Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of earthquake monitoring, and in particular to an earthquake monitoring device and a monitoring method. Background Art

[0002] Earthquakes, also known as ground motions or seismic tremors, are natural phenomena caused by the rapid release of energy in the Earth's crust, generating seismic waves. The most basic phenomenon during an earthquake is the continuous vibration of the ground, characterized by noticeable shaking. There are three major seismic belts worldwide: the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Eurasian Seismic Belt, and the Mid-Ocean Ridge Seismic Belt. Earthquakes are extremely dangerous, necessitating the use of seismic monitoring equipment for prevention.

[0003] For example, a multifunctional earthquake monitoring device and monitoring method with publication number CN202411715389.8 includes an earthquake monitoring device, through which earthquake data can be recorded and transmitted to maintain preventive effects;

[0004] This multifunctional earthquake monitoring device and monitoring method mainly uses electronic feedback technology to record electromagnetic parameters such as the geomagnetic field, georesistivity, and natural potential difference below the ground. When encountering abnormal changes in parameters, the data is annotated and transmitted to provide early warning to personnel.

[0005] However, this type of monitoring only monitors the ground, with limited coverage, and cannot fully cover all potential earthquake activity areas, resulting in the integrity and continuity of the monitoring data being affected. In addition, the changes in the geomagnetic field caused by earthquakes due to crustal movement have a short propagation time, making it impossible to issue early warning information in a timely manner.

[0006] For example, an earthquake monitoring device with publication number CN201920200565.2 includes a protective plate, the top of which is fixedly connected to the device housing. The device is horizontally compensated by the provided clamping rod, sub-block, main block and lever, ensuring the stability of the device during use and facilitating outdoor installation and use. The device is simple to operate and has a scientific design, avoiding the impact of the outdoor environment on the installation of the device, ensuring the approximate level of the device, and improving the monitoring effect of the device.

[0007] This earthquake monitoring equipment is installed and used outdoors. However, the monitoring equipment has poor adaptability in complex environments. For example, in extreme environments such as high humidity, high salt fog, and low temperature, the performance and stability of the equipment may be affected. If it is installed in a remote mountainous area, the subsequent maintenance cost will also be high, and untimely maintenance may lead to the inability to monitor earthquakes. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides an earthquake monitoring device and a monitoring method, which solves the problem that the earthquake monitoring equipment in the existing technology only monitors the ground, has a limited coverage range, and cannot fully cover all potential earthquake activity areas, resulting in the integrity and continuity of the monitoring data being affected. In addition, the propagation time of the geomagnetic field changes caused by earthquakes due to crustal movement is short, and early warning information cannot be issued in time. The adaptability in complex environments is poor, such as in extreme environments such as high humidity, high salt fog, and low temperature, and the performance and stability of the equipment may be affected.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: an earthquake monitoring device, comprising a processor, the processor being connected to a network connection device and a computer respectively, the processor comprising a monitoring unit, an access unit and a collaboration unit;

[0010] The monitoring unit consists of an ionospheric altimeter, a space ultraviolet telescope, an optical telescope, a low-frequency radio telescope and a distributed receiving network device;

[0011] The access unit includes a public data platform;

[0012] The cooperation unit is composed of electromagnetic sensors.

[0013] Preferably, the public data platform consists of China's "Zhang Heng-1" official website, international scientific databases and space weather monitoring websites.

[0014] Preferably, the official website of China's "Zhang Heng No. 1" includes an ionospheric electron density distribution layer database and a geomagnetic field anomaly monitoring report database.

[0015] Preferably, the international scientific database includes NASA's CEDR database and ES's Swaem satellite data platform.

[0016] Preferably, the space weather monitoring website includes the NOAA Space Weather Forecast Center platform and the SpaceWeather Live platform.

[0017] An earthquake monitoring method includes the following monitoring steps:

[0018] S1. Connect the processor to a network connection device and a computer respectively. The network connection device is an industrial router to achieve Internet intercommunication.

[0019] S2. Setting the processor to three units, namely, a monitoring unit, an access unit, and a collaboration unit, wherein the monitoring unit is composed of an ionospheric altimeter, a space ultraviolet telescope, an optical telescope, a low-frequency radio telescope, and a distributed receiving network device;

[0020] S3. Recording ionospheric altimeter data: By transmitting radio waves and receiving reflected signals, the ionospheric height and electron concentration changes are analyzed. Because crustal stress accumulation before an earthquake may cause the surface to release charged gases such as radon, affecting the electron density of the ionosphere, satellites can detect local abnormal increases or decreases in the ionospheric electron concentration (TEC). At the same time, the range of ionospheric disturbances that may be related to the earthquake can be locked to determine the earthquake area.

[0021] S4. Recording space ultraviolet telescope monitoring information: Space ultraviolet telescopes are ultraviolet imagers carried by satellites, such as NASA's IMAGE satellite, which can detect the radiation of charged particles such as oxygen ions and protons in the ionosphere and generate charge layer images. Through the charge layer images, data information can be obtained more intuitively;

[0022] S5. Recording auroral patterns through optical telescopes can indirectly reflect the activity of the charge layer. Auroras are a visible phenomenon caused by the interaction between solar wind and charged particles in the Earth's magnetosphere.

[0023] S6. Receive cosmic radio signals such as pulsars and solar radio bursts reflected or transmitted by the ionosphere through low-frequency radio telescopes, and invert the electron density structure of the ionosphere;

[0024] S7. Set up distributed receiving network equipment, such as the LOFAR radio array, which uses signal differences from multiple locations to analyze ionospheric disturbances;

[0025] S8. Access earthquake information on the public data platform through the access unit, where the public data platform consists of the official website of China's "Zhang Heng-1", international scientific databases, and space weather monitoring websites. Through the official website of China's "Zhang Heng-1", the ionospheric electron density distribution layer database and the geomagnetic field anomaly monitoring report database can be retrieved and accessed. By accessing international scientific databases such as NASA's CEDR database and ES's Swaem satellite data platform, satellite-processed charge layer visualization data can be obtained. Then, through space weather monitoring websites such as the NOAA Space Weather Forecast Center platform and the Space Weather Live platform, electromagnetic data from multiple satellites are integrated to provide real-time ionospheric status, geomagnetic storm warnings, and other information;

[0026] S9. Use electromagnetic sensors to record local electromagnetic anomalies and study their relevance to earthquake precursors in conjunction with satellite data.

[0027] S10. Comprehensively organize and summarize all measured and accessed data through computer programming technology to complete earthquake monitoring.

[0028] Beneficial effects

[0029] The present invention provides an earthquake monitoring device and a monitoring method, which have the following beneficial effects:

[0030] Through the joint cooperation of monitoring units, access units and collaborative units, the changes in ionospheric height and electron concentration can be analyzed, and local abnormal increases or decreases in ionospheric electron concentration (TEC) can be detected. At the same time, the range of ionospheric disturbances that may be related to earthquakes can be locked to determine the earthquake area and generate a charge layer image. The charge layer image can be used to obtain data information more intuitively, record the auroral morphology to indirectly reflect the charge layer activity, invert the ionospheric electron density structure, analyze the ionospheric disturbance, and combine the access information to more accurately determine the ionospheric state, geomagnetic storm warning and other information, so as to complete earthquake monitoring. At the same time, a set of equipment can realize global monitoring, with a wider coverage and higher monitoring efficiency, and can issue warning information in time. It does not need to be installed outdoors, without interference from the external environment, and can be repaired in time if problems occur, thereby ensuring the monitoring effect.
