Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of detection of foreign objects hanging on power transmission and distribution lines, and in particular to a method and system for detecting foreign objects hanging on power transmission and distribution lines based on image processing and deep learning. Background Art
[0002] In the complex fault scenario where the transmission tower suffers from abnormal structural stress due to hanging foreign objects, it is necessary to achieve: synchronous dynamic perception of the shape of foreign objects and structural deformation on the tower surface, eliminating the error in foreign object identification caused by local occlusion and light interference in the inspection image; establish a correlation model between the attachment position of foreign objects and the dynamic stress distribution of the tower body, and distinguish between short-term deformation caused by the deadweight of foreign objects and permanent deformation caused by structural damage; construct a cross-modal abnormal propagation path inference mechanism to predict the cascading impact of local deformation on the overall mechanical stability of the transmission tower, and provide a precise positioning basis for live fault elimination.
[0003] The mainstream solution adopts a multimodal temporal feature alignment detection framework: based on the improved Mask R-CNN, the drone inspection image is used to segment the contours of foreign objects, and a vibration sensor network is simultaneously deployed to collect the acceleration spectrum of key nodes of the tower body; the image segmentation results and the vibration frequency domain features are fused through the temporal cross-attention mechanism to construct a foreign object-deformation association map; the graph neural network (GNN) is used to model the abnormal mechanical transmission path, and the finite element simulation pre-training model is combined to output the structural risk heat map.
[0004] Image segmentation models have low accuracy in detecting the boundaries of translucent and reflective foreign objects (such as plastic bags and fiberglass kite strings), resulting in distorted contour parameter extraction. Modeling the correlation between vibration spectrum characteristics and actual structural deformation under strong wind interference is difficult, and environmental noise can be misinterpreted as stress anomalies. Graph neural networks rely on simulation pre-training data, making it difficult to generalize to unseen complex fault modes (such as localized arc deformation caused by foreign objects wrapped around insulators). This results in the prediction confidence of risk heat maps being lower than actual O&M requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0062] Researchers have found that existing abnormal warning methods for transmission towers rely on single deformation monitoring or static stress analysis, making it difficult to dynamically correlate the spatiotemporal evolution of surface deformation gradients and stress diffusion paths, resulting in large deviations in the positioning of foreign matter attachment, insufficient coordination between deformation propagation and load changes, and delayed risk warnings. Based on this, a dynamic warning method for abnormal transmission towers is provided. This method can achieve multi-dimensional and precise positioning of abnormal risks through the fusion of deformation-stress path networks and collaborative analysis of foreign matter geometric parameters. The technical solution of this application can be applied to transmission tower structural health monitoring, foreign matter attachment warning, and dynamic disaster risk assessment scenarios.
[0063] The entire R&D process embodies the collaborative mechanism of multi-source data dynamic registration and risk path network modeling, aiming to overcome the defects of existing solutions such as the separation of deformation and stress data, the disconnection between foreign body positioning and risk propagation, and the static nature of early warning indicators. Through the joint processing of point cloud dynamic registration and strain time-frequency domain decomposition, the traditional method's reliance on a single data source or static parameters is broken through; based on the superposition and fusion of deformation propagation paths and stress diffusion paths, the complexity of dynamic correlation modeling between deformation gradients and load changes is resolved; combined with the spatial collaborative analysis of foreign body geometric parameters and risk indicators, the adaptation deviation of foreign body positioning and risk warning is eliminated; finally, through the joint decision-making of dynamic path networks and foreign body position coordinates, the real-time, accuracy, and system robustness of abnormal warnings are achieved in multiple dimensions. This method forms a full-link closed-loop optimization from data registration to risk modeling, significantly enhancing the intelligent management capabilities of transmission tower structural anomalies in complex environments.
[0064] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0065] Figure 1 The present invention provides a flowchart of a method for detecting foreign objects hanging on a power transmission and distribution line based on image processing and deep learning, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0066] 101. Obtain a surface point cloud set and a historical point cloud set of the transmission tower, and dynamically register the surface point cloud set and the historical point cloud set based on the curvature difference between adjacent point clouds to generate a deformation gradient map. During the dynamic registration process, point cloud regions where the curvature difference exceeds a set range are marked as deformation-related regions of the deformation gradient map. Simultaneously, the contour of a surface foreign body is identified based on the curvature difference to obtain geometric parameters of the contour of the surface foreign body.
[0067] In this step, the surface point cloud set refers to the data set of surface points on the transmission tower acquired through 3D scanning. The historical point cloud set refers to the comparative point cloud data collected from the transmission tower at historical time points. Curvature difference refers to the change in the degree of surface curvature between adjacent point cloud areas. Dynamic registration refers to the process of spatially aligning point cloud data at different time points. The deformation gradient map refers to a visualization model that reflects the degree and distribution of surface deformation on the transmission tower. The deformation association area refers to the key focus area where the deformation exceeds the set threshold. The surface foreign body contour refers to the external features of foreign objects attached to the surface of the transmission tower. Geometric parameters refer to quantitative indicators that describe the shape, size, and other characteristics of foreign objects.
[0068] In an embodiment of the present application, first, a surface point cloud set of the current state of the transmission tower is obtained by a three-dimensional laser scanner, and at the same time, a historical point cloud set recorded during historical detection is retrieved from the database. Secondly, an improved ICP (iterative closest point) registration algorithm is used to perform preliminary alignment on the two sets of point clouds, and the curvature difference of adjacent point cloud areas is calculated in real time during the registration process. Next, a reasonable threshold range for the curvature difference is set. When it is detected that the curvature difference of a certain area exceeds the set range, the area is marked as a potential deformation area and highlighted as a deformation-related area in the three-dimensional model. Then, a cluster analysis is performed on the abnormal point cloud clusters that have not been successfully matched, and the contour features of these point cloud clusters are identified by an edge detection algorithm, and the geometric shape parameters of the surface foreign body contour (such as area, perimeter, convex hull, etc.) are extracted. Finally, the spatial position information of all deformation-related areas and the geometric parameters of foreign bodies are integrated to generate a visual deformation gradient map containing deformation gradients and foreign body distribution, providing basic data for subsequent analysis.
[0069] For example, in a coastal 500kV high-voltage transmission corridor, the operations and maintenance team used a drone equipped with a lidar to scan transmission towers after a strong typhoon passed through. This scanned the current surface point cloud and dynamically aligned it with the historical point cloud set before the typhoon. Analysis revealed that the curvature difference in the crossarm area in the middle section of the tower exceeded a set threshold. The dynamic alignment algorithm marked this area as a deformation-related region in the deformation gradient map, with the direction of the sudden change in curvature consistent with the dominant wind direction of the typhoon. Simultaneously, a band of abnormal curvature fluctuations was detected near the insulator string at the top of the tower. Three-dimensional contour reconstruction identified the surface contours of foreign objects—areas entangled with the debris of multiple fishing nets swept up by the typhoon. Geometric parameters indicated that the maximum entanglement depth of the foreign objects reached 15 centimeters, and they exhibited a spiral wrapping characteristic from top to bottom. The system automatically associates and stores the coordinates of the deformation-related region with the foreign object contour parameters.
[0070] 102. Collect strain signals at the connection nodes of the transmission tower, perform time-frequency domain energy decomposition on the strain signals, retain steady-state components, and map the steady-state components to positions corresponding to deformation-related regions to generate a strain map;
[0071] In this step, connection nodes refer to key connection points in the transmission tower structure. Strain signals refer to the measured physical quantities that reflect the stress and deformation of the structure. Time-frequency energy decomposition refers to the method of analyzing the signal in the time and frequency dimensions. Steady-state components refer to the stable and continuous energy components in the signal. Strain maps refer to the visualization model that reflects the strain distribution characteristics of the structure. Mapping refers to the process of assigning data to spatial locations.
[0072] In the embodiments of the present application, first, high-precision strain sensors are deployed at the key connection nodes of the power transmission tower to collect real-time structural strain signals. Second, the original strain signals are processed by wavelet packet transformation to decompose the energy distribution of different frequency bands, and the threshold filtering is used to retain the steady-state components reflecting the long-term deformation of the structure. Then, the position coordinates of the deformation correlation area corresponding to each sensor are determined according to the three-dimensional model of the power transmission tower, and the processed steady-state component values are mapped to the corresponding area. Finally, the strain data of all deformation correlation areas are integrated to generate a visual strain map, which displays the strain distribution of each part of the power transmission tower in the form of a heat map.
