[0038] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0039] In the present invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. "Including" and "comprising" mentioned throughout the specification and claims are open-ended terms and should be interpreted as "including but not limited to".

[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 The present invention provides an intelligent control system for highway tunnel lighting, characterized in that the intelligent control system for highway tunnel lighting includes a vehicle detection unit, a data acquisition unit, a main control module, a lighting intelligent control module, a tunnel lamp control unit, lighting lamps and an emergency control unit.

[0041] The vehicle detection unit includes a tunnel outside vehicle detection module installed at a position several hundred meters in front of the tunnel, and the tunnel outside vehicle detection module is used to detect whether there is a vehicle about to enter the tunnel. The vehicle detection unit also includes a tunnel entrance section vehicle detection module, a tunnel transition section vehicle detection module, a tunnel middle section vehicle detection module and a tunnel exit section vehicle detection module installed in each section of the tunnel, respectively, and these modules are used to detect whether there is a vehicle in each section of the tunnel.

[0042] Optionally, each detection module in the vehicle detection unit is a vehicle detection device such as a surveillance camera, and is evenly distributed near the outside of the tunnel and in each section inside the tunnel, and can accurately and in real time detect whether there are vehicles near and inside the tunnel.

[0043] The data acquisition unit includes a vehicle flow detection module, a vehicle speed detection module and an outside-tunnel brightness detection module installed near the tunnel entrance. These modules are used to collect vehicle flow, vehicle speed and outside-tunnel brightness information in real time. The distance of the installation position from the tunnel entrance is determined by the driving speed.

[0044] The main control module is used to receive the information detected by the vehicle detection unit and the data acquisition unit, and input it into the lighting intelligent control module connected thereto for processing and analysis, and then issue control commands to the tunnel lighting control unit; at the same time, the fault information of the vehicle detection unit, the data acquisition unit and the lighting fixture is sent to the emergency control unit connected thereto.

[0045] The tunnel lamp control unit includes a tunnel entrance section lamp brightness control module, a tunnel transition section lamp brightness control module, a tunnel middle section lamp brightness control module and a tunnel exit section lamp brightness control module. According to the tunnel lamp brightness control command issued by the lighting intelligent control module, the brightness of each segment lighting fixture of the tunnel is controlled respectively.

[0046] The emergency control unit includes a first emergency module, a second emergency module and a third emergency module. Among them, when any vehicle detection module in the vehicle detection unit fails and cannot be used, the first emergency module uses the vehicle flow, vehicle speed and brightness outside the tunnel collected by the data acquisition unit as input sources, uses the built-in intelligent adjustment model of lighting brightness in the lighting intelligent control module to analyze and obtain the appropriate lighting brightness value of each section of the tunnel, and dynamically adjusts the brightness of the lighting fixtures in each section of the tunnel according to a preset cycle. When any detection module in the data acquisition unit fails and cannot be used, the second emergency module divides a day into four stages of early morning, daytime, dusk and night according to the traffic volume and light intensity, and adjusts the brightness of the tunnel lighting fixtures according to the four stages according to the preset control command. The third emergency module promptly activates the backup lighting equipment when the lighting fixture fails and cannot be used. When there are two or more emergency modules responding at the same time, the execution priority is: the third emergency module is greater than the second emergency module and greater than the first emergency module.

[0047] The present invention also provides a method for intelligently controlling highway tunnel lighting, comprising the following steps:

[0048] Step 1: Use the vehicle detection unit to detect the vehicle information inside and outside the tunnel; use the vehicle flow detection module, the vehicle speed detection module and the brightness detection module outside the tunnel to detect the vehicle flow, vehicle speed and brightness information outside the tunnel; based on the above information, execute step 2.

[0049] Step 2: Determine whether the vehicle detection module outside the tunnel detects that a vehicle is about to enter the tunnel. If not, execute step 3; if yes, execute step 5.

[0050] Step 3: Determine whether a vehicle is detected in the tunnel. If not, execute step 4; if yes, execute step 5.

[0051] Step 4: Determine whether a vehicle is detected inside or outside the tunnel within the second preset time T2. If not, issue a control command to turn on the tunnel lighting fixtures in a low-energy operation state; if yes, execute step 5.

