[0079] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this article to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this article. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this article, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this article, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this article.
[0080] In order to determine the contamination of the roadbed, it is necessary to detect the echo signal and determine the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal and the signal time domain scanning area. In the prior art, roadbed contamination detection is mostly performed by radar antennas, but the existing antennas have detection errors during detection, resulting in different echo signals when different antennas detect the same roadbed, which reduces the accuracy of detection.
[0081] In order to solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for calibrating track bed contamination detection data. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the steps of a calibration method for track bed dirt detection data provided in the embodiments of this article. This specification provides the method operation steps described in the embodiments or flowcharts, but may include more or fewer operation steps based on conventional or non-creative labor. The order of steps listed in the embodiments is only one way of executing the steps among many orders, and does not represent the only order of execution. When the actual system or device product is executed, it can be executed in the order of the methods shown in the embodiments or drawings or in parallel.
[0082] Reference Figure 1 , a calibration method for roadbed contamination detection data, comprising:
[0083] S101: Obtaining a test value of a reference antenna and a test value of a selected antenna under the same environment;
[0084] S102: Obtaining a scaling factor according to a test value of the reference antenna and a test value of the selected antenna;
[0085] S103: Calibrate the detection data of the selected antenna using the scaling factor.
[0086] The most common detection method is to detect the contamination of the roadbed using a radar test system. Generally, a radar antenna is used to transmit a radar signal, i.e., an electromagnetic wave, and the electromagnetic wave echo signal reflected by the roadbed is collected for further analysis and calculation to obtain the contamination status of the roadbed.
[0087] The reference antenna refers to an antenna whose performance and indicators meet the standards. Specifically, the reference antenna can be screened according to the screening criteria of Highway Section Flaw Detection and Structural Layer Thickness Ground Penetrating Radar JJG (Transportation) 124-2015.
[0088] The selected antenna is the one that needs to be calibrated. Due to its own performance, there will inevitably be detection errors when using the selected antenna to detect roadbed contamination. For the same roadbed, it may be necessary to detect contamination more than once, but there is no guarantee that the same reference antenna will be used for each detection. If the same reference antenna is used every time, there is no guarantee that the reference antenna will not produce errors every time it is used, and the detection results will not be affected by the errors.
[0089] On this basis, the calibration method described in this article was developed. After obtaining the roadbed contamination detection data of the selected antenna, the scaling factor is obtained through the test value of the reference antenna and the test value of the selected antenna under the same environment. The detection data is calibrated by the scaling factor, and the detection data of the same roadbed can be calibrated according to a unified standard, ensuring the accuracy of the detection results of the same roadbed. With the calibration method in this article, when the same roadbed is tested multiple times, there is no need to spend time to ensure that the antenna used for each test is the same. Therefore, in addition to improving the accuracy of roadbed contamination detection, the calibration method described in this article can also improve the efficiency of roadbed detection.
[0090] In the embodiment of this article, the test value of the reference antenna is: the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal or the time-domain scanning area of the echo signal obtained after the reference antenna transmits the radar signal;
[0091] The test value of the selected antenna is: the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal or the time-domain scanning area of the echo signal obtained after the selected antenna transmits the radar signal.
[0092] This article describes two calibration methods. For the first method, the test value can be the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal. The peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the reference antenna and the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the selected antenna are used to obtain the scaling factor to calibrate the detection data of the selected antenna. For the second method, the test value can be the time domain scanning area of the echo signal. The time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna and the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the selected antenna are used to obtain the scaling factor to calibrate the detection data of the selected antenna.
[0093] Specifically, for a radar antenna, no matter it is a reference antenna or a selected antenna, it includes a transmitting end and a receiving end, the transmitting end is used to transmit a radar signal, and the receiving end is used to receive an echo signal.
[0094] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2is the echo signal received by the receiving end, and the dotted line shows the peak value of the echo signal. After receiving the echo signal, the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal can be further obtained, and the peak-to-valley difference is the difference between the peak and the trough. The peak here can be the peak of the entire echo signal, and the trough can be the trough of the entire echo signal, or the trough adjacent to the preceding peak, or the trough adjacent to the succeeding peak, or the trough with the largest difference from the peak in the preceding trough of the peak, or the trough with the largest difference from the peak in the succeeding trough of the peak. Which of the above troughs to be used can be set according to actual conditions.
[0095] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 is the echo signal received by the receiving end, Figure 3 The sum of the areas in the middle shaded area is the time domain scanning area of the echo signal, where the method for determining the time domain scanning area of the echo signal is: using time as the horizontal coordinate and the signal amplitude as the vertical coordinate, constructing a coordinate system, plotting the echo signal in the coordinate system, and the sum of the areas enclosed by the echo signal and the horizontal coordinate is the time domain scanning area of the echo signal. It should be noted that because the area enclosed by the echo signal and the horizontal coordinate is calculated, whether the amplitude of the echo signal is positive or negative does not affect the calculation of the area.
