[0002] Drainage pipelines are important infrastructure for maintaining the normal operation of cities, and undertake the tasks of urban rainwater, sewage collection, transportation and treatment. According to statistics, the length of urban drainage pipelines in China exceeded 870,000 kilometers in 2021. The length of urban drainage pipelines is maintaining a high growth trend. At the same time, with the increase of the use time of drainage pipelines and the occurrence of geological activities, pipeline rupture leading to leakage occurs from time to time. Drainage pipeline leakage is divided into external leakage and internal leakage. External leakage can seriously pollute groundwater and affect the health and safety of residents; internal leakage can increase the cost of sewage treatment plants and reduce the processing efficiency. In addition, pipeline leakage can affect the soil around the pipeline, causing soil erosion and leading to the formation of underground disease bodies and possibly causing road collapse, threatening people's life and property safety. Therefore, timely detection of drainage pipeline leakage and accurate detection of the location of drainage pipeline leakage points play an important role in the normal and safe operation of cities.

[0003] However, in the prior art, there are still many difficulties in positioning the leakage point of the drainage pipeline in the complex urban environment. For example, the infrared thermal imaging method is easily affected by the environment temperature and underground water; the CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) video equipment method and the sonar method mostly need to be pre-washed, and have certain requirements for the detection operating water level. The current mainstream drainage pipe material is non-metal. The physical properties of non-metallic materials are not significantly different from the surrounding soil, so when traditional geophysical methods such as ground penetrating radar are applied, the detection depth, resolution and positioning accuracy are limited. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the detection and positioning capability of the leakage point of the drainage pipeline in the complex urban environment. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a method and device for improving the leakage detection accuracy of a pipeline through a detection device.

[0006] acquire a plurality of first potential differences and a plurality of second potential differences; wherein the potential difference comprises a potential difference value between the received electric signal and the reference electric signal, the first potential difference is acquired before sending the emission instruction to the electric field source assembly, and the second potential difference is acquired after sending the emission instruction to the electric field source assembly;

[0007] According to the plurality of first potential differences and the plurality of second potential differences, a plurality of first and second potential differences are calculated, wherein the plurality of first and second potential differences are used to detect whether the pipeline has a leakage, if the pipeline has a leakage, there is a target first and second potential difference in the plurality of first and second potential differences, and the difference between the target first and second potential difference and the previous first and second potential difference located before the target first and second potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value;

[0008] If the pipeline has a leakage, N times of emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly, a second average normalized value and a plurality of first average normalized values are determined according to the received electric signals acquired by the receiving electrode assembly N times, if there is a target first average normalized value in the plurality of first average normalized values, the target first average normalized value is greater than the target multiple of the second average normalized value, the leakage position of the pipeline is determined according to the abscissa information corresponding to the target first average normalized value, and N is a positive integer.

The first-second potential differences obtained by the first potential differences and the second potential differences obtained by the emitted electric signal and the non-emitted electric signal can greatly reduce the influence of the ground potential distribution on the measurement results. When it is determined that the pipeline has leakage, in order to reduce the display of false values, a second average normalized value and a plurality of first average normalized values are obtained by sending N emission instructions to the electric field source assembly, and the specific leakage position of the pipeline is determined based on the second average normalized value, the plurality of first average normalized values and the position coordinate information of the first average normalized value.

