used to measure the difference between the predicted probability and the true label, driving the model to converge.
[0089] S4.2. The deep neural network extracts the probability values in the state probability distribution, corresponding to the normal state, microscopic fault state, and severe fault state respectively. Through internal weights and activation functions, the confidence of each state is calculated to generate a preliminary state judgment of the aircraft hydraulic system. The calculation results are stored as a state vector, indicating the tendency of the current state.
[0090] Check the sum of the probability values of the micro fault state and the severe fault state, and determine whether it exceeds the fault threshold. If it exceeds the threshold, it is determined that there is an abnormality in the aircraft hydraulic system, and a trigger signal is generated to indicate whether to perform fault location. If it does not exceed the threshold, it is determined to be in a normal state, and the trigger signal value is no need to locate.
[0091] Preferably, the present invention utilizes the dynamic classification ability of the neural network, surpasses the singularity of the traditional threshold judgment, achieves the effect of improving the sensitivity and accuracy of state recognition, and provides more superior support for ultra-early fault detection.
[0092] S4.3. Check the trigger signal. If it indicates the need for location, extract the weight vector from the state characterization result, analyze the magnitude of each weight value, and determine which features contribute more to the abnormal state. For example, the weight of the acoustic emission peak frequency may be relatively high, indicating that it has a significant impact on the fault. Load the established historical spectrum database and call the feature pattern data therein, such as the correspondence between specific frequency peaks and component failures. Then, match the features with larger weight values with the patterns in the database, and compare the feature values with the fault patterns through the pattern recognition algorithm to identify the possible faulty components. For example, if the acoustic emission peak frequency matches the fault characteristics of the hydraulic pump, it is located as the hydraulic pump. The location result is stored as a component identifier, and the faulty component identifier is output.
[0093] Further explanation, compared with the prior art, combining the weight vector and the historical spectrum database surpasses the rough location relying on a single feature of the traditional method, and improves the accuracy of fault location and the depth of feature analysis.
[0094] S4.4. Extract the probability value of the normal state from the state probability distribution, multiply it by one hundred, convert it into a percentage value, and store it as the health index, which represents the health degree of the aircraft hydraulic system. Subsequently, compare the health index with a health threshold preset based on historical fault data analysis. If it is lower than the health threshold, it is determined to be an ultra-early fault; if it is higher than or equal to the threshold, confirm the state category according to the state label, such as normal or micro fault. Then, integrate the state label, the health index, and the faulty component identifier to form a structured diagnostic report, which contains three fields: the state category describes the current state, the health index quantifies the health degree, and the faulty component identifier indicates the abnormal location. If the location is not triggered, this field is empty.
[0095] Preferably, through the calculation of the health index and the generation of the structured diagnostic report, the quantitative evaluation and multi-dimensional integration of the state of the aircraft hydraulic system are combined, providing comprehensive health information. Compared with the prior art, this step surpasses the limitations of the traditional single index through neural network classification and health index quantification, and provides a reliable basis for real-time monitoring and fault warning.
[0096] S5. Present the diagnostic results in real time through the on-board display module and record them in the on-board black box and the ground maintenance server.
[0097] Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0098] Transmit the diagnostic report to the on-board display module. The on-board display module is a display device installed in the cockpit, such as a high-resolution liquid crystal screen. Load the diagnostic results onto the display interface. The status category is displayed in text form, such as micro-failure. The health index is presented as a percentage bar chart, and the faulty components are labeled with specific names, such as hydraulic pump. The on-board display module refreshes the data at a fixed frequency to ensure that the pilot can view the latest status of the aircraft hydraulic system in real time. Subsequently, send the same diagnostic report to the on-board black box, which is a storage device resistant to high temperatures and impacts. Write the data through the internal interface and record it as a timestamped log entry. At the same time, transmit the diagnostic report to the ground maintenance server through an aviation communication link, such as a satellite or 5G network. After the server receives the data, it stores it in the database for maintenance personnel to view. The transmission process ensures low latency, and the data is saved in encrypted form to prevent loss and tampering.
[0099] This embodiment also provides a health status detection method system for an aircraft hydraulic system, including:

[0104] A recording module that presents the diagnostic results in real time through the on-board display module and records them in the on-board black box and the ground maintenance server.