[0096] Specifically, there are many methods to obtain the area enclosed by the echo signal and the horizontal coordinate. The idea of definite integral can be used to "subdivide" the time of the horizontal coordinate into multiple time periods, calculate the average value of the echo signal corresponding to each time period, and multiply the absolute value of the average value by the time period to obtain the area of the time period. By this method, the areas of multiple time periods are obtained, and then summed up to obtain the area enclosed by the echo signal and the horizontal coordinate. In addition, the area can also be calculated by other mathematical methods such as calculus, and this article does not limit the specific method.
[0097] Furthermore, obtaining the test value of the reference antenna and the test value of the selected antenna under the same environment further includes:
[0098] Under the same environment, the reference antenna and the selected antenna are respectively tested by a first test device to obtain a peak-to-valley difference value of an echo signal of the reference antenna and a peak-to-valley difference value of an echo signal of the selected antenna;
[0099] Alternatively, the reference antenna and the selected antenna are tested respectively by a second test device under the same environment to obtain the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna and the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the selected antenna.
[0100] Reference Figure 4The first test equipment includes two first brackets 1, a metal plate 2, a first connecting rod 3, a first antenna 4, a first connecting member 5, a first distance encoder (not shown in the figure) and a first main control unit (not shown in the figure).
[0101] The metal plate 2 is placed between the two first brackets 1 and laid flat on the hard and flat ground. The two ends of the first connecting rod 3 are respectively connected to the two first brackets 1. The first antenna 4 is set on the first connecting rod 3 through the first connecting member 5, so that the center of the first antenna 4 and the center of the metal plate 2 are kept horizontally without deviation, and a first set distance is maintained between the first antenna 4 and the metal plate 2; wherein the first connecting member 5 can be a connecting rod, a connecting block or other structures with a connecting function. The first set distance is set according to the actual working conditions. In this article, the first set distance can be 300mm.
[0102] The first antenna 4 is used to receive the instruction of the first main control unit to transmit the radar signal, and after receiving the echo signal, send the echo signal to the first main control unit.
[0103] The first antenna 4 is a reference antenna or a selected antenna. The environment for testing the reference antenna or the selected antenna is the same, including the same connection method of the cable between the first antenna 4 and the first main control unit. The cable is kept flat and must not be knotted or coiled.
[0104] When conducting the test, the following settings need to be set: sampling point 512, time window 15ns, channel spacing 5cm, pulse frequency 800k, distance trigger, no gain, and the test system is preheated for 5min. Turn the first distance encoder to continuously receive multiple echo signals.
[0105] Specifically, after the transmitting end of the first antenna 4 transmits a radar signal, the receiving end receives the echo signal within 15ns reflected by the metal plate 2, divides the echo signal, and obtains the echo signal values corresponding to the 512 sampling points. Then the first distance encoder can be rotated 5cm. It should be noted that in the embodiment of this article, the first distance encoder is rotated but the actual first antenna 4 does not move and remains in the initial position. Then the radar signal is transmitted again, and the above steps are repeated multiple times to obtain multiple echo signals.
[0106] Reference Figure 6 After receiving the multi-channel echo signal, the signal needs to be processed:
[0107] S201: performing band-pass filtering on the multi-channel echo signals, wherein the low-pass filter is 4000 MHz and the high-pass filter is 100 MHz;
[0108] S202: performing average calculation on the multi-channel echo signals after bandpass filtering to obtain a representative echo signal.
[0109] The method of averaging calculation in the above step S202 is: calculating the average value of the multi-channel echo signals corresponding to each sampling point in the time domain to obtain a representative echo signal value corresponding to the sampling point, and combining multiple echo signal points in the entire time domain to obtain a representative echo signal.
[0110] Specifically, because each echo signal is composed of 512 sampling points, multiple echo signals (N echo signals) can form a matrix of 512 rows and N columns. During the averaging calculation, the N data in each row can be averaged to form a representative echo signal value of the row. The representative echo signal is 1 column and 512 rows of data.
[0111] Of course, in step S202, the median or mode of the filtered multi-channel echo signals may also be calculated. Any method that can obtain representative echo signals may be applicable, and this document does not limit the specific method.
[0112] After obtaining a representative echo signal, the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal may be further obtained, that is, the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the reference antenna / selected antenna.
[0113] Reference Figure 5 The second test equipment includes two second brackets 6, a standard ballast model box 7, a second connecting rod 8, a second antenna 9, a second connecting member 10, a second distance encoder (not shown in the figure) and a second main control unit (not shown in the figure).
