Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of electric power systems and relates to a life assessment method, system, equipment and storage medium for an OPGW optical cable. Background Art

[0002] OPGW (optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) cable places optical fiber in the ground wire of overhead high-voltage transmission lines to form an optical fiber communication network on the transmission line. This structural form has both ground wire and communication functions, called OPGW cable, which is widely used in power systems to carry signal transmission services of power communication networks. When working, OPGW cables are often in complex and harsh environments, subject to the impact of meteorological disasters such as ice, lightning, strong winds, heavy rain and high temperatures, and have become a weak link in the transmission network. The health of the OPGW cable operation is directly related to the communication security of the power system. With the increasing number of overhead transmission lines such as ultra-high voltage, long distance and important spans, the safety of OPGW cables in complex environments has become increasingly prominent.

[0003] The life of OPGW optical cables is related to the cable's material, structure, line conditions, natural environment, construction method, and whether there is lightning strike. The life of OPGW optical cables that have been in operation for more than 15 years varies greatly. Some have been retired after being struck by lightning and broken, some are in good condition and can continue to operate, and some are in poor condition and need life assessment. If a one-size-fits-all approach is adopted to overhaul or retire OPGW optical cables, it will cause huge economic losses. Therefore, life assessment of OPGW optical cables helps to improve the refined management of optical cables and provide corresponding technical support for the full life cycle management of OPGW optical cables.

[0004] The life assessment of existing OPGW optical cables is mainly carried out by detecting the strain of the optical fiber in the OPGW optical cable, and the remaining life of the OPGW optical cable is obtained based on the current strain value and the optical fiber life assessment model. However, due to the excess length of the optical fiber in the OPGW optical cable, it is difficult to judge the strain change of the optical fiber without factory strain data. At the same time, optical fiber distributed strain testing equipment, such as BOTDA and BOTDR, is expensive and not widely used in front-line operation and maintenance, and there is insufficient historical data on optical fiber strain.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0061] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0062] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0063] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for evaluating the life of an OPGW optical cable is provided. The optical path loss is used as the degradation amount, the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable is equivalent to a Wiener process, and the life distribution function of the OPGW optical cable is established through the Wiener process, thereby realizing the life evaluation of the OPGW optical cable.

[0064] Specifically, the life assessment method of the OPGW optical cable comprises the following steps:

[0065] S1: Obtain the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable.

[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, an optical time domain analyzer is used to test the optical path loss of each fiber core in the OPGW optical cable, thereby obtaining the optical path loss data of each fiber core in the OPGW optical cable as a data source for the life assessment of the OPGW optical cable. Among them, the optical time domain analyzer (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, OTDR) obtains attenuation information by using the backscattered light generated when light propagates in the optical fiber, and can be used to measure optical fiber attenuation, joint loss, optical fiber fault point location, and understand the loss distribution along the length of the optical fiber.

[0067] See Table 1, which is a specific optical path loss data record table of an OPGW optical cable. Ten optical cores are arranged in the OPGW optical cable. The optical path loss of each optical core is tested in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 at a time interval of one year.

[0069]

[0070]

[0071] S2: According to the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable, the failure threshold of the OPGW optical cable and the expectation and variance of the OPGW optical cable life are obtained through the preset optical path loss variation likelihood function.

[0072] Specifically, the specific method of obtaining the failure threshold of the OPGW optical cable according to the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable through a preset optical path loss variation likelihood function is as follows: according to a number of optical path loss data of each fiber core, obtain a number of optical path loss variations of each fiber core, wherein the optical path loss variation is the difference between the optical path loss at a current moment and a previous moment; fit the several optical path loss variations of each fiber core to a number of normally distributed optical path loss variation functions, respectively, to obtain the normally distributed optical path loss variation function of each fiber core, and average the normally distributed optical path loss variation functions of each fiber core to obtain the normally distributed optical path loss variation function of the OPGW optical cable; according to the normally distributed optical path loss variation function of the OPGW optical cable, obtain the optical path loss variation mean and the optical path loss variation variance of the OPGW optical cable; according to the optical path loss variation mean and the optical path loss variation variance of the OPGW optical cable, obtain the failure threshold of the OPGW optical cable through a preset optical path loss variation likelihood function.

[0073] Among them, when fitting the optical path loss changes of several fiber cores, it is necessary to correct the obviously abnormal optical path loss changes, such as modifying the current value to a reasonable range, to ensure the accuracy of the fitting results. At the same time, by averaging the normally distributed optical path loss change function of each fiber core, the normally distributed optical path loss change function of the OPGW optical cable is obtained, which effectively improves the effectiveness of the life assessment of the OPGW optical cable and prevents the large error of the optical path loss data of a single fiber core from having a significant impact on the life assessment results.

[0074] First of all, regarding product degradation, the performance of the product degrades due to its use. The external cause is the effect of energy, and the internal cause is the irreversible change in the material performance and state, which is a cumulative failure. As time goes on, the damage continues to accumulate, the technical characteristics of the product continue to degrade, and when the damage reaches a certain limit value, the product will fail. Therefore, the possibility of product failure is related to the approach of the parameters to the limit state, and the approach of the product output parameters to its limit state is usually an evolutionary process. Due to many random factors such as the product working environment, stress, and internal material properties, the evolution process is generally a random process. The performance degradation of the product is caused by the continuous accumulation of damage inside the product. Depending on the damage process, the performance degradation process may be discrete, continuous, or both. Therefore, using a random process for degradation modeling will be more in line with engineering practice, that is, the Wiener process.

