Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tunnel deformation and vibration monitoring technology, specifically to a non-contact monitoring system and method for tunnel deformation and vibration. Background Technology

[0002] The modern transportation system comprises infrastructure such as subways, high-speed railways, and expressways, with tunnels being a crucial component. Their safety during construction and operation is paramount. Under complex and variable geological conditions and environmental circumstances, tunnel structures are prone to deformation (including settlement). If settlement or deformation exceeds safety limits, it can easily lead to major safety accidents, seriously threatening economic and social development and the safety of people's lives and property. Furthermore, external impacts and vibrations can also cause vibration damage to tunnel structures. Therefore, 24 / 7 monitoring of tunnel structural deformation and vibration is an urgent engineering requirement.

[0003] To address the aforementioned needs, current main monitoring methods include static levels, total stations, and distributed fiber optic systems. Static levels are susceptible to factors such as temperature, delay effects, liquid materials, and air pressure. Total stations calculate deformation by measuring the relative coordinates of various reference points, but the measurement process is easily affected by terrain visibility and weather conditions, and requires manual single-point measurement. Distributed fiber optic tunnel deformation monitoring requires embedded fiber optic cables, which are difficult to install and maintain. Therefore, existing technologies and methods struggle to solve the challenges of multi-point, long-distance, and high-precision monitoring of tunnel profile and alignment deformation and vibration, and also face significant difficulties in terms of monitoring convenience, all-weather monitoring capabilities, and automation.

[0004] The invention patent with publication number CN109100735A discloses a subway tunnel deformation monitoring system and method, including: a central processing unit, a host, a monitoring module, a vibration sensor, a signal processing circuit, an A / D conversion module, an image acquisition module, and an image processing module; wherein, the vibration sensor is connected to the signal processing circuit, the signal processing circuit is connected to the A / D conversion module, the image acquisition module is connected to the image processing module, both the A / D conversion module and the image processing module are connected to the central processing unit, the central processing unit is bidirectionally connected to the host, and the monitoring module is connected to the central processing unit.

[0014] When monitoring the deformation and vibration of measuring points along the tunnel alignment, transmitting and receiving antenna arrays must be arranged according to the tunnel alignment. When monitoring both the tunnel profile and the alignment, a combination of antennas must be arranged in both directions. The transmitting antenna array must have at least two transmitting antennas, and the spacing between the transmitting antennas can be equal or unequal. The receiving antenna array must have at least one receiving antenna, and the spacing between the receiving antennas can be equal or unequal.

[0019] Secondly, a non-contact monitoring method for tunnel deformation and vibration is provided, the method comprising:

[0020] Step S1: Based on the distribution of monitoring points in the tunnel structure and the installation location of the microwave transceiver, determine the scanning angle direction sequence of the transmitted synthetic beam of the microwave transceiver;

These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0048] This invention provides a non-contact monitoring method for tunnel deformation and vibration, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the method specifically includes the following steps:

[0049] Step S1: Based on the distribution of monitoring points in the tunnel structure and the installation location of the microwave transceiver, determine the scanning angle direction sequence of the transmitted synthetic beam of the microwave transceiver. For example... Figure 2 As shown, five measuring points are displayed, corresponding to the scanning angles of four tunnel profile measuring points and one tunnel alignment measuring point.

[0050] Step S2: The microwave transceiver sequentially controls the transmission of a synthetic beam toward the sequence elements of the scanning angle direction, while simultaneously receiving echo signals and acquiring the generated baseband signal.

[0051] The microwave transceiver uses phase shift control to enable the transmitting antenna array to emit a synthesized beam. The main lobe of the synthesized beam faces the scanning angle direction. The beam scanning angle control method is as follows:

[0052] Let the scanning angle direction sequence be [θ1,…θ s ,…θ S If s = 1, 2, ..., S, then the scanning angle direction is θ. s At that time, with the first transmitting antenna as the reference point, the phase shift control elements or phase shifters of each antenna in the transmitting antenna array are set to 0 and 2πd²sinθ, respectively. i / λ c ,…,2πd K sinθ i / λ c ;

[0053] In the formula, d k (n=2,…K) represents the distance between the k-th transmitting antenna and the first transmitting antenna, λ c θ is the wavelength corresponding to the center frequency of a linearly frequency-modulated continuous wave. s The beam scanning angle is referenced to the central axis. Each transmitting antenna transmits a linear frequency modulated continuous wave (LFM) signal or other signals equivalent to LFM.

[0054] Step S3: Process the acquired baseband signal. Based on the principle of phase interferometry and nonlinear demodulation, extract the deformation and vibration displacement values ​​of the measurement points of each scanning angle direction sequence element in sequence.