[0073] In the above example, the pre-deployed fiber grating sensors continuously collect strain signals at the connection nodes of the power transmission tower corresponding to the marked deformation correlation area. For the continuous monitoring data of 72 hours after the typhoon, the transient components caused by wind speed fluctuations are filtered out through time-frequency energy decomposition, and the steady-state components reflecting the cumulative damage of the structure are retained. The steady-state components are mapped to the deformation correlation area of the deformation gradient map according to the spatial position, generating a strain map covering two-thirds of the height of the tower body. The map shows that the strain value at the connection between the cross arm and the main material increases by three times compared to the historical average, and completely coincides with the area with the largest curvature difference in the deformation gradient map. The strain map is transmitted to the cloud analysis platform in real time, triggering the subsequent deformation propagation path analysis task.
[0074] 103、According to the preset spatial coordinates in the deformation gradient map, the displacement offset between adjacent deformation correlation areas in the deformation gradient map is calculated, and the displacement offset is connected to form a deformation propagation path network;
[0075] In this step, the spatial coordinates refer to the position positioning data in the three-dimensional space. The displacement offset refers to the position change of the deformation correlation area. The deformation propagation path network refers to the path relationship model of the deformation transmission in the structure. The connection refers to the association relationship between different deformation areas. The calculation refers to the process of obtaining characteristic parameters through mathematical operation.
[0076] In the embodiments of the present application, first, based on the deformation gradient map generated in step 102, the center position of each deformation correlation area is located according to the preset spatial coordinate system. Second, the displacement offset between adjacent deformation correlation areas is calculated, including distance and direction information. Then, the topological connection relationship of the displacement offset is constructed by using the graph theory algorithm, and the offset with continuous change characteristics is connected to form a deformation propagation path network. Finally, the path optimization algorithm is used to eliminate abnormal connections and retain the main propagation path, forming a network model reflecting the deformation transmission law of the structure.
[0077] Continuing with the above example, based on the spatial coordinates of the deformation gradient map, the displacement offsets of the crossarm deformation-related areas and adjacent tower sections were calculated. Analysis revealed that the displacement offsets propagate downward along the main members, reaching a point of maximum displacement accumulation at the diagonal member connection node 20 meters above the ground. Using a graph theory algorithm, the displacement offset directions of each deformation-related area were vector-connected, constructing a deformation propagation path network extending from the foreign object entanglement area at the top of the tower to the tower base. This network reveals the conduction characteristics of deformation energy within the tower: the eccentric load caused by the entanglement of the fishing net is transmitted through the crossarm-main member node, resulting in multiple levels of displacement offsets in the middle and lower parts of the tower, forming a propagation path structure similar to a tree-like bifurcation.
[0078] 104. Obtain load change values of connected nodes in the strain map, and associate nodes whose load change amplitudes exceed a preset threshold to construct a stress diffusion path network;
[0079] In this step, the load change value refers to the change in the force applied to the connected nodes. The preset threshold refers to the pre-set abnormality judgment standard. The stress diffusion path network refers to the relationship model of the stress transmission paths in the structure. Construction refers to the process of establishing a network model through analysis. Correlation refers to the establishment of mechanical relationships between different nodes.
[0080] In this embodiment, first, time series data of load changes at each connected node is extracted from the strain map obtained in step 102. Next, a preset threshold based on material properties is set to identify abnormal nodes whose load changes exceed the threshold. Next, spatial correlation analysis is used to determine the degree of association between abnormal nodes, and pairs of nodes with strong correlations are connected. Finally, a stress diffusion path network is constructed that reflects the characteristics of abnormal load propagation. This network reveals potential stress concentration areas in the transmission tower structure.
[0081] Continuing with the above example, combined with strain map data, the load change values of the transmission tower connection nodes were extracted. The load change values of the two bolt connection nodes located on the west side of the crossarm increased sharply within twelve hours, exceeding the preset safety threshold by twice. Using a stress diffusion tracking algorithm, these two nodes were linked to the lower diagonal member nodes and the foundation flange nodes, constructing a stress diffusion path network running through the west column of the tower. Comparison with the deformation propagation path network revealed that the stress diffusion path spatially overlapped with the deformation propagation path in the middle of the tower. The corresponding displacement offset and load change values in this overlapping area increased simultaneously, indicating possible plastic deformation of the structure.
[0082] 105. Spatially superimpose the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network, and fuse the displacement offset and the load change value in the overlapping area of the spatial superposition to generate a risk indicator;
[0083] In this step, spatial superposition refers to the fusion analysis of different networks in the spatial dimension. Overlapping areas refer to the spatial overlap of different networks. Fusion refers to the process of integrating and calculating different parameters. Risk indicators refer to comprehensive parameters used to quantitatively assess the safety status of the structure. Generation refers to the process of obtaining the final result through calculation.
[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, first, the spatial coordinates of the deformation propagation path network of step 103 and the stress diffusion path network of step 104 are aligned to achieve accurate spatial superposition. Secondly, in the overlapping area, a weighted fusion algorithm is used to fuse the displacement offset and the load change value to calculate the comprehensive risk coefficient. Then, the risk level classification standard is set according to the mechanical parameters of the material, and the fused characteristic value is converted into a risk index. Finally, a three-dimensional risk distribution map containing the risk location and level is generated to provide a quantitative basis for subsequent warnings.
[0085] Continuing with the above example, the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network were spatially superimposed, revealing a three-meter-long overlapping region in the middle of the tower. Within this region, the displacement trend (average daily increase of one centimeter) and the load change (increase of ten kilonewtons per hour) were combined to generate a comprehensive risk index. The risk index model indicated that the probability of structural failure in this region had reached the warning threshold, and the risk propagation was pointing toward weak points in the tower foundation. The system automatically labeled this area a "high-risk transmission zone" and incorporated the geometric parameters of the fishing net entanglement zone (entanglement depth and wrapping angle) into the risk transmission coefficient calculation.
[0086] 106. Determine the coordinates of the foreign object attachment position based on the geometric parameters of the surface foreign object profile, and generate a transmission tower abnormality warning instruction including the coordinates of the foreign object attachment position in combination with the risk index.
[0087] In this step, the coordinates of the foreign object attachment location refer to the specific spatial location of the surface foreign object on the transmission tower. The abnormal warning instruction refers to the risk warning signal issued based on the analysis results. Combination refers to the analysis method that associates different parameters.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, first, a high-definition image of a foreign object on the surface of a transmission tower is acquired through drone aerial photography. An image segmentation algorithm is then used to extract the foreign object's outline and calculate its geometric parameters. Secondly, based on the principles of photogrammetry, the two-dimensional image coordinates are converted into the coordinates of the attachment location within the three-dimensional model of the transmission tower. Next, the foreign object's location is spatially matched with the risk indicator in step 105 to determine the risk level of the location where the foreign object is attached. Finally, the location coordinates, risk level, and timestamp information are integrated to generate a transmission tower abnormality warning instruction containing a specific location description and risk warning, which is then pushed to the operation and maintenance management system to trigger the disposal process.
[0089] Based on the geometric parameters of the surface foreign body's profile, the coordinates of the fishing net debris's attachment point were determined to be the second node east of the tower's top insulator string. Combined with the risk indicator for the high-risk conductive zone, the system generated a transmission tower abnormality warning instruction containing these coordinates, clearly indicating that the eccentric load caused by the foreign body's attachment had caused a coupled deformation-stress transmission mechanism to form within the tower. Following this instruction, operations and maintenance personnel prioritized removing the fishing net debris from the tower and reinforcing the high-risk conductive zone. Post-processing monitoring data showed a 70% decrease in the rate of displacement, and the loads at key nodes in the stress diffusion path network returned to safe thresholds, validating the effectiveness of the warning instruction in protecting the transmission tower structure.
[0090] In summary, steps 101 to 106 implement multimodal data fusion and intelligent early warning for detecting foreign objects hanging on transmission and distribution lines. By combining dynamic registration of the transmission tower surface point cloud with time-frequency analysis of strain signals, a dual detection mechanism of deformation gradient maps and strain spectra is constructed, effectively improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of foreign object detection. By calculating the spatial superposition of the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network, fusing displacement offsets and load change values to generate risk indicators, and combining the geometric parameters of the foreign object contour to determine the attachment location, a closed-loop early warning system from foreign object identification to risk assessment is implemented, providing intelligent decision-making support for the safe operation and maintenance of transmission towers.
[0091] In some embodiments, step 105 includes spatially superimposing the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network, and fusing the displacement offset and load change value in the overlapping region of the spatial superposition to generate a risk indicator, including:
[0092] 201. Determine an overlapping area of the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network on a preset spatial coordinate.

