Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of marine environment monitoring, and particularly relates to a marine acoustic environment dynamic monitoring system fusing a noise map. BACKGROUND

[0002] Current marine acoustic environment monitoring mainly relies on fixed hydrophone arrays or single-point measurement devices, which have the following significant defects: first, the spatial coverage range is limited, and the spatial distribution characteristics of a large range of sound fields cannot be obtained; second, the measurement data and marine environment parameters are processed separately, resulting in a calculation error of sound propagation loss exceeding ±5dB; and third, the static deployment mode is difficult to adapt to dynamic changes in the marine environment.

[0003] Existing noise map technologies mainly rely on theoretical sound propagation models and lack dynamic calibration of measured data. The main problems are: 1) the map update cycle is long, and transient sound sources such as ship noise cannot be captured; 2) commercial software does not integrate intelligent separation modules for biological noise and artificial noise, resulting in distorted ecological assessment; and 3) the map generation process is not associated with AIS and other shipping data sources, which results in a high false alarm rate in existing systems in scenarios such as offshore wind farm supervision.

[0004] Although machine learning has been applied to marine acoustic signal processing, the existing technology has three major shortcomings: 1) the feature library sample is single, and the classification accuracy of overlapping noise is less than 50%; 2) the edge computing capability is weak, and the node end cannot realize real-time alarm of abnormal noise; and 3) no correlation model is established between acoustic fingerprints and environmental factors. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to solve the technical problems of limited spatial coverage, lagging noise map updates, and ambiguous noise source identification in existing marine acoustic monitoring. By constructing a dynamic noise map generation and intelligent interpretation engine, a marine acoustic environment dynamic monitoring system capable of realizing large-scale sound field distribution and accurate noise source tracing is introduced.

[0006] The marine acoustic environment monitoring system based on a noise map comprises:

[0007] The buoy network module is composed of at least six buoy nodes, each buoy node serving as a distributed data acquisition unit. The buoy node acquires underwater noise signals through a built-in underwater acoustic sensor array, obtains temperature, salinity, depth, and seawater flow rate data through an environmental parameter sensor, and dynamically switches transmission links according to channel quality and transmits multi-source information to a data fusion processing module through a self-reconfigurable communication circuit.

[0008] The data fusion processing module is connected with the buoy network module through a first data bus and receives buoy network data, receives satellite remote sensing data through a satellite data interface, and accesses shore-based radar data through a radar input port.

[0009] The noise map generation module is connected with the output end of the data fusion processing module through a second data bus.

[0010] The noise source identification module is connected with the output end of the noise map generation module through a third data bus.

[0011] The edge response module is in communication connection with the noise source identification module and is connected with the self-reconstruction communication circuit of each buoy node through a distributed control line.

[0012] The marine acoustic environment monitoring system based on a noise map of the application realizes high-precision, real-time and automatic monitoring of a wide-area marine acoustic environment through the cooperative work of a distributed buoy network, multi-source data fusion, noise map visualization, noise source intelligent identification and edge response.

[0013] For the optimization scheme of the above monitoring system, the hydroacoustic sensor array, the environmental parameter sensor and the self-reconstruction communication circuit included in the buoy node constitute a signal processing link through the following relationship:

[0018] The buoy node here is designed with hardware synchronization and intelligent link switching mechanism, which ensures the high quality and high reliability of the collected data from the source. The synchronous clock of the environmental parameter sensor directly triggers the underwater acoustic signal collection, eliminating the time delay error caused by different clock synchronization, and laying a solid foundation for subsequent accurate noise map generation. At the same time, the signal strength comparator intelligently switches the communication channel, effectively overcoming the problem of environmental interference of the underwater acoustic channel, ensuring the continuity and stability of the data transmission link, and avoiding the loss of key monitoring data.

The environmental compensation algorithm and the temperature difference compensation circuit are both mature technical means.

[0051] Further optimization of the above scheme, the buoy node adopts a double-layer pressure-resistant sealed cabin structure:

[0052] 1) the outer cabin body is a titanium alloy grid skeleton filled with polyurethane foam, and the pressure resistance level is greater than or equal to 10MPa;

[0053] 2) the inner cabin body is divided into a device cabin and a buoyancy adjustment cabin, and the device cabin maintains a constant pressure and temperature environment;

[0054] 3) the outer surface of the cabin body is coated with a bioresistant coating, and the surface energy is less than or equal to 25mN / m.

[0055] The buoy structure design brings excellent pressure resistance, reliability and durability. The outer cabin body filled with polyurethane foam and the titanium alloy skeleton provides high structural strength and pressure resistance, ensuring that the equipment can work normally in a deep sea environment; the inner constant pressure and temperature device cabin provides a safe and stable working environment for precision electronic components; the low surface energy bioresistant coating can effectively reduce marine bioattachment, reduce sailing resistance and maintenance cost, and prolong the on-orbit working time of the equipment. This structure design is the physical basis for ensuring that the entire system can work stably and reliably for a long time.

[0178] 4) The self-reconfigurable communication circuit 113 is built-in with a temperature difference compensation circuit, and the working temperature range is expanded to -20℃ to +55℃.