[0114] The standard ballast model box 7 is placed between the two second brackets 6. The length and width of the standard ballast model box 7 are not less than twice the corresponding size of the second antenna 9. The ballast thickness is not less than 100 cm. The box body shall not be made of metal material. The ballast model box should be kept in a dry and vibration-free environment for a long time. The two ends of the second connecting rod 8 are respectively connected to the two second brackets 6. The second antenna 9 is set on the second connecting rod 8 through the second connecting member 10 to keep the center of the second antenna 9 and the center of the metal plate 2 horizontally without deviation. The second antenna 9 and the standard ballast model box 7 are maintained at a second set distance; wherein the second connecting member 10 can be a connecting rod, a connecting block or other structures with a connecting function. The second set distance is set according to the actual working conditions. In this article, the second set distance can be 300 mm.
[0115] The second antenna 9 is used to receive the instruction of the second main control unit to transmit the radar signal, and receive the echo signal and send it to the second main control unit.
[0116] The second antenna 9 is a reference antenna or a selected antenna. The environment for testing the reference antenna or the selected antenna is the same, including the same connection method of the cable between the second antenna 9 and the second main control unit. The cable is kept flat and must not be knotted or coiled.
[0117] When conducting the test, the following settings need to be set: sampling point 512, time window 15ns, channel spacing 5cm, pulse frequency 800k, distance trigger, no gain, and the test system is preheated for 5min. Turn the second distance encoder to continuously receive multiple echo signals.
[0118] After receiving the multi-channel echo signals, the signals also need to be processed. The processing method is shown in the above steps S201 and S202.
[0119] After obtaining a representative echo signal, the time domain scanning area of the echo signal may be further obtained, that is, the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna / selected antenna.
[0120] In the embodiment of this article, obtaining the scaling factor according to the test value of the reference antenna and the test value of the selected antenna further includes:
[0121] Obtaining a first scaling factor according to a correlation between a peak-to-valley difference value of an echo signal of the reference antenna and a peak-to-valley difference value of an echo signal of the selected antenna;
[0122] Or, the second scaling factor is obtained according to the correlation between the time-domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna and the time-domain scanning area of the echo signal of the selected antenna.
[0123] The correlation is mainly manifested as: taking the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the reference antenna / time domain scanning area as the standard, measuring the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the selected antenna / time domain scanning area. For example, taking the number 10 as the standard, the number 5 is half of 10, and the number 2 is 1 / 5 of 10. "Half" indicates the correlation between 5 and 10, and "1 / 5" indicates the correlation between 2 and 10.
[0124] From the above, it can be seen that the best way to reflect the correlation is division. The first scaling factor can be obtained by dividing the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the selected antenna by the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the reference antenna. Similarly, the second scaling factor can be obtained by dividing the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the selected antenna by the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna.
[0125] Of course, it is conceivable that if the scaling factor is determined by division, it is necessary to ensure that the reference antenna and the selected antenna have the same environmental conditions when obtaining the echo signal peak-to-valley difference / time domain scanning area, and are not interfered by other external factors.
[0126] Specifically, the first scaling factor is calculated by the following formula:
[0127]
[0128] in, is the first scaling factor, V R0 is the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the reference antenna, V R It is the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal of the selected antenna.
[0129] The second scaling factor is calculated by the following formula:
[0130] μ = StAb0 / StAb;
[0131] Wherein, μ is the second scaling factor, StAb0 is the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the reference antenna, and StAb is the time domain scanning area of the echo signal of the selected antenna.
[0132] Of course, assuming that the reference antenna and the selected antenna are interfered by external factors when acquiring the peak-to-valley difference value / time-domain scanning area of the echo signal, the scaling factor can also be obtained by simply quantifying the interference of the external factors.
[0133] Specifically, assuming that when the reference antenna and the selected antenna obtain the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal through the first test equipment, the distances between the reference antenna and the selected antenna and the metal plate 2 are not the same as the first set distance, the distance between the reference antenna and the metal plate 2 is A, and the distance between the selected antenna and the metal plate 2 is B. At this time, it is only necessary to determine the effect of the distance on the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal. The distance between the antenna and the metal plate 2 can be used as the horizontal coordinate, and the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal can be used as the vertical coordinate to obtain a curve showing that the peak-to-valley difference of the echo signal changes with the distance between the antenna and the metal plate 2. Then determine the difference between the distances A and B, and roughly calculate the value corresponding to the selected antenna when the distance is A based on the difference, and further determine the first scaling factor through the above-mentioned division.
[0134] In an embodiment of this invention, calibrating the detection data of the selected antenna by the scaling factor further comprises:
[0135] The scaling factor is multiplied by the detection data of the selected antenna to obtain calibrated detection data.
[0136] Specifically, the detection data of the selected antenna is multiplied by the sum of the first scaling factor or the second scaling factor to obtain the calibrated detection data.