[0075] The Wiener process is used to describe a random process with stable independent increments, and its degradation and increments follow a normal distribution. During the use of OPGW optical cables, some performance parameters degrade, and these degradations are caused by the superposition of a large number of influencing factors. According to the central limit theorem, it is reasonable to believe that some performance parameters of OPGW optical cables, such as the change in optical path loss, can be approximately described by a normal distribution. Due to its simple structure and relatively rich research results, the Wiener process has become the most widely used method in degradation process modeling. The Wiener process is convenient for analyzing and calculating product life and reliability, can describe the time uncertainty of the product degradation process, and is relatively easy to handle and measure data with errors.

[0076] Based on this, in this embodiment, by taking the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable as the degradation amount, the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable is equivalent to the Wiener process, and then the optical path loss variation likelihood function is obtained.

[0077] Specifically, since the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable is equivalent to a Wiener process, it is assumed that the optical path loss variation obeys a normal distribution, and the optical path loss variation likelihood function L(μ,σ 2 ) is shown in formula (1):

[0078]

[0079] Where μ is the mean change in optical path loss of the OPGW optical cable, σ 2 is the variance of the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable, n is the total number of optical path loss variations of the OPGW optical cable, Δx i is the optical path loss change of the i-th OPGW optical cable, Δt i is the time interval corresponding to the change in optical path loss of the i-th OPGW optical cable, and the corresponding time interval refers to the test time interval between two optical path losses in the change in optical path loss; the change in optical path loss of the OPGW optical cable is the average value of the change in optical path loss of each fiber core at the same time.

[0080] Specifically, according to the mean value and variance of the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable, the specific method for obtaining the failure threshold of the OPGW optical cable through the preset optical path loss variation likelihood function is as follows: the mean value and variance of the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable are substituted into the optical path loss variation likelihood function to obtain the optical path loss variation likelihood function value, and the logarithm of the optical path loss variation likelihood function value is obtained through formula (2) to obtain the failure threshold Df of the OPGW optical cable:

[0081]

[0082] On the basis of obtaining the failure threshold Df of the OPGW optical cable, combined with the mean value of the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable and the variance of the optical path loss variation of the OPGW optical cable, the expected life of the OPGW optical cable is obtained by formula (3): The variance of OPGW optical cable life is obtained by formula (4):

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] S3: According to the expectation and variance of the OPGW optical cable life, the life evaluation result of the OPGW optical cable is obtained through a preset life distribution function.

[0086] The preset lifetime distribution function is obtained by taking the optical path loss change of the OPGW optical cable as the degradation amount and equating the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable to a Wiener process.

[0087] Specifically, after the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable is equivalent to the Wiener process, the distribution of the life span T of the OPGW optical cable is an inverse Gaussian distribution, and the life span distribution function is shown in formula (5):

[0088]

[0089] Combining the above equations (3) and (4), the life distribution function is transformed into equation (6):

[0090]

[0091] The specific method of obtaining the life evaluation result of the OPGW optical cable according to the expectation and variance of the life of the OPGW optical cable through the preset life distribution function is: according to the expectation and variance of the life of the OPGW optical cable, solve the preset life distribution function F(t) to obtain the life distribution of the OPGW optical cable, that is, the life evaluation result of the OPGW optical cable. Among them, the meaning represented by the life distribution function value is the probability of the life of the OPGW optical cable within the time of 0 to t, and the life of the OPGW optical cable is characterized according to the data.

[0092] In summary, the life assessment method of the OPGW optical cable of the present invention obtains the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable, and then uses the optical path loss change likelihood function obtained by taking the optical path loss change as the degradation amount and equating the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable to the Wiener process to calculate the failure threshold of the OPGW optical cable and the expectation and variance of the life of the OPGW optical cable. Then, the life assessment result of the OPGW optical cable is obtained by taking the optical path loss change as the degradation amount and equating the degradation process of the OPGW optical cable to the Wiener process. According to the life assessment result of the OPGW optical cable, the refined management of the OPGW optical cable can be realized and the management cost can be reduced. At the same time, in the whole process, only the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable needs to be obtained, and the data acquisition cost is low, thereby reducing the cost of the life assessment of the entire OPGW optical cable. In addition, the optical path loss data of the OPGW optical cable is commonly obtained in practical use, and most OPGW optical cables record optical path loss data, and the data source is complete and rich.

[0093] In yet another embodiment of the present invention, a method for evaluating the life of an OPGW optical cable is provided. In addition to all the contents of the above embodiments, the method for evaluating the life of an OPGW optical cable further includes the following steps:

[0094] According to the life evaluation result of the OPGW optical cable, the minimum time t when the life distribution function F(t) is equal to 1 is obtained, the working life of the OPGW optical cable is obtained, the working life of the OPGW optical cable is obtained, and the working life of the OPGW optical cable is subtracted from the working life of the OPGW optical cable to obtain the remaining life of the OPGW optical cable.

[0095] In the above process, the time when the optical path loss first reaches the failure threshold is taken as the working life of the OPGW optical cable, and then combined with the working life of the OPGW optical cable, the remaining life of the OPGW optical cable is obtained. This result can guide the maintenance or retirement of the OPGW optical cable and realize the refined management of the OPGW optical cable.
