[0001] The present application relates to the field of lightning protection technology, and more specifically, to a lightning protection monitoring method, system, device and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Lightning protection systems can protect human society from the impact of lightning disasters. They use multidisciplinary knowledge such as meteorology, physics, electrical engineering and architecture to prevent and reduce the damage caused by lightning in a scientific way. The core of this field is to study the formation mechanism and discharge characteristics of lightning, and then develop effective monitoring and early warning systems, such as lightning positioning systems and satellite monitoring technology, to predict lightning activities in advance. Lightning protection technology also involves the design and installation of lightning protection devices such as lightning rods and surge protectors, as well as the construction of a reliable grounding system to ensure that lightning currents can be safely directed to the ground.

[0050] In order to better understand the technical solution in this embodiment, the technical solution in this embodiment will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0051] refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic flow chart of a lightning protection monitoring method according to some embodiments of the present application, and the lightning protection monitoring method mainly includes the following steps:

[0052] In step 101, an electrostatic field signal on the ground in a target area is detected by an electric field sensor.

[0053] It should be noted that when the charge distribution in the atmosphere changes (such as thundercloud discharge), the electrostatic field on the ground will also change. Therefore, the present application uses the electric field sensor to sense the change in the charge on the ground in the target area with a predetermined detection period, thereby obtaining the electrostatic field signal of the ground in the target area. In addition, the electric field sensor is a micro-electromechanical system electric field sensor, and the predetermined detection period is 1 second.

[0054] In step 102, the electrostatic field signal is subjected to mutation reconstruction to obtain a plurality of mutation electric field values ​​of the ground after the thundercloud discharge, and the electric field energy generated on the ground after the thundercloud discharge is determined based on the waveform characteristics of the electrostatic field signal.

[0055] In some embodiments, the electrostatic field signal is subjected to mutation reconstruction to obtain multiple mutation electric field values ​​on the ground after thundercloud discharge, which can be achieved by using the following steps:

[0056] Setting mutation detection elements in the mutation reconstruction process;

[0057] The electrostatic field signal is reconstructed into a plurality of sudden electric field values ​​on the ground after the thundercloud discharges through the sudden change detection element.

[0058] Preferably, the mutation detection element can be set according to the mutation amplitude of the electrostatic field signal caused by thundercloud discharge. As a preferred embodiment, when the mutation amplitude of the electrostatic field signal caused by thundercloud discharge is large, the mutation detection element can be set to [1, 1, 1]; when the mutation amplitude of the electrostatic field signal caused by thundercloud discharge is small, the mutation detection element can be set to [1, 2, 1]. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used for setting, which is not limited here. In addition, it should be noted that the mutation detection element is a sliding template for defining a local area of ​​the electrostatic field signal. When the mutation detection element is [1, 1, 1], it indicates a neighborhood range including the current sampling moment and one sampling moment before and after, and the weights of each sampling moment are the same. When the mutation detection element is [1, 2, 1], it indicates that within the neighborhood range of the current sampling moment and one sampling moment before and after, the weight of the current sampling moment is higher. Because the mutation amplitude of the electrostatic field signal caused by thundercloud discharge is large, the present application sets the mutation detection element to [1, 1, 1].

[0059] In specific implementation, the electrostatic field signal is reconstructed into multiple sudden change electric field values ​​on the ground after thundercloud discharge through the sudden change detection element, which can be realized in the following manner, namely: first, an electrostatic field value at a sampling moment is selected from the electrostatic field signal, and then, the expansion electric field value of the electrostatic field value is determined through the sudden change detection element, that is, the maximum value of the electrostatic field value at the sampling moment before the sampling moment, the electrostatic field value at the sampling moment after the sampling moment, and the electrostatic field value is obtained as the expansion electric field value of the electrostatic field value, and then, the corrosion of the electrostatic field value is determined through the sudden change detection element. The electric field value, that is, obtaining the electrostatic field value at the sampling moment before the sampling moment, the electrostatic field value at the sampling moment after the sampling moment and the minimum value among the electrostatic field values ​​as the corrosion electric field value of the electrostatic field value; finally, taking the difference between the expansion electric field value and the corrosion electric field value as the mutation electric field value of the electrostatic field value; repeating the above steps to determine the mutation electric field values ​​of the electrostatic field values ​​at the remaining sampling moments in the electrostatic field signal, thereby reconstructing the electrostatic field signal into multiple mutation electric field values ​​of the ground after the thundercloud discharges; in other embodiments, other methods may be used for determination, which is not limited here.

[0060] It should be noted that the mutation electric field value described in the present application is the mutation amount of the ground electrostatic field value during the thundercloud discharge process. The mutation electric field value can be used to characterize the intensity of the thundercloud activity at the corresponding sampling time. The larger the mutation electric field value, the more intense the thundercloud activity at the corresponding sampling time, and the smaller the mutation electric field value, the more stable the thundercloud activity at the corresponding sampling time.