[0029] Figure 1 A method for improving the leakage detection accuracy of a pipeline 5 by detecting a device is shown according to an embodiment of the present application, which is applied to a non-metal pipeline 5. As shown in Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, the detection device includes a main unit (reference numeral 1) and an electric field source component, a receiving electrode component 3, and a reference electrode 4, all electrically connected to the main unit (reference numeral 1). The receiving electrode component 3 is located in the detection area of ​​the pipe 5, and multiple received electrical signals are acquired through the receiving electrode component 3. The reference electrode 4 is located at the detection tail end of the pipe 5, and a reference electrical signal is acquired through the reference electrode 4. The method includes steps S11, S12, and S13. In step S11, multiple first potential differences and multiple second potential differences are acquired. The potential difference includes the potential difference between the received electrical signal and the reference electrical signal. The first potential difference is acquired before sending a transmission command to the electric field source component, and the second potential difference is acquired after sending a transmission command to the electric field source component. In step S12, based on the multiple first potential differences and multiple second potential differences... Multiple first and second potential differences are calculated, and these multiple first and second potential differences are used to detect whether there is a leak in the pipe 5. If there is a leak in the pipe 5, a target first and second potential difference exists among the multiple first and second potential differences. The difference between this target first and second potential difference and the preceding first and second potential difference is equal to or greater than the target difference. In step S13, if there is a leak in the pipe 5, N transmission commands are sent to the electric field source component. A second average normalized value and multiple first average normalized values ​​are determined based on the received electrical signals acquired by the receiving electrode component 3N times. If a target first average normalized value exists among the multiple first average normalized values, and this target first average normalized value is greater than a second average normalized value that is a multiple of the target, the horizontal coordinate information corresponding to the target first average normalized value is determined as the leak location of the pipe 5, where N is a positive integer. In some embodiments, the filling degree of the non-metallic pipe 5 is greater than 0.2. In some embodiments, the electric field source assembly includes a first electric field source probe 2 and a second electric field source probe (not shown). The first and second electric field source probes include dipole sources, and an electric field is formed by emitting electrical signals through the first and second electric field source probes. For a detailed description of the electric field source assembly, please refer to the corresponding embodiments below; it will not be repeated here. The receiving electrode assembly 3 includes multiple receiving electrodes arranged in an array, and the received electrical signals are acquired through the receiving electrode assembly 3. In some embodiments, the receiving electrode assembly 3 is disposed in the detection area of ​​the pipe 5 (e.g., directly above or near the pipe segment to be tested, ensuring that the receiving electrodes are continuously arranged parallel to the direction of the pipe segment to be tested). In some embodiments, the vertical distance D from the receiving electrode to the upper surface of the pipe 5 is ≤ (100 × I(A)) / (R(Ω)), where I(A) includes the emission current of the electric field source probe, and R(Ω) includes the grounding resistance of the emission circuit. In some embodiments, R(Ω) can be measured when no electrical signal is emitted, or it can be calculated by the emission voltage / emission current when an electrical signal is emitted. In some embodiments, as... Figures 2-4As shown, the reference electrode 4 is arranged at the detection tail end of the pipeline 5. In some embodiments, the detection tail end includes, but is not limited to, a position along the direction of the pipeline 5, on the side of the receiving electrode assembly 3, and at a certain distance from the first electric field source probe 2. The farther the distance, the more stable the reference electric signal collected by the reference electrode 4. In this embodiment, the electric field is formed by the electric field source assembly, the receiving electrode assembly 3 collects a plurality of receiving electric signals in the electric field, and the reference electrode 4 collects a stable reference electric signal.

[0030] Specifically, in step S11, a plurality of first potential differences and a plurality of second potential differences are obtained; wherein the potential difference includes the potential difference value between the receiving electric signal and the reference electric signal, the first potential difference is obtained before sending the transmission instruction to the electric field source assembly, and the second potential difference is obtained after sending the transmission instruction to the electric field source assembly. For example, a plurality of first potential differences are obtained by the receiving electrode assembly and the reference electrode when the electric field source assembly does not emit, and a plurality of second potential differences are obtained by the receiving electrode assembly and the reference electrode after the electric field source assembly emits. Specifically, for example, when the electric field source assembly does not emit, the potential difference between each receiving electrode of the receiving electrode assembly and the reference electrode is measured, and the measured potential difference value is the first potential difference (for example, , , … ). Then when the electric field source assembly emits the electric signal, the potential difference between each receiving electrode of the receiving electrode assembly and the reference electrode is measured, and the measured potential difference value is the second potential difference (for example, , , … ). In this embodiment, the first potential difference and the second potential difference are obtained when the electric field source assembly emits and does not emit, thereby reducing the influence of the ground potential distribution. The first potential difference and the second potential difference are used to determine whether the pipeline has a leakage.