Secondly, the spatial grid division technology is used to discretize the transmission tower structure into a number of cubic units, and a spatial index is established for each unit. Then, the units with the same spatial index in the two networks are retrieved through the spatial query algorithm, and the areas where these units are located are determined to be superimposed areas. Then, the judgment conditions of these areas are verified: check whether the coordinate range corresponding to the displacement offset recorded in the deformation propagation path network has at least 30% overlap with the coordinate range of the load change value in the stress diffusion path network. Finally, the spatial boundary coordinate set of all superimposed areas that meet the conditions is output to provide a basis for regional delimitation for weight calculation.

[0096] In step 202, the degree of change refers to the amplitude of the displacement fluctuation. The increasing or decreasing trend refers to the direction of change in the load change value. The fusion weight factor refers to the adjustment coefficient that reflects the importance of different parameters. Calculation refers to the process of obtaining characteristic parameters through mathematical operations.
[0097] In an embodiment of the present application, first, in each determined superposition area, the time series data of the displacement offset recorded in step 103 is extracted, and its standard deviation is calculated as a quantitative indicator of the degree of change. Secondly, the time series data of the load change value in the same area is obtained from the data of step 104, and the trend analysis algorithm is used to determine its increase or decrease trend (such as linear rise, fluctuation, etc.). Then, a weight calculation model is established, the degree of change of the displacement offset is normalized to a numerical value in the range of 0-1, and the load change trend is converted into a trend coefficient (an upward trend is 1, a downward trend is 0.5, etc.). Then, the two coefficients are synthesized into a fusion weight factor through a weighted sum formula, and the contribution ratio of the two types of parameters is set according to engineering experience (such as displacement weight 0.6, load weight 0.4). Finally, a fusion weight factor value that comprehensively reflects the deformation and stress characteristics is output for each superposition area.
[0098] 203. The displacement offset and load change value of each coordinate point in the superposition area are superimposed and calculated according to the corresponding fusion weight factor to obtain the risk index of each coordinate point.

Risk indicators refer to comprehensive parameters used to quantitatively assess the safety status of a structure. Obtaining refers to the process of obtaining a result through calculation.
[0100] In an embodiment of the present application, first, a high-density three-dimensional coordinate point grid (spacing 5 cm) is established in each superposition area delineated in step 201. Secondly, the displacement offset and load change value corresponding to each coordinate point are calculated by a three-dimensional interpolation algorithm. Then, according to the superposition area to which the coordinate point belongs, the fusion weight factor calculated in step 202 is assigned. Then, a linear weighted method is used to superimpose the displacement offset and load change value of each point according to the weight factor to obtain the initial risk value of the point. Finally, abnormal fluctuations are eliminated through spatial smoothing, and the processed risk value is normalized to a risk index in the range of 0-100, and the risk distribution is intuitively displayed in a gradient color in the three-dimensional model, completing the complete transformation process from raw data to risk assessment.
[0101] Here's a specific example:
[0102] In the intelligent inspection system for power transmission and distribution lines, multi-source data fusion technology enables precise location and risk assessment of suspended foreign objects. For a plastic film hanging hazard discovered during a drone inspection of a mountainous line section, the system first determined the conductor deformation propagation path caused by the foreign object hanging point within a 3D point cloud model (step 201). It then identified the overlapping region where the conductor sag section overlapped with the stress diffusion path of the adjacent tower. This region was characterized by the spatial overlap between the most significant conductor deformation location and the tension monitoring anomaly section. Based on the displacement monitoring data of the conductor nodes within this overlapping region (step 202), the system calculated the synergy index between the deformation gradient and the tension change, generating a fusion weight factor reflecting the mechanical influence of the plastic film hanging point. Finally, the deformation offset and tension anomaly values for each conductor node were dynamically weighted (step 203), generating a heat map showing high-risk indicators 15 meters downstream of the hanging point. When new inspection data exhibited similar characteristics to the overlapping region, the system automatically triggered a red alert and generated a remediation plan, guiding operations and maintenance personnel to prioritize addressing the hazard in that section. This case optimized the deformation-stress coupling analysis algorithm, improved the early identification capability of thin film foreign matter, and formed an intelligent inspection closed loop from multi-source data analysis to risk disposal.
[0103] In summary, steps 201 to 203 achieve dynamic risk quantification and precise fusion of deformation and stress path networks. By spatially superimposing the deformation propagation path network and the stress diffusion path network, the displacement offset and load change values are fused in the overlapping area, and a risk indicator calculation model based on spatial correlation is constructed. This method innovatively introduces a fusion weight factor to dynamically adjust the contribution of different areas according to the degree of displacement change and the load increase and decrease trend, solving the limitations of independent analysis of deformation and stress data in traditional detection. By fusion of coordinate point-level data within the superposition area, a refined quantitative expression of risk indicators is achieved, providing multi-dimensional, high-precision data support for the safety assessment of transmission tower structures, and significantly improving the spatial resolution and dynamic response capabilities of risk prediction.

Secondly, a non-rigid ICP registration algorithm is used, with the minimization of curvature difference as the objective function, to dynamically align the correspondence between the current surface point cloud set and the historical point cloud set. Then, the spatial correspondence of the point clouds is continuously adjusted through iterative optimization, so that the curvature difference in the initial deformation zone gradually converges to the dynamically adjusted threshold. Finally, the displacement vector field of the point cloud during the registration process is recorded to provide basic data for subsequent deformation gradient calculations.

Secondly, the space is divided into a regular voxel grid, and the change in curvature difference is accumulated in each voxel along the three preset three-dimensional spatial directions of X, Y, and Z. Then, the discrete accumulation results are smoothed by the cubic spline interpolation algorithm to generate a continuous gradient distribution field. Finally, the gradient components in the three directions are synthesized into a deformation gradient map in vector form, and the size and direction of the deformation are intuitively displayed using color and arrows.
[0117] 305. Perform spatial continuity verification on regions in the deformation gradient map where the gradient value distribution continuously exceeds the dynamic adjustment threshold, and mark regions that meet the spatial continuity distribution condition as deformation-related regions.

Finally, these areas are marked as deformation-related areas in the three-dimensional model, and their characteristic parameters such as spatial range, gradient size and direction are recorded to provide a basis for subsequent risk assessment.
[0120] Here's a specific example:
[0121] In the intelligent deformation monitoring system for power transmission and distribution lines, three-dimensional point cloud dynamic analysis technology enables accurate identification of abnormal deformation of conductors. For drone inspection data of a certain cross-river line section, the system first extracts the three-dimensional geometric features of the current surface point cloud set and the historical benchmark point cloud (step 301). By calculating the curvature difference of adjacent point clouds in the area where the conductor sag is lowest, it is found that this area has a characteristic bimodal distribution pattern. Based on the distribution characteristics of the curvature difference (step 302), the system sets a dynamic adjustment threshold and marks the middle section of the conductor where the curvature difference exceeds the threshold as the initial deformation zone. By analyzing the curvature change trend of adjacent point clouds in the initial deformation zone (step 303), the system dynamically aligns the correspondence between the current and historical point clouds, so that the curvature difference in the middle section gradually converges to a reasonable range. Based on the aligned correspondence (step 304), the system calculates the cumulative change of the curvature difference of each point cloud area along the conductor axis, generating a deformation gradient map showing that there is a significant gradient mutation in the middle section. The gradient map's persistently exceeded areas are spatially verified (step 305), ultimately marking the 15-meter section of the conductor's middle section, which meets the continuity criteria, as a deformation-related zone. When new inspection data exhibits similar gradient mutation characteristics, the system automatically triggers an abnormal conductor deformation warning, directing operations and maintenance personnel to focus on investigating potential external force damage hazards in this section. This case optimizes the dynamic threshold adjustment algorithm, increasing the sensitivity of detecting early conductor deformation characteristics and forming an intelligent monitoring closed loop from point cloud difference analysis to hazard warning.
[0122] In summary, steps 301 to 305 realize dynamic point cloud registration and intelligent identification of deformation areas based on curvature differences. By calculating the curvature difference between the surface point cloud and the historical point cloud, dynamically adjusting the registration threshold and marking the initial deformation area, adaptive registration of point cloud data is achieved.

The deformation gradient map is generated by accumulating the curvature difference changes in the three-dimensional space direction, and the deformation association area is determined in combination with spatial continuity verification, which significantly improves the robustness of foreign body contour detection. This technical solution breaks through the limitations of traditional static registration methods, provides high-precision deformation benchmark data for subsequent strain signal mapping and risk analysis, and enhances the adaptability of foreign body detection in complex environments.
[0123] In some embodiments, as described in step 304, calculating the change in curvature difference of each point cloud region based on the correspondence after dynamic registration, and accumulating the change along a preset three-dimensional spatial direction to generate a deformation gradient map includes:
[0124] 401.

Secondly, the three-dimensional geometric features (including curvature, normal vector, etc.) of each point in the two sets of point clouds are accurately aligned through a feature matching algorithm. Then, a differential calculation method is used to compare the curvature values of the corresponding point clouds before and after registration point by point to identify point cloud areas with obvious curvature differences. Finally, a spatial clustering algorithm is used to cluster these abnormally changing point clouds into continuous areas, and the spatial boundaries and change intensity are marked for each area.
[0127] 402. Calculate the change in curvature difference of each point cloud region before and after dynamic registration, and accumulate the change in curvature difference of each point cloud region along a preset three-dimensional spatial direction, where the three-dimensional spatial direction is determined by the geometric feature distribution of the surface point cloud set.

Then, the curvature difference change of each point is vector-decomposed along the determined three-dimensional spatial direction, and the component values in the three directions are calculated respectively. Finally, a spatial grid accumulation algorithm is used to accumulate the component values in each direction within its corresponding spatial grid unit to obtain the total distribution of curvature difference changes in the three directions.

Then, the discrete grid data is converted into a continuous gradient field by a three-dimensional interpolation algorithm to generate a vector-type deformation gradient map containing size and direction information. Finally, the visualization rendering technology is used to superimpose the deformation gradient map on the three-dimensional model of the transmission tower, and the gradient intensity is represented by the color depth and the deformation trend is represented by the arrow direction, completing the visualization conversion from point cloud data to deformation features.
[0133] The following is a specific example:

By calculating the curvature difference change amount of each point cloud area before and after registration (step 402), the system performs three-dimensional space accumulation along the axial and radial directions of the conductor to find that the 15-meter area in the middle section has a characteristic gradient accumulation effect. The accumulated results are corresponded to the point cloud spatial coordinates (step 403) to generate a deformation gradient map showing that there is a significant gradient mutation in the middle section of the conductor. When the new inspection data presents similar gradient characteristics in the same section, the system automatically associates the strong wind record in the meteorological monitoring data to judge that it is a conductor deformation risk caused by wind deviation, guiding the operation and maintenance personnel to check the fittings in this section, and confirming that there is a bolt loosening hidden danger on site. This case optimizes the three-dimensional gradient accumulation algorithm and improves the early warning capability of the conductor mechanical deformation, forming an intelligent diagnosis closed loop from point cloud dynamic analysis to defect positioning.
[0135] In summary, steps 401 to 403 realize the gradient representation and stereoscopic analysis of the curvature difference in the three-dimensional space. Through the point cloud mapping relationship after dynamic registration, the curvature difference change amount is calculated and accumulated along the three-dimensional spatial direction to construct a spatial quantization model of the deformation gradient map. This method innovatively accumulates the curvature change amount along the three-dimensional direction determined by the geometric feature distribution, breaks through the limitations of traditional two-dimensional gradient calculation, and realizes the stereoscopic representation of the deformation features. Through the accurate correspondence of the three-dimensional spatial coordinates, the deformation gradient map can fully reflect the spatial deformation distribution characteristics of the surface structure of the transmission tower, providing a high-resolution gradient data basis for the generation of the deformation propagation path network, and significantly improving the dimension and accuracy of the deformation propagation path analysis.

Secondly, the sliding window technology is used to cut the continuous strain signal into multiple time segments according to a preset time length (such as 5 minutes), ensuring that each segment contains a complete load cycle. Then, the wavelet packet transform algorithm is applied to each time segment to decompose the time domain signal into multiple continuous frequency intervals (such as 0-10Hz, 10-20Hz, etc.). Finally, the energy value of each time segment and frequency interval combination is calculated to form a three-dimensional feature matrix of time-frequency-energy, which lays the data foundation for the extraction of steady-state components.

Then, the stability of these intervals is verified through time correlation analysis, and the accidental low fluctuation intervals are removed. Finally, the frequency intervals meeting the stability requirements are marked as steady-state components, and their energy values and time distribution characteristics are recorded to provide reliable data for subsequent spatial mapping.
[0143] 503. According to the range of spatial coordinates of the deformation associated area, the energy value of the steady-state component corresponding to each connection node is mapped to the spatial coordinates of the corresponding deformation associated area;

Secondly, the spatial coordinates of each connection node are determined according to the sensor installation position, and the spatial distance from each connection node to each deformation associated area is calculated. Then, the nearest neighbor matching algorithm is used to assign the energy value of the steady-state component of each connection node to the nearest deformation associated area. Finally, the energy value is accurately mapped to the spatial coordinate system of the deformation associated area through coordinate transformation to establish the energy-space correspondence table, ensuring accurate association between the mechanical response and the deformation area.
[0146] 504. The energy values of the steady-state components of multiple connection nodes mapped to the same deformation associated area are spatially weighted and fused to obtain an energy fusion value, and a strain map is generated according to the correspondence between the energy fusion value and the spatial coordinates.

Secondly, a weighted average algorithm is used to fuse the energy values of multiple nodes according to the spatial weight to obtain an energy fusion value that characterizes the overall strain characteristics of the deformation zone. Then, the discrete fusion value is expanded into a continuous spatial distribution field through the Kriging interpolation algorithm. Finally, the energy fusion value is associated with the spatial coordinates of the deformation association zone to generate a strain map that uses a color gradient to represent the strain intensity, where the red area represents the high strain area and the blue represents the low strain area, providing an intuitive basis for structural safety assessment.
[0149] Here's a specific example:
[0150] In the intelligent monitoring system for power transmission and distribution lines, multi-source data fusion technology enables accurate diagnosis of tower structural abnormalities. For the online monitoring data of a cross-regional transmission line, the system first collects strain signals from the key connection nodes of the tension tower (step 501), divides the 24-hour continuous signal into minute-level segments, and performs frequency domain energy analysis to identify the characteristic low-frequency energy accumulation at the connection between the crossarm and the main material. By screening the steady-state components with energy fluctuations below the safety threshold (step 502), the system locks on the abnormal energy distribution pattern of the connection node on the southwest side of the tower body. Based on the coordinate range of the deformation association area determined by the previous three-dimensional point cloud analysis (step 503), the system maps the steady-state energy value of each node to the tower body structure model and finds that there is an abnormal energy concentration phenomenon in the southwest diagonal material connection area. The energy values of multiple connection nodes mapped to this area are spatially weighted fused (step 504) to generate a strain map showing the presence of high energy values at the diagonal material connection. When new monitoring data shows similar energy distribution at the same location, the system automatically links it to high wind records from meteorological monitoring, identifies a risk of loose structural bolts, and directs maintenance personnel to conduct on-site inspections to confirm the presence of missing nuts. This case study optimizes the strain-energy spatial mapping algorithm, enhancing the ability to early-warn hidden tower defects and forming an intelligent diagnostic closed loop from multi-source signal analysis to structural hazard location.
[0151] In summary, steps 501 to 504 achieve the precise extraction and spatial energy mapping of the steady-state components of the strain signal. The steady-state components with fluctuation amplitudes below the threshold are screened by time-frequency domain energy decomposition technology, effectively filtering out the influence of environmental noise and transient interference. Based on the spatial coordinate range of the deformation association area, the energy values of the steady-state components are mapped to the corresponding areas and spatially weighted fusion is performed to construct a strain map generation mechanism. This method enhances the spatial continuity expression of strain data through the spatial fusion of multi-connected node data, providing highly reliable energy distribution data for the construction of stress diffusion path networks. This technical solution realizes the precise transformation of strain signals from temporal characteristics to spatial distribution, providing a high-fidelity energy distribution benchmark for structural stress analysis.

Then, based on the node importance assessment model (taking into account the position criticality and historical damage records), the screened nodes are secondary verified. Finally, the confirmed abnormal nodes are marked as key nodes in the three-dimensional model, and their spatial coordinates, amplitude of change, and specific values exceeding the threshold are recorded to form a list of key nodes.
[0162] 604. Analyze the spatial proximity relationship between the key nodes, and determine the association direction between the key nodes based on the increase and decrease trends of the coordinate distances and change amplitudes of the key nodes in the preset three-dimensional space;

Then, the stress transfer direction is determined by vector analysis, and the node pairs with the same trend and the closest spatial distance are marked as potential propagation paths. Finally, the two factors of spatial distance and trend similarity are combined to determine the association direction between each pair of key nodes (such as the positive association from node A to node B) to provide directional guidance for path construction.
[0165] 605.

Then, according to the increase and decrease trend of the change amplitude of the load change value of the adjacent key nodes, the stress propagation direction of the fracture area is determined, and the missing path segment is completed. Finally, redundant connections are eliminated through topology optimization, and a stress diffusion path network that reflects the actual diffusion law of stress is constructed. The network displays the transfer path and intensity change of stress from high-value areas to low-value areas in the form of a directed graph.
[0168] Here's a specific example:
[0169] In the structural health monitoring system for power transmission and distribution lines, stress propagation path analysis technology enables precise localization of mechanical anomalies in towers. Based on long-term monitoring data from a 500kV transmission line tension tower, the system first extracts the load change values for each connection node from the strain map (step 601). Significant energy concentration is detected at the diagonal connection on the southwest side of the tower. By analyzing the distribution characteristics of load changes at all nodes (step 602), the system calculates a dynamic fluctuation threshold and identifies five key nodes exceeding the threshold (step 603). These nodes exhibit a spatial distribution pattern extending from the tower base to the crossarm. Based on the spatial coordinate analysis of the key nodes (step 604), the system determines the associated direction of load changes propagating upward along the southwest diagonal. The key nodes are connected along this direction (step 605). After completing the path breakage caused by missing monitoring points, a complete path network is generated, showing the stress diffusion from the tower base through the diagonal to the crossarm. When new monitoring data reproduced similar stress diffusion patterns along the same path, the system automatically linked it to meteorological monitoring records of icing, identifying a risk of abnormal structural stress. Operations and maintenance personnel were instructed to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the southwest diagonal material, where microcracks were discovered. This case optimized the stress path completion algorithm, enhancing the ability to warn of hidden tower damage and forming an intelligent monitoring closed loop from mechanical feature analysis to structural defect diagnosis.
[0170] In summary, steps 601 to 605 achieve intelligent construction of stress diffusion paths and path continuity assurance based on dynamic thresholds. The dynamic fluctuation threshold is calculated based on the distribution characteristics of the load change value, key nodes are screened and their spatial proximity is analyzed, and an adaptive generation model of the stress diffusion path network is constructed. This method innovatively combines the coordinate distance of key nodes with the trend of change amplitude to determine the correlation direction, and uses the data of neighboring nodes to complete the path break area, solving the problem of broken links caused by missing data in traditional path construction. This technical solution realizes the integrity and continuity expression of the stress diffusion path, provides accurate stress propagation path data for the fusion calculation of risk indicators, and significantly improves the reliability and spatial coverage capability of stress diffusion path analysis.