[0061] In some embodiments, determining the electric field energy generated on the ground after thundercloud discharge based on the waveform characteristics of the electrostatic field signal can be achieved by the following steps:

[0062] Determine multiple electric field amplitudes of the electrostatic field signal, all electric field amplitudes are waveform characteristics of the electrostatic field signal;

[0063] The electric field energy generated on the ground after thundercloud discharge is determined by all electric field amplitudes.

[0064] In specific implementation, determining multiple electric field amplitudes of the electrostatic field signal can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, after setting the time domain window length, determining the average value of the electrostatic field value in the time domain window at each sampling moment in the electrostatic field signal as the electric field amplitude at the corresponding sampling moment, thereby obtaining multiple electric field amplitudes of the electrostatic field signal; it should be noted that the time domain window length can be set according to the noise level of the electrostatic field signal. When the noise level of the electrostatic field signal is high, a larger time domain window length is set, and when the noise level of the electrostatic field signal is low, a smaller time domain window length is set.

[0065] In specific implementation, the electric field energy generated on the ground after thundercloud discharge can be determined by all electric field amplitudes in the following manner, namely: the absolute values ​​of the electric field amplitudes corresponding to all sampling moments are integrated within the sampling time period as the electric field energy generated on the ground after thundercloud discharge. In other embodiments, other methods may be used to determine the energy, which is not limited here.

[0066] It should be noted that the electric field amplitude described in the present application represents the intensity of the precision electric field signal at the corresponding sampling moment, and the electric field amplitude can reflect the stability of the ground electric field in the target area. The larger the electric field amplitude, the lower the stability of the ground electric field in the target area, and the smaller the electric field amplitude, the higher the stability of the ground electric field in the target area. In addition, the electric field energy can be used to characterize the activity time of thunderclouds in the target area. The larger the electric field energy, the longer the activity time of thunderclouds in the target area, and the smaller the electric field energy, the shorter the activity time of thunderclouds in the target area.

[0067] In step 103, a discharge detection model of a thundercloud is constructed by using the electric field energy and all sudden electric field values, and then a lightning warning area is divided from the target area according to the discharge detection model.

[0068] In some embodiments, constructing a discharge detection model of a thundercloud by using the electric field energy and all sudden electric field values ​​can be achieved by the following steps:

[0069] Set the discharge label corresponding to each sudden electric field value;

[0070] A discharge detection model of a thundercloud is constructed according to all discharge labels, all sudden electric field values ​​and the electric field energy.

[0071] In specific implementation, setting the discharge label corresponding to each mutation electric field value can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, setting the breakdown discharge threshold of the mutation electric field value, selecting a mutation electric field value, and when the mutation electric field value is greater than or equal to the breakdown discharge threshold, setting the discharge label corresponding to the mutation electric field value to 1; when the mutation electric field value is less than the breakdown discharge threshold, setting the discharge label corresponding to the mutation electric field value to 0, repeating the above steps to determine the discharge labels corresponding to the remaining mutation electric field values.

[0072] refer to Figure 2As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of the process of constructing a discharge detection model shown in some embodiments of the present application. In specific implementation, the discharge detection model of a thundercloud can be constructed in the following manner, namely: first, all sample data are divided into a training set and a test set, wherein one sample data includes a mutation electric field value and its corresponding discharge label. For example, 80% of the sample data is used as a training set, and 20% of the sample data is used as a test set. Then, the electric field energy and the sample data in the training set are used as model inputs, and a supervised learning algorithm is used to train the model, and the discharge probability obtained by training is used as the model output; the discharge probability model is further verified through the sample data in the test set, and the verified model is used as the discharge detection model in the present application.

[0073] In some embodiments, dividing the lightning warning area from the target area according to the discharge detection model can be achieved by using the following steps:

[0074] Dividing the target area into a plurality of target sub-areas according to the coverage range of the electric field sensor;

[0075] Determining the discharge probability of each target sub-area based on the discharge detection model;

[0076] The lightning warning area is divided from the target area according to the discharge probability of each target sub-area.

[0077] It should be noted that the electric field sensor can sense electric field signals within a certain range (i.e., coverage range). In addition, the coverage range described in the present application refers to a circular range with the detection distance of the electric field sensor as the radius. In addition, the target sub-area refers to a part of the geographical area covered by the electric field sensor within the target area. Therefore, in specific implementation, the target area is divided into multiple target sub-areas through the coverage range of the electric field sensor. The following method can be used, namely: first, after obtaining the geographical range of the target area through a geographic information system, the geographical range is used as input, and a grid division algorithm in the prior art is used to divide the target area into multiple target sub-areas. The geographical scope of the target area is divided into multiple square grids (i.e., a grid map of the geographical scope of the target area). Then, through the sub-area division algorithm in the prior art, the overlapping area between the coverage range of each electric field sensor and the grid map is determined as multiple initial sub-areas of the target area. Subsequently, after defining the objective function as minimizing the overlapping area of ​​the coverage range, the objective function is used as input, and the simulated annealing algorithm in the prior art is used to adjust the distribution pattern of each initial sub-area. Finally, each adjusted initial sub-area is used as multiple target sub-areas of the target area. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to achieve this, which is not limited here.

