Description

Technical Field

[0002] Ground penetrating radar is a non-destructive detection device that uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves to obtain the distribution law of underground media. It is the mainstream method for detecting defects such as tunnel lining cavities and cracks, and has the advantages of fast speed and high resolution. Traditional multi-channel ground penetrating radar usually consists of four parts: timing control module, signal source, transceiver antenna, and host computer. According to the number of receivers and transmitters, it can be divided into two systems: multiple transmission and multiple reception and one transmission and multiple reception. The former usually has multiple groups of transceiver antennas and pulse sources, and can be configured with multiple frequency bands at the same time to improve the detection accuracy and range of the radar; the latter usually has one transmitting antenna, one pulse source and multiple receiving antennas, and can only be configured with one frequency band to meet a series of more complex detection needs such as three-dimensional imaging.

The transceiver (3) is assembled as follows: in the transceiver body (302), the space below the upper horizontal slide groove (302c) is filled with pearl cotton sheet material for supporting and fixing the transmitting antenna (302e) and the receiving antenna (302f); the sampling unit is connected to the receiving antenna (302f) and the pulse source is connected to the transmitting antenna (302e), and the transceiver cover (301) and the transceiver body (302) are tightly buckled and fitted; Step s2. The host box (1) is tested and assembled for communication, as follows: Step s21. The host box (1) communication test: connect the host box (1) to the USB aviation socket (5), test whether the communication function of the acquisition card (103) is normal, and execute the next step normally; Step s22. The six branches of the six-core coaxial bundled cable are respectively connected to the corresponding ports of the acquisition card (103), the power module (105) and the timing control circuit board (107) in the host box (1) to realize data interaction with the transceiver (3) and power supply and reception; Step s3. Multi-channel whole machine joint debugging test, as follows: The input signal of the Doppler radar (7) is transmitted into the mainframe housing (1) through a cable and a DB8 aviation socket (4) and connected to the acquisition card 103; a plurality of the transceivers (3) are connected to the mainframe housing (1) through a six-core coaxial bundled cable; the radar echo data collected by the acquisition card (103) is connected to a computer host computer (6) through a USB aviation socket (5); the computer host computer (6) is used to simultaneously display the ground penetrating radar echo waveforms of multiple channels; and when the detected target moves, the displayed echo waveform is observed in time sampling mode and distance sampling mode to see whether it changes in real time, thereby ensuring that the data processing rate meets the real-time display and storage requirements.