[0179] The working principle of the present application is as follows:

[0180] The system of the present application starts from a monitoring network composed of multiple buoy nodes 11, each node synchronously collects underwater noise signals through a water acoustic sensor array 111, and obtains hydrological data such as temperature, salinity, depth, flow rate, etc. in real time through an environmental parameter sensor 112. The multi-source information collected is dynamically selected by the self-reconfigurable communication circuit 113 built-in the buoy node according to the real-time quality of the water acoustic and wireless channels, and is transmitted to the corresponding processing unit through networking. The data fusion processing module 2 receives heterogeneous data from the buoy network, satellite remote sensing and shore-based radar, first performs physical layer demodulation and protocol analysis, then completes the spatio-temporal alignment of multi-source data based on GPS timing and WGS-84 coordinate system, and finally generates a unified standard fusion data packet through dimensionless processing. The data packet is delivered to the noise map generation module 3, which performs three-dimensional spatial interpolation and sound attenuation dynamic correction on the discrete monitoring point data based on the sound propagation physical model, generating a high-precision three-dimensional noise distribution map. The noise source identification module 4 extracts the spectral features of the noise map, compares them with the acoustic fingerprint feature library, and associates them with the AIS ship database information, to realize the type identification and tracing of the noise source. When the identified noise intensity exceeds the preset threshold, the module immediately triggers an alarm. The edge response module 5 starts the local response strategy according to the alarm level, losslessly compresses and encapsulates the key feature data into Beidou communication protocol frames, and uploads them to the monitoring center through the Beidou short message transmitter, and at the same time adjusts the acquisition and communication strategy of the buoy node 11 through the distributed control line in the reverse direction, to complete the intelligent closed loop from perception, analysis to decision execution.

[0181] Example one:

[0182] The system is deployed in an important shipping channel in the East China Sea. First, 12 buoy nodes are arranged in a regular hexagonal grid. The hydrophone array of a buoy node collects a continuous broadband noise with a center frequency of 187 Hz under the trigger of a synchronous clock signal. The sound pressure level is 23 dB higher than the background noise. The environmental parameter sensor synchronously records the water temperature as 17.8℃ and the salinity as 33.5‰. The self-reconfigurable communication circuit automatically switches to the 433 MHz LoRa backup link due to the decrease of the signal-to-noise ratio of the underwater acoustic channel to 8 dB, and transmits the data packet to the shore-based center station. Subsequently, the data fusion processing module receives the buoy data, AIS database information (showing that there is a container ship passing by at a speed of 18 knots 10 km away) and remote sensing sea surface temperature data. All data are unified to the WGS-84 coordinate system and added with UTC time stamps, and after normalization, the fusion data packet is generated. The noise map generation module generates a three-dimensional map showing the noise anomaly area around the ship based on the sound propagation model, and the highest noise level is 125 dB. Then, the noise source identification module extracts the line spectrum features of the noise, and after comparison with the voiceprint feature library, the spectral features of the 7-blade large skew propeller match the ship model in the AIS information with a matching degree of 92%, confirming that the container ship is the main noise source. Since the noise value exceeds the set threshold (120 dB), the module triggers a secondary alarm. After receiving the alarm, the edge response module starts local decision-making, and after lossless compression of the key spectral features and ship ID information, it is reported to the maritime supervision platform through the Beidou short message transmitter, providing real-time law enforcement basis for the supervision department.

[0183] Example two

[0184] In a certain sea area of the South China Sea, the system network encountered a typhoon. Initially, the severe sea conditions caused by the typhoon caused the attitude of multiple buoy nodes to change dramatically. The environmental adaptability enhancement module was immediately started due to the temporary signal attenuation caused by biological attachment on node No. 4. The anti-bioattachment electrode array on the buoy shell applied a -5V pulse voltage to inhibit barnacle attachment, while the temperature compensation circuit started to work, ensuring the stable operation of the circuit at a high temperature of 29℃. During the process, the anchor line of buoy No. 7 was broken and displaced due to the large waves caused by the typhoon. The adjacent nodes 6, 8 and 9 detected the failure of node No. 7 through the self-reconfiguring communication protocol, and automatically rebuilt the underwater acoustic communication routing path in 28 seconds, bypassing the fault point, transmitting data to the fusion processing center through the backup link, ensuring the integrity of the network topology and the continuity of the data. The data fusion processing module synchronously received the typhoon path data from the weather satellite and processed it as the highest priority data stream. Finally, the noise map generation module dynamically adjusted the sea surface noise source level parameter in the sound propagation model after fusing the typhoon wave noise data. Although the background noise increased significantly due to the typhoon, the grid processing submodule effectively separated the environmental noise from the abnormal signal through the sound ray tracing algorithm, accurately drawing the noise baseline map of the entire sea area during the typhoon passage; The power management submodule of the edge response module monitored the increase in communication load and automatically increased the power supply voltage by 500mV to ensure the transmission power of the Beidou communication submodule under harsh conditions, successfully transmitting the key acoustic and environmental data during the entire typhoon event back to the system, providing valuable data sets for studying the impact of typhoons on the marine acoustic environment.

[0185] The present application constructs an ocean acoustic environment monitoring system integrating intelligent sensing, accurate analysis and active response. The system cooperatively collects multi-source data through a distributed buoy network, generates a high-precision three-dimensional noise map after deep fusion processing, and realizes accurate tracing and classification of noise sources relying on intelligent identification algorithms. Finally, the system dynamically optimizes the monitoring strategy and data transmission through the edge response mechanism, forming a closed-loop control from environmental perception to intelligent decision-making, significantly improving the real-time, reliability and automation level of marine environmental monitoring.