[0055] The extraction of the deformation and vibration displacement values ​​of the measurement points for each scanning angle direction sequence element includes:

[0056] Each transmitting antenna transmits a linear frequency modulated continuous wave. Based on the principle of phase interferometry, the deformation and vibration displacement values ​​x(p,θ) of the sequence elements at a certain scanning angle direction during a certain scanning period are extracted using a nonlinear demodulation method. s The calculation is as follows:

[0057]

[0058] In the formula, x(p,θ) s iT sweep This represents the p-th cyclic scan, with a transmission sweep period of i and scan angle direction sequence elements of θ. s The deformation and vibration displacement values ​​of the corresponding measuring points, T sweep The frequency sweep period for transmitting a linear frequency modulated continuous wave via the transmitting antenna is defined as follows: arg[·] represents the operation of taking complex phase values, N is the number of single-channel baseband signal elements in each frequency sweep period, n is the index of the single-channel baseband signal element in each frequency sweep period, and T is the number of elements.s The sampling frequency and time of the baseband signal, s B (p,θ s iT,nT s ) represents the p-th cyclic scan, with the scan angle direction sequence element being θ. s The matrix consists of the baseband signals from the M receiving antenna channels during the i-th transmit sweep cycle.

The aforementioned nonlinear demodulation calculation method can also be transformed into other demodulation calculation formulas without changing its fundamental nature.

[0059] The number of emission cycles i for each scanning angle is a positive integer equal to or greater than 1. When it is greater than 1, x(p,θ) is used as needed. s Take x(p,θ) within multiple transmit frequency sweep cycles of the current scan period. s iT sweep The average or optimal value of the sequence, or other selected values.

[0060] Step S4: Based on the above steps, perform cyclic scanning measurements at certain intervals to obtain time history signals of deformation and vibration displacement at all monitoring points.

[0061] In this step, the time history signals of deformation and vibration displacement of all monitoring points are obtained through cyclic scanning, including:

[0063] Handling of special working conditions: Under long-term monitoring, special working conditions in the tunnel, including but not limited to vehicle passage and personnel passage, can easily cause interference to non-contact measurements. We will identify and remove abnormal data caused by special working conditions, thereby improving the reliability and automation of monitoring.

[0064] Identification methods include, but are not limited to, judging abnormal increases in the amplitude of the baseband signal, dynamic changes, abnormal increases in the peak value of the spectrum, and rapid and large fluctuations in the displacement value of the measurement point, or judging based on special working conditions.

[0065] The aforementioned non-contact monitoring method for tunnel deformation and vibration, through synthetic beam scanning measurement, requires only a microwave transceiver to complete the monitoring of deformation and vibration displacement at all measuring points along the tunnel profile and the route direction. Furthermore, it does not require the installation of targets, including corner reflectors, and is easy to operate and convenient in engineering.

[0068] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the microwave transceiver includes: a linear frequency modulated continuous wave microwave signal source, a power divider, a mixer, a phase shifter, an amplifier, a transmitting antenna array, and a receiving antenna array. The signal source is connected to the power divider, and a portion of it is connected to the phase shifter, radiating the signal through the transmitting antenna; the other portion serves as the local oscillator signal for mixing. The phase shifter is connected to the transmitting antenna and is used to adjust the main lobe of the synthesized beam transmitted by the transmitting antenna array towards a set scanning angle through phase shift control.

The number of phase shifters is equal to the number of transmitting antennas; the phase shifters can also be time delay lines or other devices with phase shift control functions.

[0069] The arrangement of the transmitting and receiving antenna arrays is as follows: Based on the distribution of monitoring points along the tunnel structure and the installation location of the microwave transceivers, when monitoring the tunnel profile, the transmitting and receiving antenna arrays must be arranged according to the angular distribution direction of the monitoring points along the tunnel profile, such as... Figure 5 As shown, when monitoring the deformation and vibration of measuring points along the tunnel alignment, transmitting and receiving antenna arrays must be arranged according to the tunnel alignment direction. When monitoring both the tunnel profile and the alignment direction simultaneously, a combination of antennas in both directions is required. The transmitting antenna array must have at least two transmitting antennas, spaced evenly or unequally. The receiving antenna array must have at least one receiving antenna, spaced evenly or unequally. In actual monitoring, deformation and vibration monitoring of tunnel profile measuring points and tunnel alignment measuring points can be conducted separately as needed.

[0075] This invention provides a non-contact monitoring system and method for tunnel deformation and vibration. Based on the distribution of monitoring points on the tunnel structure and the installation location of the microwave transceiver, the scanning angle direction sequence of the transmitted synthetic beam of the microwave transceiver is determined. The microwave transceiver sequentially controls the transmission of synthetic beams oriented towards the elements of the scanning angle direction sequence, while simultaneously receiving echo signals and acquiring the generated baseband signal. The acquired baseband signal is processed, and based on the principle of phase interferometry and nonlinear demodulation, the deformation and vibration displacement values ​​of each monitoring point are sequentially extracted. According to the above method, cyclic scanning measurements are performed at certain periodic intervals to obtain the time history signals of deformation and vibration displacement of all monitored points, realizing automated monitoring of deformation and vibration displacement of all monitoring points along the tunnel profile and track direction. Through microwave beam synthesis scanning deformation and vibration measurement, the problem of not being able to detect multiple monitoring points on the tunnel profile using a single microwave transceiver is solved (see [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 2 This method not only solves the limitation of requiring targets, including corner reflectors, in the measurement of micro-waveform changes and vibrations in tunnel profiles and along the railway line, but also overcomes the interference of coupling clutter from other targets in the microwave detection field of view due to the scanning beamforming measurement method.