[0078] It should be noted that the discharge probability described in the present application refers to the probability of thundercloud discharge occurring in the target sub-area within a certain period of time; in specific implementation, the discharge probability of each target sub-area determined based on the discharge detection model can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, a target sub-area is selected, and the mutation electric field value corresponding to the multiple electrostatic field values ​​collected by the electric field sensor in the target sub-area is obtained, and then the above process of determining the electric field energy from the mutation electric field value is repeated to obtain the electric field energy in the target sub-area, and then all the mutation electric field values ​​and the electric field energy are used as the input of the discharge detection model, thereby using the output result of the discharge detection model as the discharge probability of the target sub-area, and repeating the above steps to determine the discharge probability of the remaining target sub-areas.

[0079] In specific implementation, dividing the lightning warning area from the target area according to the discharge probability of each target sub-area can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, setting a discharge warning threshold, and then, when the discharge probability of the target sub-area is greater than or equal to the discharge warning threshold, the target sub-area is used as a warning sub-area, and when the discharge probability of the target sub-area is less than the discharge warning threshold, no processing is performed, thereby obtaining multiple warning sub-areas, and finally, the overlapping area of ​​all warning sub-areas on the target area is used as the lightning warning area in this application. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used for implementation, which are not limited here.

[0080] In step 104, the historical ground-to-ground lightning distribution in the lightning warning area is obtained, and then the positioning features of the thunderclouds in the lightning warning area are fitted based on the historical ground-to-ground lightning distribution. The positioning features and the waveform features of the electrostatic field signal are fused and correlated to obtain the movement trend of the thunderclouds in the lightning warning area.

[0081] In specific implementation, after setting multiple observation points at different positions in the target area, an electromagnetic field sensor can be installed at each observation point to detect the position of each ground lightning event in the lightning warning area. After the positions of all ground lightning events form a lightning protection monitoring database for the target area, the historical ground lightning distribution in the lightning warning area can be obtained from the lightning protection monitoring database. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used for implementation, which are not limited here.

[0082] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of the process of determining positioning features shown in some embodiments of the present application. The positioning features of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area can be fitted based on the historical ground lightning distribution and can be implemented by the following steps:

[0083] First, in 1041, the location distribution coordinates of each ground-to-ground flash point in the historical ground-to-ground flash distribution are obtained;

[0084] Then, in 1042, the position centroids of multiple thunderclouds are fitted through the position distribution coordinates of all ground flash points;

[0085] Then, in 1043, the position coordinates of the observation points corresponding to the centroids of each position are obtained;

[0086] Finally, in 1044, the positioning features of the thunderclouds in the lightning warning area are determined according to the position centroids of all thunderclouds and the position coordinates of the observation points corresponding to the position centroids.

[0087] In the specific implementation, fitting the position centroids of multiple thunderclouds through the position distribution coordinates of all ground flash points can be achieved in the following way, namely: first, after determining the Euclidean distance between the position distribution coordinates of every two ground flash points by the Euclidean distance algorithm in the prior art, all Euclidean distances are used as the similarities between every two ground flash points, and then all similarities are used as input, and the K-means clustering algorithm in the prior art is used to output multiple point clusters composed of ground flash points, and then the center point of each point cluster is used as the position centroid of a thundercloud, so as to obtain the position centroid of the thundercloud corresponding to each point cluster. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used for implementation, which are not limited here.

[0088] It should be noted that the present application takes the observation point closest to the position centroid of the thundercloud as the observation point corresponding to the position centroid of the thundercloud. Therefore, as a preferred embodiment, the positioning features of the thunderclouds in the lightning warning area are determined based on the position centroids of all thunderclouds and the position coordinates of the observation points corresponding to each position centroid. This can be achieved in the following manner, namely: first, select the position centroid of a thundercloud, obtain the position coordinates of the observation point corresponding to the thundercloud, then determine the distance between the position centroid and the position coordinates of the observation point, repeat the above steps, determine the results corresponding to the remaining thunderclouds, and finally, take the average of the results corresponding to all thunderclouds as the positioning features of the thunderclouds in the lightning warning area.

[0089] It should be noted that the positioning features described in the present application can be used to characterize the activity range of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. The larger the positioning features, the wider the activity range of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. The smaller the positioning features, the smaller the activity range of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area.