[0031] In step S12, a plurality of first-second potential differences are calculated according to the plurality of first potential differences and the plurality of second potential differences, wherein the plurality of first-second potential differences are used to detect whether the pipeline has a leakage, if the pipeline has a leakage, there is a target first-second potential difference in the plurality of first-second potential differences, and the difference between the target first-second potential difference and the previous first-second potential difference located before the target first-second potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value. For example, each first potential difference has a corresponding second potential difference, in other words, the plurality of first potential differences and the plurality of second potential differences are one-to-one corresponding. The first-second potential difference includes the difference between the first potential difference and the second potential difference corresponding to the first potential difference. For example, the plurality of first-second potential differences include , here, includes the first-second potential difference, includes the first potential difference, The first and second potential differences correspond to a third potential difference. In some embodiments, the third potential difference is obtained based on the first and second potential differences, and the first and second potential differences are obtained based on the received electrical signals collected by the receiving electrodes, and the corresponding first and second potential differences are obtained based on the same receiving electrode. Therefore, the first and second potential differences also correspond to the receiving electrode, and the arrayed receiving electrodes exist in a distance from the transmitting source of the electric field source assembly from near to far, and the first and second potential differences corresponding to the receiving electrode include the receiving electrodes located before the target first and second potential differences corresponding to the receiving electrode. In some embodiments, if the pipeline does not have a leakage, the plurality of first and second potential differences are monotonically decreasing away from the electric field source assembly, and therefore, when the pipeline has a leakage, there is a target first and second potential difference, and the difference between the target first and second potential difference and the previous first and second potential difference located before the target first and second potential difference is equal to or greater than the target difference value (for example, the first and second potential differences are not monotonically decreasing, but there is a mutation). In this embodiment, the specific leakage position of the pipeline is detected based on the plurality of first and second potential differences, which greatly improves the leakage detection accuracy.

[0032] In step S13, if the pipeline has a leakage, N emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly, a second average normalized value and a plurality of first average normalized values are determined according to the N times of receiving electric signals obtained by the receiving electrode assembly, if there is a target first average normalized value in the plurality of first average normalized values, the target first average normalized value is greater than the target multiple of the second average normalized value, the leakage position of the pipeline is determined according to the horizontal coordinate information corresponding to the target first average normalized value, and N is a positive integer. In this embodiment, whether the pipeline has a leakage is detected based on the plurality of first potential differences and the plurality of second potential differences, and the specific leakage position of the pipeline is determined based on the second average normalized value and the first average normalized value. In some embodiments, in order to further reduce the existence of false values, after it is determined that the pipeline has a leakage, N emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly, a second average normalized value and a plurality of first average normalized values are calculated according to N times of receiving electric signals, and the specific leakage position of the pipeline is determined based on the second average normalized value and the plurality of first average normalized values. In some embodiments, the first normalized value is obtained by normalizing each receiving electric signal, the first average normalized value is obtained by averaging a plurality of first normalized values of the same position coordinate information, and the second average normalized value is obtained by averaging a plurality of first average normalized values. For specific descriptions of the first average normalized value and the second average normalized value, please refer to the corresponding embodiments below, which will not be repeated here. In some embodiments, each first average value corresponds to position coordinate information, if there is a target first average normalized value, the target first average normalized value is greater than the target multiple (for example, 1.1 times) of the second average normalized value, and then the leakage position of the pipeline is determined according to the horizontal coordinate information (for example, a) corresponding to the target first average normalized value. For example, if the starting point of the to-be-tested pipeline section is taken as the coordinate origin, the position with a distance of a from the starting point of the to-be-tested pipeline section is the leakage position. For another example, if the first electric field source probe is taken as the coordinate origin to establish a coordinate axis, the position with a distance of a from the first electric field source probe is the leakage position. In some embodiments, if the first electric field source probe is linear, the center of the first electric field source probe can be taken as the coordinate origin.

[0033] In some embodiments, the electric field source assembly includes a first electric field source probe 2 and a second electric field source probe (not shown), wherein the first electric field source probe 2 is arranged inside the liquid 6 in the pipeline 5, and the second electric field source probe is arranged outside the pipeline 5, and a plurality of first potential differences and a plurality of second potential differences are obtained, including: before sending a transmission instruction to the electric field source assembly, a plurality of first potential differences are obtained by the reference electrode 4 and the plurality of receiving electrodes; and sending a transmission instruction to the electric field source assembly, a plurality of second potential differences are obtained by the reference electrode 4 and the plurality of receiving electrodes. In some embodiments, the first electric field source probe 2 and the second electric field source probe include but are not limited to a dipole source. In some embodiments, there is a certain flow of liquid 6 (for example, water) in the pipeline 5 to support the formation of an electric field, and the first electric field source probe 2 is arranged inside the liquid 6 in the pipeline 5 (for example, the bottom of the pipeline 5 or inside the pipeline 5). In some embodiments, the second electric field source probe is arranged outside the pipeline and not arranged along the pipeline. The electric field excitation source signal is mainly a direct current signal, and the first electric field source probe 2 can be a point-like electric emission source (a good conductive metal block, such as Figure 2 shown) or a linear electric emission source (a good conductive metal body, such as Figure 4 shown), and the arrangement of the receiving electrode assembly 3 corresponding to the point-like electric emission source and the linear electric emission source is different. Specifically, referring to Figure 2 when the first electric field source probe 2 is a point-like electric emission source, the point-like electric emission source is placed in the water part of the drain pipe (for example, the pipeline 5) through the inspection port. In some embodiments, the receiving electrode and the reference electrode include but are not limited to a non-polarization electrode. Referring to Figure 3 , a single or multiple measuring lines (preferably an odd number of measuring lines) are arranged above the drain pipe along the direction of the pipeline 5, and a plurality of receiving electrodes (for example, non-polarization electrodes) are arranged on each measuring line. In some embodiments, the first electric field source probe 2 can be moved according to the site conditions, and multiple measurements are performed (as shown in Figure 2 ). However, the moving range of the first electric field source probe 2 is usually not more than 3 times the length of the observation electrode measuring line (for example, the length of the receiving electrode assembly 3 along the direction of the pipeline 5), and the measuring line arrangement range is not more than 1 / 6 of the moving range of the first electric field source probe 2 (as shown in FIG. 2). Referring to Figure 4When the first electric field source probe 2 is a linear electric emission source, the linear electric emission source is placed in the water part of the drain pipe through the inspection port, and the length extends to the other inspection port. A single measuring line or multiple measuring lines (preferably an odd number of measuring lines) are arranged along the direction of the pipeline 5 above the drain pipe. A non-polarized electrode (for example, a receiving electrode) is arranged on the measuring line, and the distance between the electrodes (for example, receiving electrodes) is less than 1 / 2 of the target resolution. The potential value (for example, the received electric signal) at this position is measured. The length of the measuring line is 1 / 3 of the length of the emission source and is located above the middle of the emission source (as shown in FIG. 3). Similar to the point-shaped electric emission source, the arrangement range of the measuring line does not exceed 1 / 6 of the length of the emission source. In this embodiment, due to the fixed anomaly of the non-metal pipeline 5, the first electric field source probe 2 is arranged inside the liquid 6 in the pipeline 5. The electric field formed by the emission of the electric signal from the liquid 6 in the pipeline 5 can be distinguished from the electric field formed on the ground, so that the measurement result is more accurate. Further, in this embodiment, in order to reduce the influence of the ground electric signal, first, when the electric field source assembly does not emit, the potential difference between each receiving electrode of the receiving electrode assembly 3 and the reference electrode 4 is measured. The measured potential difference value is the first potential difference (for example, , , … ) (for example, affected by the urban background electric signal, when the electric field source assembly does not emit the electric signal and forms the electric field of the electric field source assembly, the receiving electrode and the reference electrode can also collect the electric signal). Then, when the electric field source assembly emits the electric signal, the potential difference between each receiving electrode of the receiving electrode assembly and the reference electrode is measured. The measured potential difference value is the second potential difference (for example, , , … ). In this embodiment, the first potential difference and the second potential difference obtained by the emission and non-emission of the electric field source assembly are used to judge whether the pipeline has leakage and loss.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first potential differences are obtained by the reference electrode and the plurality of receiving electrodes before the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source probe; the second potential differences are obtained by the reference electrode and the plurality of receiving electrodes after the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source probe, including: before the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source assembly, a plurality of first receiving electrical signals are collected by the plurality of receiving electrodes, and a first reference electrical signal is collected by the reference electrode; for each first receiving electrical signal, a potential difference value between the first receiving electrical signal and the first reference electrical signal is calculated, and the potential difference value is taken as a first potential difference to obtain a plurality of first potential differences; the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source assembly, an electrical signal is emitted by the electric field source assembly to form an electric field, a plurality of second receiving electrical signals are collected by the plurality of receiving electrodes, and a plurality of second reference electrical signals are collected by the reference electrode; for each second receiving electrical signal, a potential difference value between the second receiving electrical signal and the second reference electrical signal is calculated, and the potential difference value is taken as a second potential difference to obtain a plurality of second potential differences. For example, before the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source assembly, a plurality of first receiving electrical signals are collected by the plurality of receiving electrodes of the receiving electrode assembly, and a first reference electrical signal is collected by the reference electrode; each first receiving electrical signal is subtracted from the first reference electrical signal to obtain a plurality of first potential differences (for example, , , … ). Then, after the emission instruction is sent to the electric field source assembly, a plurality of second receiving electrical signals are collected by the plurality of receiving electrodes of the receiving electrode assembly, and a second reference electrical signal is collected by the reference electrode; each second receiving electrical signal is subtracted from the second reference electrical signal to obtain a plurality of second potential differences (for example, , , … ). In this embodiment, not only the second potential differences of the electrical signals emitted by the electric field source probe are measured, but also the first potential differences of the electric field source probe when no electrical signal occurs are measured, so that the influence of the ground potential distribution is reduced.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first-second potential difference is calculated according to the plurality of first potential differences and the plurality of second potential differences, including: for each first potential difference, determining the second potential difference corresponding to the first potential difference according to the position coordinate information of the first potential difference, to obtain a plurality of groups of corresponding first potential differences and second potential differences, wherein the position coordinate information of the first potential difference is the same as that of the second potential difference corresponding to the first potential difference; for each group of corresponding first potential differences and second potential differences, taking the potential difference value between the first potential difference and the second potential difference as the first-second potential difference, to obtain a plurality of first-second potential differences; and detecting whether the pipeline has a leakage according to the plurality of first-second potential differences, wherein if the pipeline has a leakage, there is a target first-second potential difference in the plurality of first-second potential differences, and the difference between the target first-second potential difference and a previous first-second potential difference located before the target first-second potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value. For example, the coordinate can be established with the projection of the starting point of the pipeline segment to be detected to the ground position O as the origin coordinate, the parallel pipeline direction as the X axis, the positive direction of the pipeline detection endpoint direction as the X axis, and the vertical pipeline direction as the Y axis. Each receiving electrode corresponds to position coordinate information. Of course, those skilled in the art can understand that the above coordinate establishment method is only an example, and other existing or future coordinate establishment methods that can be applicable to the present application are also within the protection scope of the present application and are included herein by reference. In some embodiments, the position coordinate information includes horizontal coordinate information and vertical coordinate information. In some embodiments, the first potential difference is calculated based on the first receiving electric signal, and therefore the position coordinate information of the receiving electrode corresponding to the first receiving electric signal is the position coordinate information of the corresponding first potential difference. For example, each first receiving electric signal corresponds to the position coordinate information of the receiving electrode that collects and acquires the first receiving electric signal, and the position coordinate information of the first potential difference obtained based on the first receiving electric signal is the position coordinate information of the first receiving electric signal. Similarly, the second potential difference is obtained based on the second receiving electric signal, and therefore the position coordinate information of the second potential difference obtained based on the second receiving electric signal is the position coordinate information of the second receiving electric signal. The first potential difference is obtained when the electric field source probe is not emitting, and the second potential difference is obtained when the electric field source probe is emitting, and therefore there are first potential differences and second potential differences with the same position coordinate information. In calculating the plurality of first-second potential differences, the system can determine the second potential difference corresponding to the first potential difference according to the position coordinate information of the first potential difference, to obtain a plurality of groups of corresponding first potential differences and second potential differences; further, for each group of corresponding first potential differences and second potential differences, taking the potential difference value between the first potential difference and the second potential difference as the first-second potential difference, to obtain a plurality of first-second potential differences. In other words, the first potential difference and the second potential difference in the same group are obtained based on the same receiving electrode.Furthermore, based on multiple first and second potential differences, the system detects whether there is a leak in the pipeline. If a leak exists, a target first and second potential difference exists among the multiple first and second potential differences. The difference between this target first and second potential difference and the preceding first and second potential difference is equal to or greater than the target difference. In some embodiments, the receiving electrode corresponding to the preceding first and second potential difference includes the receiving electrode located before the receiving electrode corresponding to the target first and second potential difference. In this embodiment, the preceding first and second potential difference can be understood as including the preceding first and second potential differences whose vertical axis is the same as the target first and second potential difference, and whose horizontal axis is before the target first and second potential difference.

[0036] In some embodiments, detecting whether a pipeline has a leak based on multiple first and second potential differences includes: dividing the multiple first and second potential differences into multiple potential difference sets according to the position coordinate information of each first and second potential difference, wherein each potential difference set includes multiple first and second potential differences arranged in sequence, and the ordinate information of the multiple first and second potential differences in the same potential difference set is the same; for each potential difference set, if there is a target first and second potential difference in the potential difference set, and the difference between the target first and second potential difference and the preceding first and second potential difference is equal to or greater than the target difference, it is determined that there is a leak in the pipeline, wherein the preceding first and second potential difference includes the abscissa information of the preceding first and second potential difference being less than the target first and second potential difference. For example, multiple first and second potential differences with the same ordinate information are divided into a potential difference set according to the position coordinate information of multiple first and second potential differences. In some embodiments, the multiple first and second potential differences in each potential difference set are arranged in ascending order of abscissa information (for example, when the starting point of the pipeline to be tested is projected onto the ground as the coordinate origin), for example, the potential difference set [ , , , , ],in, , , , , The horizontal coordinate information is arranged sequentially from smallest to largest. In other embodiments, the multiple first and second potential differences in each potential difference set are arranged in ascending order of size, with the first and second potential difference closest to the coordinate origin as the center (e.g., when the first electric field source probe is used as the coordinate origin). For example, the potential difference set [ , , , , ],in, The position coordinates are closest to the origin (for example, using the x-coordinate information to determine the position). the position coordinate information of the first two potential difference is closest to the coordinate origin, , the abscissa information of the first two potential difference increases in turn, , the abscissa information of the first two potential difference increases in turn. In the embodiment, whether the pipeline has a leakage can be detected based on the position coordinate information of the first two potential difference. For example, for each set of potential difference, if there is a target first two potential difference in the set of potential difference, the difference between the target first two potential difference and a previous first two potential difference located before the target first two potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value, and the abscissa information of the previous first two potential difference is less than that of the target first two potential difference, it is determined that the pipeline has a leakage. For example, in the set of potential difference [ , , , , ], , , , , the abscissa information of the first two potential difference is arranged in ascending order from small to large, if the pipeline does not have a leakage, the farther away from the first electric field source probe, , , , , should be strictly monotonically decreasing; if , , , , there is a target first two potential difference in the set of potential difference , the difference between the target first two potential difference and a previous first two potential difference located before the target first two potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value, it is determined that the pipeline has a leakage. For another example, in the set of potential difference [ , , , , ], as the center, , the abscissa information of the first two potential difference increases in turn, , the abscissa information of the first two potential difference increases in turn, if the pipeline does not have a leakage, the farther away from the first electric field source probe, , should be strictly monotonically decreasing, , should be strictly monotonically decreasing; if there is a target first two potential difference , the difference between the target first two potential difference and a previous first two potential difference The difference between the first potential difference and the second potential difference located before the first potential difference is equal to or greater than a target difference value, and it is determined that the pipeline has a leakage.

[0037] In some embodiments, if the pipeline has a leakage, N emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly, and the second average normalization value and the plurality of first average normalization values are determined based on the received electric signals obtained by the plurality of receiving electrodes N times. If the pipeline has a leakage, N emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly, and the plurality of received electric signals are obtained by the plurality of receiving electrodes. For each obtained plurality of received electric signals, the plurality of received electric signals are normalized based on the position coordinate information of the plurality of received electric signals to obtain a first normalization value corresponding to each position coordinate information, thereby obtaining N first normalization values corresponding to each position coordinate information. The average value of N first normalization values corresponding to each position coordinate information is calculated to obtain a first average normalization value corresponding to the position coordinate information. The average value of all first average normalization values is calculated, and the average value is taken as a second average normalization value. If there is a target first average normalization value in the plurality of first average normalization values, the target first average normalization value is greater than the target multiple of the second average normalization value, and the horizontal coordinate information corresponding to the target first average normalization value is determined as the leakage position of the pipeline. In some embodiments, if it is determined that the pipeline has a leakage, N emission instructions are sent to the electric field source assembly of the electric field source assembly, and the plurality of received electric signals obtained by the receiving electrode assembly each time are recorded. In some embodiments, the received electric signals corresponding to each position coordinate information of the same horizontal coordinate information are first normalized to obtain the first normalization value corresponding to each position coordinate information corresponding to the horizontal coordinate information (for example, , where i includes horizontal coordinate information, j includes vertical coordinate information, and k includes the kth emission); then the N first normalization values corresponding to each position coordinate information are averaged to obtain the first average normalization value corresponding to the position coordinate information (for example, ). The above normalization processing is performed on the received electric signals corresponding to each position coordinate information to obtain the first average normalization value corresponding to each position coordinate information, that is, the plurality of first average normalization values are obtained. The plurality of first average normalization values are then averaged to obtain the second average normalization value (for example, ). If there is a target first average normalization value (for example, ) in the plurality of first average normalization values, the target first average normalization value is greater than the target multiple of the second average normalization value (for example, , for example, the target multiple is 1.1), and the target first average normalization value (for example, ​The corresponding abscissa information (for example, a) determines the leakage position of the pipeline (for example, the leakage position is a meter away from the coordinate origin (for example, the starting point of the pipeline to be measured or the first electric field source probe)).

[0038] In some embodiments, for each acquired plurality of received electrical signals, the plurality of received electrical signals is normalized according to the position coordinate information of the plurality of received electrical signals to obtain a plurality of first normalized values corresponding to each position coordinate information, thereby obtaining N first normalized values corresponding to each position coordinate information, including: for each acquired plurality of received electrical signals, the plurality of received electrical signals is divided into a plurality of electrical signal sets according to the position coordinate information of the plurality of received electrical signals, wherein the abscissa information of the plurality of received electrical signals in each electrical signal set is the same; for each electrical signal set, the plurality of received electrical signals in the electrical signal set is normalized to obtain a first normalized value corresponding to a plurality of different abscissa information. For example, received electrical signals with the same abscissa information are divided into the same electrical signal set, and the plurality of received electrical signals in each electrical signal set is normalized. In some embodiments, the normalization of the plurality of received electrical signals includes: {v}_{ijk}=\frac {{u}_{ijk}} {min[{u}_{i1k},{u}_{i2k},{u}_{i3k}...{u}_{iMk}]} Here, k includes the number of transmissions, for example, the kth transmission; i includes the abscissa information; j includes the ordinate information; includes the measurement result of the received electrical signal located at (i, j) at the kth transmission The normalized result (for example, the first normalized value) of includes the measurement result of the received electrical signal located at (i, j) at the kth transmission; min[{u}_{i1k},{u}_{i2k},{u}_{i3k}...{u}_{iMk}] includes the minimum value of the received electrical signal with the same abscissa information i. In this embodiment, for each acquired plurality of received electrical signals, data is divided first, and received electrical signals with the same abscissa information are divided into the same electrical signal set. Then, the received electrical signals in each electrical signal set are normalized to obtain a plurality of first normalized values corresponding to each abscissa information.

[0039] In some embodiments, the method further comprises a step S14 (not shown) before the step of determining the second average normalized value and the plurality of first average normalized values from the received electrical signals acquired N times according to the plurality of receiving electrodes, in which step S14, target received electrical signals are screened according to coordinate information of the received electrical signals, so as to eliminate the target received electrical signals, wherein the position coordinate information of the target received electrical signals is within a target area, and the target area comprises a circle with the first electric field source probe as the center and with a target radius as the radius, and the target radius is obtained by the following calculation method: Herein, d comprises the target radius, and D comprises the vertical distance from the receiving electrode to the upper surface of the pipeline, Herein, I(A) comprises the emission current of the electric field source probe, and R(Ω) comprises the grounding resistance of the emission loop. In some embodiments, it is also necessary to eliminate data (for example, the target received electrical signals) that can be affected by the near-field effect. In some embodiments, the circle of the target area is determined with the position coordinate information of the location where the first electric field source probe is located as the center and with the target radius d as the radius. The received electrical signals corresponding to the position coordinate information covered by the target area are determined as the target received electrical signals. In some embodiments, eliminating the target received electrical signals comprises that the target received electrical signals do not participate in the determination process of the specific leakage position, in other words, the target received electrical signals do not participate in the normalization processing step of the received electrical signals.