These coordinates constitute a set of boundary coordinates that describe the shape of the foreign body. Secondly, the convex hull algorithm is used to calculate the minimum bounding box of the foreign body contour, and the coordinates of the four corner points of the bounding box are extracted as the initial position coordinates. Then, the initial position coordinates are unified into the overall coordinate system of the transmission tower through coordinate transformation to ensure that the same reference system is used for subsequent deformation analysis. Finally, the initial position coordinates are deduplicated and sorted to form standardized foreign body position description data in preparation for precise matching.
[0175] 702.

Secondly, the spatial relationship between the initial position coordinates obtained in step 701 and the deformation association area range is judged, and the ray method is used to determine whether each coordinate point falls within the polygon range. Then, all initial position coordinates that fail the inclusion test are eliminated, and the coordinate points that are completely within the deformation association area are retained. Finally, a spatial cluster analysis is performed on the filtered coordinate points, and adjacent coordinate points are merged to finally determine the precise set of foreign body attachment position coordinates.
[0178] 703. Determine the value of the risk index corresponding to each foreign object attachment location coordinate, and divide the dynamic safety threshold according to the distribution range of the value of the risk index of all foreign object attachment location coordinates;

Then, based on the engineering safety standards, key quantiles (such as the top 10% high-risk quantiles) are selected on the distribution curve as the benchmark value of the dynamic safety threshold. Finally, the threshold is dynamically adjusted considering seasonal factors and structural importance coefficients to generate dynamic safety threshold standards that adapt to different working conditions, providing a basis for risk classification.
[0181] 704. Mark the coordinates of the foreign matter attachment location where the value of the risk index exceeds the dynamic safety threshold as high-risk coordinates;
[0182] In step 704, labeling refers to the process of assigning a label to specific data. High-risk coordinates refer to spatial locations where risks exceed safety standards. Exceeding the threshold is the judgment condition. The safety threshold is the critical value for determining the risk level. Determination refers to the process of reaching a clear conclusion through analysis.
[0183] In the embodiment of the present application, first, the value of the risk index of each foreign body attachment location coordinate is compared with the dynamic safety threshold determined in step 703. Secondly, all coordinate points that exceed the safety threshold are identified through a threshold screening algorithm. These points represent locations with higher structural risks. Then, the exceeding coordinate points are sorted and graded based on the size of the risk value, and the coordinate points with a risk value exceeding 1.5 times the threshold are marked as particularly high-risk points. Finally, the risk level of high-risk coordinates is marked with different colors in the three-dimensional model to form an intuitive risk distribution heat map.
[0184] 705. Combining the location information of the high-risk coordinates with the corresponding risk index value, generate a transmission tower abnormality warning instruction including the coordinates of the foreign object attachment location and the risk index.

Then, a complete transmission tower abnormality warning instruction is automatically generated through the warning information template, including location description, risk level, recommended disposal measures and other content. Finally, the warning instruction is pushed to the operation and maintenance management system, and the positioning and navigation information is sent to the on-site inspection personnel through the mobile terminal, realizing closed-loop management from risk identification to disposal response.
[0187] Here's a specific example:
[0188] In the intelligent inspection system for power transmission and distribution lines, precise foreign object risk assessment technology enables graded early warnings for hanging foreign objects. For a plastic film hanging defect discovered during a drone inspection of a mountainous line, the system first extracted the boundary coordinates of the foreign object's outline (step 701) and determined its initial attachment position in the middle of the conductor. Combining the deformation association zone determined by previous deformation analysis (step 702), the system matched the initial coordinates with the 15-meter deformation zone in the middle of the conductor to accurately locate the actual attachment location of the foreign object. By calculating the wind-induced vibration response parameters of each attachment point (step 703), the system established a dynamic safety threshold and discovered a significant overshoot at 8 meters in the middle of the conductor. After marking this location as a high-risk coordinate (step 704), the system generated an early warning instruction containing the precise GPS coordinates and risk level (step 705). When a similar hanging object is discovered during a new inspection, the system automatically links it to meteorological warning information, identifying a risk of conductor dancing in windy weather and guiding operations and maintenance personnel to prioritize addressing potential hazards in this section. This case optimized the risk coordinate mapping algorithm, improved the assessment accuracy of the hazard level of suspended foreign objects, and formed an intelligent early warning closed loop from foreign object positioning to risk classification.
[0189] In summary, steps 701 to 705 realize the intelligent matching and early warning decision-making of the foreign body attachment position and risk indicators. The attachment position is determined by spatial matching of the foreign body contour boundary coordinates and the deformation association area, and combined with the dynamic safety threshold division of the risk indicator, the accurate marking of high-risk coordinates is achieved. This method innovatively introduces a dynamic safety threshold mechanism, adaptively adjusts the warning standard according to the distribution range of the risk indicator value, and solves the problem of insufficient adaptability of the traditional fixed threshold. By fusing position information and risk indicator values to generate abnormal warning instructions, a closed-loop response mechanism from detection to warning is constructed, which significantly improves the timeliness and accuracy of the safe operation and maintenance of transmission towers, provides intelligent protection for the stable operation of the power system, and realizes the leap of risk warning from single-location alarm to multi-dimensional data collaborative decision-making.