[0052] Step 5: Determine whether the brightness of the lighting fixtures in each section of the tunnel has been adjusted within the first preset time T1. If not, the collected traffic flow, vehicle speed, and brightness outside the tunnel are analyzed through the lighting brightness intelligent adjustment model built into the lighting intelligent control module to obtain the appropriate lighting brightness value for each section of the tunnel, and execute step 6; if so, keep the current tunnel lighting fixture brightness adjustment state unchanged.

[0053] Step 6: Determine whether the tunnel lighting fixture brightness control state obtained by analyzing the built-in lighting brightness intelligent adjustment model of the lighting intelligent control module in step 5 is the same as the current lighting fixture brightness control state. If not, use the tunnel lighting fixture control unit to adjust the brightness of each segmented lighting fixture in the tunnel; if so, keep the current lighting fixture brightness control state unchanged.

[0054] In a specific implementation, the first preset time T1 and the second preset time T2 may be in the range of 10 minutes to 15 minutes, so as to avoid frequent adjustment of the brightness of the lighting fixture and extend the service life of the lighting fixture.

[0055] In another specific implementation, the values ​​of the first preset time T1 and the second preset time T2 may also be determined by the following method:

[0056] The first preset time T1 can be determined according to the change intensity of the traffic volume, vehicle speed and brightness outside the tunnel. If the change intensity of these three factors is greater, it means that the brightness of the tunnel lighting fixtures needs to be adjusted more frequently to adapt to such changes, and the first preset time T1 is shorter. Conversely, the first preset time T1 is longer. Therefore, the calculation formula of the first preset time T1 is as follows:

[0057] T1=T 10 +f(θ1)*α1

[0058] Among them, T 10 is the first preset time as the basis, α1 is the variable range, θ1 is the comprehensive change intensity; for reference, T 10 The possible value is 10min, and the possible value of α1 is 5min.

[0059] In order to convert the comprehensive change intensity of each factor into the range of 0-1, a variant of the hyperbolic tangent function, namely f(θ), is introduced. As θ increases, f(θ) gradually decreases. The formula is as follows:

[0060]

[0061] The comprehensive change intensity θ1 is to integrate the change intensity of the three factors, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0062] θ1=w 11 *θ 11 +w 12 *θ 12 +w 13 *θ 13

[0063] Among them, θ 11 ,θ 12 and θ 13 are the change intensity of traffic volume, vehicle speed and brightness outside the tunnel respectively; w11 、w 12 and w 13 are the weight coefficients of traffic volume, vehicle speed and brightness outside the cave respectively.

[0064] The calculation formula for the change intensity of each factor is as follows:

[0065]

[0066] Among them, θ x is θ 11 ,θ 12 or θ 13 ,θ new is the latest detected value of the corresponding factor, θ old is the last detected value of the corresponding factor x, and Δt is the detection time interval between two detections.

[0067] The second preset time T2 can be determined based on factors such as weather and time period. The weather can be divided into sunny, rainy, cloudy, snowy and foggy days, and the time period can be divided into peak hours and non-peak hours. When the weather is sunny and the time period is peak hours, the traffic volume is relatively large, and the vehicle detection time range can be lengthened, that is, the longer the second preset time T2 is, the less unnecessary frequent adjustment of the tunnel lighting fixtures is, and vice versa, the shorter the second preset time T2 is. Therefore, the calculation formula of the second preset time T2 is as follows:

[0068] T2=T 20 *w 21 *w 22

[0069] Among them, T 20 The second preset time is the basic time, w 21 and w 22 are the weight coefficients of weather and time period respectively; for reference, T 20 The possible values ​​are 10min, w 21 and w 22 The value can be determined based on actual conditions, with higher weight coefficients being assigned to weather and time periods with relatively heavy traffic, and all of them should be greater than or equal to 1.

[0070] In summary, some existing tunnel lighting control systems use a control method that turns on the lights when the vehicle enters and turns off the lights when the vehicle leaves. In the case of high traffic volume, this will lead to frequent control of lighting fixtures, affecting the service life and stability of lighting fixtures. In this embodiment, when it is necessary to adjust the brightness of the lighting fixture, it is first determined whether the adjustment has been made within the preset time T1. If it has been made, the current brightness is kept unchanged; if it has not been made, a new adjustment is made, which is different from the "light up when the vehicle comes" in the prior art; at the same time, when the vehicle leaves the tunnel, it has to wait for a period of time T2 before entering the low-energy operation state, which is different from the "turn off when the vehicle leaves" in the prior art, thereby reducing the number of adjustments to the lighting fixtures in the tunnel and extending the service life of the lighting fixtures.

