[0020] Bridge deflection monitoring is a key indicator for assessing bridge safety. Traditional displacement deflection measurement equipment is mostly contact-based, which relies on manual operation to a certain extent and is costly, and has certain limitations in actual engineering applications. Unlike traditional contact measurement methods, millimeter-wave radar does not require the installation of sensors on the bridge deck, reducing installation difficulty and cost, while avoiding the potential impact of sensor installation on the bridge structure. Existing millimeter-wave radar technologies in bridge deflection monitoring have demonstrated significant advantages such as high precision, non-contact, all-weather, multi-target, and long-distance.

[0021] Install the millimeter-wave radar at a suitable location near the bridge to ensure that all monitoring points are covered. Monitoring points are generally deployed angular reflection targets or some stable feature points on the bridge surface. At present, when deploying radar, it is necessary to manually configure the information of these monitoring points in advance, and then obtain the data of the monitoring points to complete the long-term monitoring of the bridge deflection.

[0022] Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide a bridge deflection monitoring method, system, electronic device and storage medium, which can solve the cumbersome technical problem in the prior art that when monitoring bridge deflection, the monitoring point information needs to be manually configured in advance during the radar deployment phase.

[0023] Figure 1The bridge deflection monitoring method provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes: S101, obtaining each frame of point cloud data output by the millimeter wave radar, and recording the first frame of point cloud data after the millimeter wave radar is installed as matching record data; S102, continuously updating the current frame point cloud data of a predetermined number of frames, and matching the point cloud data of the predetermined number of frames with the matching record data to generate new matching record data; S103, sorting the point cloud in the new matching record data in descending order according to the signal-to-noise ratio to obtain a monitoring point sequence; S104, selecting a predetermined number of points with the highest signal-to-noise ratio in the monitoring point sequence as monitoring points; S105. Monitor the deflection of the bridge using the selected monitoring points.

[0024] In this embodiment, the bridge deflection monitoring method is applied when deploying a bridge radar. After the radar is installed, the point cloud data is output by the signal processing module of the millimeter wave radar, which includes information such as range, azimuth, signal-to-noise ratio snr and phase. The information of all point clouds in the initial first frame is recorded as the matching record data his_detect_info.

[0025] In step S104, the preset number is pre-set and can be any positive integer.

[0026] Therefore, the bridge deflection monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application avoids the cumbersome process of manually configuring monitoring points. It only needs to perform initialization data collection and multi-frame data matching processing of the monitoring points for a certain period of time after the radar is deployed. According to the matching results, the monitoring points that best reflect the changes in the bridge deflection are automatically selected, and the slight deformation of these points is monitored for a long time to monitor the changes in the bridge deflection. This makes it easier to monitor the changes in the bridge deflection.

[0027] In some embodiments, the step of continuously updating the current frame point cloud data of a predetermined number of frames, and matching the point cloud data of the predetermined number of frames with the matching record data to generate new matching record data includes: traversing the points in the current frame point cloud data, and filtering the points in the current frame point cloud data whose signal-to-noise ratio is less than a first preset threshold value to update the current frame point cloud data; matching the filtered points in the current frame point cloud data with the points in the matching record data one by one, and obtaining new matching record data after the match is successful.

[0028] In this embodiment, the point cloud data cur_detect_info of the current frame is updated, and the point cloud data of the current frame is traversed. First, the value of the signal-to-noise ratio less than the threshold SNR_THR is filtered, and then the points in the matching record his_detect_info are matched one by one. The distance and azimuth of each point need to meet the matching conditions at the same time for the match to be successful.

[0029] In some embodiments, the step of matching the filtered points in the current frame point cloud data with the points in the matching record data one by one includes: judging whether the absolute value of the distance difference between the filtered points in the current frame point cloud data and the points in the matching record data is less than a preset distance difference value, and whether the absolute value of the azimuth difference between the two is less than the preset azimuth difference value; if the absolute value of the distance difference between the two is less than the preset distance difference value, and the absolute value of the azimuth difference between the two is less than the preset azimuth difference value, the match is successful and a matching result is obtained; judging whether the traversal of the points in the current frame point cloud data is completed, if completed, the points in the current frame point cloud data matched in two consecutive frames are used as new matching record data.

[0030] In some embodiments, the matching process of the point cloud data is repeated, and after a certain number of frames of continuous matching are performed, a matching record his_detect_info is output.

[0031] To summarize, the process of generating new matching records can be seen in Figure 2 , it is necessary to first traverse the point point1 in the current frame cur_detect_info, then filter the points whose signal-to-noise ratio snr is less than the threshold SNR_THR, and then traverse the point point2 in the matching record his_detect_info to determine whether the two points point1 and point2 meet the preset conditions, the preset conditions being whether the absolute value of the distance difference between the two is less than the preset value of the distance difference, and whether the absolute value of the azimuth difference between the two is less than the preset value of the azimuth difference in the above embodiment; if not, traverse the next point in the matching record, and return to the step of traversing the point point2 in the matching record his_detect_info, if so, the match is successful, and the point point1 is recorded in the matching result result_detect_info, and it is determined whether the points in the current frame are traversed, if not, traverse the next point in the current frame, and return to the step of traversing the point point1 in the current frame cur_detect_info, if so, the matching results result_detect_info of two consecutive frames are used as new matching record data his_detect_info.

[0032] In some embodiments, the step of monitoring the deflection of the bridge using the selected monitoring points includes: obtaining the point cloud data of the current frame of the radar and recording the phase information of the point cloud data of the current frame; recording the phase information of multiple consecutive frames of point cloud data, and performing phase unwrapping processing to obtain the phase after unwrapping; calculating the radial displacement between two adjacent frames of point cloud data through the phase after unwrapping, and calculating the deflection based on the change in the radial displacement; monitoring the deflection of the bridge within a preset time to obtain the change in the deflection of the bridge.

[0033] When performing deflection monitoring, the installation diagram of the bridge radar is as follows: Figure 2 There are some stable points on the bottom of the bridge, but there are also many clutter points. This application takes two stable monitoring points as an example, namely Figure 3 Monitoring point 1 and monitoring point 2 in .

[0034] After selecting a stable monitoring point, taking monitoring point 1 as an example, in the process of long-term monitoring of the deflection of the point, the point cloud data of the current frame of the radar is obtained, and the steps of recording the phase information of the point cloud data of the current frame include: traversing the current point cloud data, first filtering the points with a signal-to-noise ratio lower than SNR_THR, and then matching the point cloud of the current frame with monitoring point 1 one by one. The matching method is consistent with the matching method when selecting the monitoring point mentioned above, that is, judging whether the absolute value of the distance difference between the filtered points in the current frame point cloud data and the points in the matching recorded data is less than the preset distance difference value, and whether the absolute value of the azimuth difference between the two is less than the preset azimuth difference value; if the absolute value of the distance difference between the two is less than the preset distance difference value, and the absolute value of the azimuth difference between the two is less than the preset azimuth difference value, the match is successful. If the match is successful, the phase information of the current frame is recorded.

[0035] In some embodiments, when the phase after unwrapping is obtained, the step of monitoring the bridge deflection using the selected monitoring points also includes: determining whether the absolute value of the phase difference between two adjacent frames after unwrapping is greater than a second preset threshold value; if so, the point cloud data of adjacent frames are in chronological order, and the phase of the second frame undergoes an abnormal jump, the phase value of the second frame is discarded, and the phase value of the first frame of the point cloud data of the adjacent frames is used as the phase value of the second frame of the point cloud data.

[0036] In this embodiment, the phase of the current frame after unwrapping is , the phase after unwrapping of the previous frame is , if the absolute value of the difference between the two is greater than the threshold value DIFF_THR, that is )>DIFF_THR; It is considered that the phase of the frame has an abnormal jump, so the current value is discarded and the phase of the previous frame is used as the phase of the current frame.

[0037] In some embodiments, the calculation formula for the radial displacement change is: ; Among them, x1 is the radial displacement change, is the wavelength of the radar signal electromagnetic wave, , , They are the phases of the point cloud data of two adjacent frames after unwrapping; The calculation formula of the deflection is: ; Where d1 is the deflection, is the radial displacement from the monitoring point to the radar, The height at which the radar reaches the bottom of the bridge.

[0038] In this embodiment, the microwave interferometry technique can be used to estimate the slight changes in the position of the monitoring point. Figure 4 This is the deflection curve of the monitoring point within a certain period of time. A large deflection change occurred at the preset time of 60s. The algorithm can then be used to detect deflection changes beyond the normal range and discover potential safety issues in a timely manner.

[0039] Therefore, the bridge deflection monitoring method provided in this embodiment, when deploying a bridge radar, is based on the point cloud information transmitted by the radar signal processing module, and through multi-frame matching processing of the collected point cloud data, some stable monitoring points on the bridge surface or the deployed corners are identified, and the long-term continuous phase data of these monitoring points are obtained. Phase unwrapping processing is performed, and slight changes in the position of the monitoring points can be inferred through microwave interferometry measurement technology, and the deflection information of the monitoring points can be calculated in combination with the radar installation information.