[0090] In some embodiments, the following steps may be used to fuse and associate the positioning feature with the waveform feature of the electrostatic field signal to obtain the movement trend of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area:

[0091] Acquire multiple electric field amplitudes corresponding to the electrostatic field signal waveform characteristics;

[0092] Determining the electric field disturbance degree of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area through all electric field amplitudes;

[0093] Determine the position factor of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area according to the positioning feature;

[0094] The movement trend of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area is determined based on the electric field disturbance degree and the location factor.

[0095] In specific implementation, determining the electric field disturbance degree of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area through all electric field amplitudes can be achieved in the following manner, namely: taking the variance of multiple electric field amplitudes corresponding to the electrostatic field signal waveform characteristics as the electric field disturbance degree of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area; as a preferred embodiment, determining the position factor of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area according to the positioning feature can be achieved in the following manner, namely: taking the inverse of the positioning feature plus 1 as the position factor of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area; in addition, as a preferred embodiment, determining the movement trend of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area based on the electric field disturbance degree and the position factor can be achieved in the following manner, namely: taking the product of the electric field disturbance degree and the position factor as the movement trend of the thundercloud in the lightning warning area.

[0096] It should be noted that the electric field disturbance degree described in the present application can be used to characterize the degree of electric field fluctuation caused by thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. The greater the electric field disturbance degree, the higher the degree of electric field fluctuation caused by thunderclouds in the lightning warning area, and the smaller the electric field disturbance degree, the lower the degree of electric field fluctuation caused by thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. In addition, the position factor reflects the position characteristics of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. The larger the position factor, the activities of thunderclouds are mainly concentrated at the edge of the lightning warning area, that is, the risk of lightning strike is lower. The smaller the position factor, the closer the thundercloud is to or has affected the core part of the lightning warning area, that is, the risk of lightning strike in the lightning warning area increases. The present application combines the two indicators of electric field disturbance degree and position factor through the movement trend, thereby reflecting the movement trend of thunderclouds in the lightning warning area. The larger the movement trend, the thundercloud is approaching the lightning warning area, and the smaller the movement trend, the thundercloud is moving away from the lightning warning area.

[0097] In step 105, a lightning strike risk coefficient of the target area is established according to the movement trend, and lightning strike early warning monitoring is performed on the target area according to the lightning strike risk coefficient.

[0098] In some embodiments, establishing the lightning strike risk factor of the target area according to the movement trend may be achieved by the following steps:

[0099] Determine the center coordinates of the lightning warning area;

[0100] The lightning strike risk coefficient of the target area is determined by the central position coordinates of the lightning warning area and the movement trend.

[0101] It should be noted that after determining the lightning warning area, the center position coordinates of the lightning warning area can be determined by taking the position coordinates of the geometric center of the lightning warning area as the center position coordinates of the lightning warning area. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to determine the center position coordinates, which are not limited here.

[0102] In specific implementation, the lightning strike risk coefficient of the target area can be determined by the central position coordinates of the lightning warning area and the moving trend in the following manner, namely: first, the position centroid of each thundercloud in the lightning warning area is obtained, and then the distance between the centroid of each position and the central position coordinates is determined; finally, the trend association feature corresponding to the moving trend is multiplied by the average value of all distances and the result is used as the lightning strike risk coefficient of the target area.

[0103] It should be noted that the lightning strike risk coefficient described in the present application characterizes the degree of lightning strike risk in the target area. The larger the lightning strike risk coefficient, the higher the degree of lightning strike risk in the target area, and the smaller the lightning strike risk coefficient, the lower the degree of lightning strike risk in the target area.

[0104] In some embodiments, the lightning strike early warning monitoring of the target area according to the lightning strike risk coefficient can be implemented by the following steps:

[0105] Set the lightning warning threshold for the target area;

[0106] The target area is monitored for lightning strike warning using the lightning strike warning threshold and the lightning strike risk factor.

[0107] In specific implementation, the lightning strike warning threshold can be set according to the terrain conditions in the target area. For example, in terrain conditions with frequent lightning activity such as mountainous areas or coastal areas, a lower lightning strike warning threshold is set; in areas with less lightning activity such as plains, a higher lightning strike warning threshold is set, thereby improving the efficiency of lightning protection monitoring in the target area.

[0108] In specific implementation, the lightning strike warning monitoring of the target area can be achieved through the lightning strike warning threshold and the lightning strike risk coefficient in the following manner, namely: when the lightning strike risk coefficient is greater than or equal to the lightning strike warning threshold, it is judged that the target area has a high lightning strike risk, and a warning information is sent to the lightning strike monitoring center of the target area; when the lightning strike risk coefficient is less than the lightning strike warning threshold, no processing is performed.