[0071] In addition, the prior art also uses time control and hierarchical control, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual traffic conditions and changes in ambient light, resulting in energy waste and poor lighting effects. However, this application uses traffic-based adjustment as a normalized adjustment method, and provides two traffic condition detection methods: a vehicle detection unit and a data acquisition unit, in conjunction with an out-of-tunnel brightness detection module and an emergency module, which fully ensures the adaptability of the lamp brightness control to traffic conditions and changes in ambient light, and is more suitable for actual road conditions.

[0072] Furthermore, the lighting brightness intelligent adjustment model built into the lighting intelligent control module is a pre-trained convolutional neural network-long short-term memory network and attention mechanism combined model (CNN-LSTM-Attention), such as Figure 3 As shown, including:

[0073] Input layer, including time series of traffic flow data, vehicle speed data and brightness data outside the cave;

[0074] CNN layer, extracts feature components by performing layer-by-layer convolution and pooling operations on the data sequence;

[0075] LSTM layer, which captures temporal correlation and long-term dependencies in the data sequence, and sets a Dropout layer to prevent overfitting;

[0076] Attention layer, which introduces the attention mechanism to assign different attention weights to the output of the LSTM layer for weighted summation;

[0077] The output layer outputs the lighting brightness of each segment in the tunnel through a fully connected layer.

[0078] It should be noted that the convolution operation in the CNN layer is to extract features, and the pooling operation is to reduce the feature dimension and prevent overfitting.

[0079] It should be noted that the LSTM layer receives the output from the CNN layer, including a cell state, forget gate, input gate and output gate, and the processing process is as follows:

[0080] f t =σ(W f ·[h t-1 ,x t ]+b f )

[0081] i t =σ(W i ·[h t-1 ,x t ]+b i )

[0082]

[0083] o t =σ(W o ·[h t-1 ,x t ]+b o )

[0084] h t =o t tanh(C t )

[0085] Among them, f t represents the forget gate, W f and b f are the weight and bias coefficient of the forget gate respectively, i t represents the input gate, W i and b i are the weight and bias coefficient of the input gate, W c and b c are temporary unit weights and bias coefficients, respectively, C t and are the cell states and their candidate values ​​at time t, o t represents the output gate, h t is the output at time t, x t is the input at time t, σ is the sigmoid activation function, and tanh is the hyperbolic tangent activation function

[0086] It should be noted that the attention weight calculation process in the Attention layer is as follows:

[0087] u t =tanh(W e *h t +b e )

[0088]

[0089] s t =∑α t *h t

[0090] Where t is the length of the time series, u t is the key-value vector of the attention layer, W e and b e h t The weight parameter matrix and bias vector, h t is the feature vector output by the LSTM layer, b e is the bias vector, α t is the generated attention weight, tanh is the activation function, s t is the result of weighted summation.

[0091] It should be noted that the formula for calculating the output value in the output layer is as follows:

[0092] y t =σ(W j s t +b j )

[0093] Among them, y t is the output at time t, W j and b j are weight coefficient and bias coefficient respectively.

[0094] Furthermore, the training steps of the lighting brightness intelligent adjustment model built into the lighting intelligent control module include:

[0095] Step 1: Collect time series of traffic flow data, vehicle speed data and brightness data outside the tunnel, standardize them, and divide them into training set and validation set.

[0096] Step 2: Initialize the model parameters and use the Adam algorithm to iteratively train the CNN-LSTM-Attention model. The loss function uses cross entropy.

[0097] Step 3: When the loss function value reaches the preset threshold or the number of iterations reaches the preset maximum number of training rounds, the training is terminated, the optimal model parameters are obtained, and the training results are saved;

[0098] Step 4: Input the verification set into the trained CNN-LSTM-Attention model for verification to obtain the final lighting brightness intelligent adjustment model.

[0099] Furthermore, the step 1 includes: calculating the required lighting brightness value for each segment according to the "Highway Tunnel Lighting Design Specifications JTG / TD70 / 2-01-2014", and marking the lighting brightness required for each sample in each segment of the tunnel.

[0100] In summary, this embodiment provides a highway tunnel lighting intelligent control system and method, which has the following beneficial effects:
