Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of levee engineering safety monitoring, and particularly to a variable array type piping detection radar device, a piping monitoring device and an identification method. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, extreme weather has occurred frequently globally. As a typical form of levee seepage damage, piping has become the primary hidden danger threatening flood control safety due to its strong suddenness, high concealment, and fast breach speed. Traditional monitoring methods have significant defects: manual inspections rely on a large amount of manpower, facing problems such as lagging response, low positioning accuracy, and insufficient continuous monitoring ability. Moreover, affected by the change of the labor force structure, the number of personnel with professional identification experience is becoming increasingly scarce; the existing single-point detection technologies such as piezometers have a false alarm rate as high as 35% under complex working conditions such as turbid water flow and vegetation coverage, and have insufficient ability to capture early abnormal signals such as micro-vibrations and low seepage flow rates, making it difficult to achieve full-domain real-time monitoring; while the early warning models based on static geological parameters do not effectively integrate real-time hydrological data and intelligent algorithms, and the prediction accuracy drops by more than 40% under extreme working conditions, unable to meet the needs of dynamic risk assessment.

[0003] The core bottlenecks of the existing technologies are concentrated in three aspects: First, the global perception ability is insufficient. Single-point monitoring devices can only obtain local seepage data and cannot construct a dynamic model of a complex seepage field, and the risk of missed detection increases significantly with the change of water conditions; second, the multi-source data fusion efficiency is low. Multi-dimensional data such as hydrology, geology, and environment have not formed effective associations, and the early warning model lacks the ability to perform non-linear analysis on the piping evolution process, making it difficult to predict the development path of the danger; third, the engineering adaptability is limited. Traditional monitoring devices are large in size, high in power consumption, and high in deployment cost, and lack modular design, making it difficult to be applied on a large scale in long-distance levees and remote areas, and also unable to adapt to mobile loading platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles and inspection vehicles.

[0004] In response to the above problems, the present invention relies on technological breakthroughs such as the Internet of Things, edge computing, and machine learning to develop an active variable array type detection radar device and an intelligent identification method. Through high-sensitivity array sensors, real-time monitoring of the seepage field with a decimeter-level spatial resolution is achieved. By integrating the Beidou high-precision positioning technology and the deep neural network algorithm, a full-chain technology system for data acquisition, intelligent analysis, precise positioning, and dynamic early warning is constructed, reducing the early warning response time from the hour level to the minute level, and improving the prediction reliability to more than 95%. The device adopts a miniaturized and modular design, supports flexible deployment in various levee scenarios, effectively fills the technical gap of all-weather intelligent monitoring, and provides an innovative solution for flood control safety under extreme climates. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a variable array type piping detection radar device, a piping monitoring device and an identification method, which combines variable array radar structure design, multi-modal sensor fusion and dynamic weight deep learning to construct a closed-loop monitoring system with environment adaptability, multi-source signal perception and intelligent decision-making, realizing efficient and high-precision monitoring and early warning of piping; comprehensive breakthroughs are achieved in core indicators such as positioning accuracy, identification accuracy rate, and environmental adaptability.

The 16 units are connected by a signal transmission optical cable 115; the radar units 11 are adapted to different soil types and heights and other complex dam detection environments by setting longitudinal and transverse transmitting and receiving arrays; they are expanded in multiple stages longitudinally and transversely to adapt to different dam widths and improve the monitoring range and monitoring accuracy. The 16 radar units 11 are divided into four groups, A1, A2, A3, and A4, longitudinally.

The piping detection radar device 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the self-propelled platform 1 through a flange connector 102. In order to avoid damage caused by the contact between the piping detection radar device 10 and the ground due to uneven road surfaces during the movement of the self-propelled platform 1, a roller 103 is installed at the bottom of the piping detection radar device 10. This roller 103 is a silent roller 103 with an adjustable ground clearance to adapt to different road surface conditions.

The voiceprint recognition probe can identify the specific fluctuating audio frequency information of micro-pipe surges with high resolution. After training, the module is sensitive to the sound wave signals in the relevant bands of pipe surges, and after denoising, it can identify the soundprint characteristics of pipe surges with high definition.

[0076] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 The Beidou satellite guidance device 8 is installed on the top of the front outer wall of the three-proof cover 3. Through the whip antenna, it can perform high-precision real-time positioning in the field with satellite signals, providing a reference for the positioning of pipe bursts. In areas with weak or no satellite signals, the system automatically determines the position based on its own offline map and travel speed and performs interpolation evaluation based on the signal segment.

[0077] After the signals detected by the above-mentioned probes are preprocessed by the acoustic-optic-electric signal front-end processing module, they are transmitted to the data storage module 12 through the shielded cable II 43, and further transmitted to the integrated computing power integrated cabinet 13 for algorithm prediction. A 5G transmitting antenna 9 is provided at the rear end of the top wall of the three-proof cover 3 for sending real-time warning signals to the flood control headquarters or the command center; the monitoring warning signals and pre-judgment results generated by the intelligent pipe burst identification can be intuitively displayed in the vehicle-mounted integrated display system and can be quickly transmitted to the regional warning center through the 5G transmitting antenna 9.

[0078] The present invention also discloses a method for intelligent pipe burst identification.

[0079] Referring to Figures 7 to 10 , a method for intelligent pipe burst identification uses the above-mentioned pipe burst real-time monitoring device, including the following steps:

[0080] S1: According to the height of the dike to be detected and the detection depth, adjust the longitudinal extension width of the variable array type pipe burst detection radar device 10;

[0081] S2: Based on the top width of the dike to be detected, adjust the lateral extension width of the variable array type pipe burst detection radar device;

[0082] S3: According to the surface flatness of the detection target dike, adjust the ground clearance of the variable array type pipe burst detection radar device 10;

[0083] S4: According to the depth and accuracy of pipe burst detection and the requirements of the inspection speed, set the number of groups of the radar units 11 to be turned on, and determine the spatial layout of the front-end radar units 11;

[0084] S5: Set the high-frequency electromagnetic signal transmitting and receiving formation of the variable array type pipe burst detection radar device 10 to adapt to complex monitoring environments such as different soil qualities and heights. The pipe burst detection radar device 10 can match and set the shock wave frequency according to the above formation, and the variable frequency range is 20KHz to 600MHz. The monitoring depth is inversely proportional to the frequency selection. The deeper the depth to be monitored, the lower frequency range is selected for detection;

[0085] S6: According to the bottom width and detection range of the detection target dike, adjust the up and down height and angle of the acoustic-optic-electric integrated mast 4 to cover the specific monitored surface range required, so that the monitoring range of the visible infrared dual-spectrum probe 51 covers the potential pipe burst outcrop area to obtain visible and infrared image data of the backwater slope and a certain range of extension, and enable the audio probe of the voiceprint recognition module 6 to effectively receive audio signals;

[0086] S7: The data information collected by the variable array type piping detection radar device 10 forms a clear corrugation data graph after preprocessing. The frame processing of the signal preprocessing is set to a frame length of 20 - 40 ms, and the time-frequency analysis can generate a Mel spectrogram, followed by Z-score normalization processing;

[0087] S8: As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 9 , perform bidirectional LSTM deep model analysis A on the data obtained by the variable array type piping detection radar device 10 and preprocessed to capture the front and back correlation features; to improve the analysis efficiency, introduce an attention mechanism to focus on key frequency bands, use depthwise separable convolution to assist feature extraction, and use an improved Sigmoid classification at the output layer;

[0088] S9: After the corrugation data graph is identified by the deep learning algorithm, the piping identification data in the dike body is generated in real time. The model quickly judges the piping category and penetration degree according to the piping characteristics, and preliminarily judges the current state and potential risks of the piping, and gives the piping risk factor A1;

[0089] S10: As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 9 , the visible infrared dual-spectrum probe 51 collects the visible light image information of the backwater surface in real time, introduces an environment adaptive module, dynamically adjusts the suppression parameters, and performs the identification of the piping outlet morphology based on the pre-trained deep learning model B, and removes the influence of environmental interference through the denoising algorithm, and gives the piping risk factor A2;

[0090] S11: As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 9 , based on the difference between the piping water temperature and the backwater side environmental temperature, the visible infrared dual-spectrum probe 51 perceives the infrared image within the set range of the backwater surface in real time, and at the same time performs the identification of the piping infrared morphology through the pre-trained deep learning model C, judges the possibility of the piping, and gives the piping risk factor A3;

[0091] S12: As shown in Figure 8 , the acoustic wave probe of the voiceprint recognition module 6 captures the audio signal in real time. The noise suppression uses the deep learning method for noise reduction and performs adversarial training in combination with the noise sample library; in the construction of the feature engineering, the feature sequence selects a 50 - 100 frame sliding window, and performs data enhancement by adding random background noise, time shift / speed change processing and dynamically mixing piping features; add noise perturbation through adversarial training, and optimize the noise robustness of the analysis method through multi-task learning and time-domain - frequency-domain double verification mechanism; perform identification and judgment through the noise removal algorithm in combination with the pre-trained deep learning voiceprint recognition model D, and give the piping risk factor A4;

[0092] S13: According to the pre-trained model, combined with the hydrological and geomorphic features around the dam (the probability of piping increases significantly for specific geomorphic features), further give the environmental risk factor A5. The environmental risk factor levels and values at the current stage of the present invention are as follows in the table:

[0093]

[0094] S14: As Figure 7 , based on the set fusion algorithm, perform weighted calculation and analysis on the above five risk factors to obtain the risk value k of piping occurrence. The weighted calculation formula is:

[0095] A i is the risk factor, and ω i is the weight coefficient corresponding to the risk factor.

[0096] In the above analysis, when in the daytime with good visibility conditions:

[0097] The weight coefficients corresponding to each risk factor are respectively: weight A1(ω1) = 0.253, weight A2(ω2) = 0.382, weight A3(ω3) = 0.185, weight A4(ω4) = 0.136, weight A5(ω5) = 0.044;

[0098] When in the night time:

[0099] The weight coefficients corresponding to each risk factor are respectively: weight A1(ω1) = 0.286, weight A2(ω2) = 0.019, weight A3(ω3) = 0.425, weight A4(ω4) = 169, weight A5(ω5) = 0.101.

[0100] Combined with spatial positioning and correction technology, obtain the piping risk probability P of the dam spatial positioning point, and automatically broadcast warning information for the points with a probability greater than 75% (adjustable).

[0101] Through the above steps, the spatial and temporal positions of piping can be self-detected, real-time, and efficiently, and early warnings can be given. Through the automatic parallel comparison of multiple monitoring data, the accuracy of the monitoring effect can be further improved, the efficiency can be significantly improved, and the original work intensity can be reduced.

[0102] The present invention can autonomously patrol and locate the spatial position of piping and further give early warnings. The accuracy and timeliness are qualitatively improved compared with the previous manual inspections, and it can greatly save the funds and personnel input for dike inspections, and significantly reduce the difficult workload of dike inspections with a large area and a large quantity;

[0103] Through modular design and architecture, the front-end radar unit 11 of the piping detection radar device 10 is miniaturized and arranged in an array, and the piping audio detector is placed on the top of the self-propelled platform. An omnidirectional video probe is set up to be able to collect the panoramic information of sound, light, and electricity monitoring at the complex field site in real time, and can monitor the most multi-physical intuitive data related to piping to the greatest extent. Based on the data fusion algorithm, the identification and comparison of piping are completed, significantly improving the identification speed and accuracy of piping under complex working conditions;

[0104] Based on the detected piping field data, based on the deep learning algorithm, signal preprocessing is carried out, and adversarial training is combined with the noise sample library to identify and suppress noise. Based on feature engineering, a time series feature sequence is constructed. Through the data enhancement strategy and LSTM model design, combined with noise robustness optimization, high-quality single-signal discrimination results can be obtained;

[0105] Through the fusion analysis of multiple signals, the evaluation of the spatial occurrence state and connectivity of piping is significantly improved, and the positioning error is less than 5 cm. Through active confrontation between deep feature learning and environmental noise, high-precision piping identification under complex working conditions can be achieved. Experiments show that the accuracy rate can reach more than 90% when the signal-to-noise ratio ≥ 5 dB.
