Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of monitoring and positioning of electric power communication room equipment, and in particular to a method for monitoring and three-dimensional positioning of electric power communication room equipment faults by linking infrared thermal imaging with acoustic imaging. Background Art

[0002] The normal operation of equipment in power communication rooms is the key to ensuring data security and system reliability, but existing fault monitoring technologies mostly rely on limited electrical parameter detection, making it difficult to fully diagnose potential internal faults of equipment and usually lack real-time monitoring capabilities.

[0003] In recent years, non-contact detection technology has gained attention. Infrared thermal imaging can detect the surface temperature distribution of equipment for thermal fault diagnosis, and acoustic imaging can capture sound waves to analyze internal anomalies. The two are often used independently and lack linkage, which limits the comprehensiveness and accuracy of monitoring. Unsupervised learning technology can automatically identify and extract patterns in data, and is very suitable for processing large-scale infrared thermal imaging and acoustic imaging data. This method can reveal abnormal patterns in equipment operation and realize the diagnosis of unknown faults.

[0004] Although patent application number 202310307598.8 proposes a cable fault location method and system using a microphone and infrared thermal imaging for joint positioning, it has made progress in two-dimensional positioning and only uses the fusion image of the infrared thermal image and the sound field cloud map as the basis for fault analysis. It does not use intelligent image recognition technology to identify the fault, does not perform three-dimensional positioning of the fault point, and also ignores the fault information of the single data of the infrared thermal image or the sound field cloud map. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for fault monitoring and three-dimensional positioning of power communication room equipment by linking infrared thermal imaging with acoustic imaging. The method strengthens the fusion analysis of infrared thermal imaging and acoustic imaging data by introducing unsupervised learning technology, realizes more accurate fault feature recognition and three-dimensional positioning, and provides more reliable technical support for the stable operation of the power system.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: The method for monitoring and three-dimensionally locating equipment faults in a power communication room by combining infrared thermal imaging with acoustic imaging provided by the present invention comprises the following steps: S1, collecting and preprocessing the image pairs consisting of thermal images and acoustic field cloud images of the normal operating status of the equipment in the power communication room; S2, offline calibration of infrared thermal imager and acoustic camera; S3, registering and fusing the preprocessed image pairs to obtain a fused image; S4, build a model for equipment fault monitoring and fault area location in the power communication room; S5, accurately locate the fault point in three dimensions according to the thermal image fault area, the acoustic field cloud image fault area, and the fusion image fault area.

[0007] Further, the preprocessing includes the following steps: The image pairs are converted into single-channel grayscale image pairs by using weighted averaging method; The grayscale range of the single-channel grayscale image pair is stretched using a piecewise linear grayscale transformation method to obtain a grayscale image pair with prominent contour features; The grayscale image pairs with prominent contour features are denoised using Gaussian filters; Furthermore, the offline calibration includes the following steps: Make a rectangular wooden calibration board with an array of equally spaced buzzers; An infrared thermal imager and an acoustic camera are used to collect image pairs consisting of thermal images and acoustic field cloud images of the calibration plate at different positions when the buzzer array is working; The preprocessing step is performed on the image pair consisting of the thermal image and the acoustic field cloud image of the calibration plate in different positions; Based on the threshold, the grayscale image pair with prominent contour features after denoising is processed into a binary image to obtain an image pair with a temperature area and a sound field area segmented; According to the gray values ​​of the temperature area and the sound field area obtained by segmentation, the calibration points are detected and located using the image moment; The calibration points of multiple frames of images at different angles are sorted using the calibration point co-linearity detection algorithm; Calculate the intrinsic parameter matrix of the infrared thermal imager based on the coordinates of the located and sorted calibration points and the external parameter matrix And the intrinsic parameter matrix of the acoustic camera and the external parameter matrix .

[0008] Further, the registration comprises the following steps: Determine the viewing angles of thermal imaging cameras and acoustic cameras; According to the internal parameter matrix of the infrared thermal imager and the external parameter matrix And the intrinsic parameter matrix of the acoustic camera and the external parameter matrix Calculate the homography matrix that transforms the image with a smaller viewing angle into the coordinate system of another image; Traverse all pixels of the image with a smaller viewing angle range, use the homography matrix to transform them to the viewing angle of the image with a larger viewing angle range, and use the interpolation method to fill in the blank pixels when some pixels have no corresponding pixels.

[0009] Furthermore, the fusion adopts a pixel weighted average fusion method to perform linear weighted average on the grayscale values ​​of the pixels of the thermal image and the acoustic field cloud image obtained by the alignment.

[0010] Furthermore, constructing an unsupervised learning fault monitoring and fault area location model includes the following steps: The pre-trained feature extractor is used to extract the low-level visual features of the registered thermal image, sound field cloud image and fusion image of the normal operation status of the power communication room equipment and perform L2 norm normalization. Using non-parametric clustering algorithm, the mean vector of each cluster is taken as the normal prototype to obtain the normal thermal image feature prototype, the normal sound field cloud image feature prototype and the normal fusion feature prototype; In the monitoring stage, the thermal image and the sound field cloud map are collected in real time, and the preprocessing step and the registration step are adopted to obtain the low-level visual features of the real-time thermal image, the real-time sound field cloud map and the real-time fusion image and perform L2 norm normalization; The normal thermal image feature prototype, the normal sound field cloud image feature prototype and the normal fusion feature prototype normalized by L2 norm are respectively used as the kernel parameters of 1x1 convolution and the inner product of the corresponding low-level visual features of the real-time thermal image, the low-level visual features of the real-time sound field cloud image and the low-level visual features of the real-time fusion image; The inner product result is applied to the channel maximum pooling to obtain the similarity between the pixels at each position in the normal thermal image feature prototype and the real-time thermal image, the normal sound field cloud image feature prototype and the real-time sound field cloud image, and the normal fusion feature prototype and the real-time fusion image; A fault score threshold is set. When the similarity is lower than the threshold, the pixel position is determined as a fault point. If a fault point exists, it is determined that there is a fault area in the real-time image.

[0011] Furthermore, accurate three-dimensional positioning of the fault point includes the following steps: Determine an accurate two-dimensional fault point criterion, and calculate the accurate two-dimensional fault point using the image moment; Based on the result of the offline calibration, the precise two-dimensional fault point is mapped to the three-dimensional space.

The fused image can locate the fault point more accurately when both the temperature and sound of the equipment are abnormal, and link single fault information at the same time to avoid the situation in which, when only the temperature or only the sound is abnormal, the threshold is not reached in the fault area determination process of the fused image and it is determined to be a normal point, thereby further improving the accuracy of fault location.

[0014] This method realizes image registration based on the parameters obtained by offline calibration of the camera during the process of converting the thermal image and the acoustic field cloud map into a unified coordinate system for fusion. The traditional camera uses a checkerboard calibration plate that cannot obtain acoustic and temperature characteristics and cannot calibrate the thermal imager and the acoustic camera. This method produces a special rectangular wooden calibration plate with an equidistantly arranged buzzer array during the offline calibration process to complete the calibration of the thermal imager and the acoustic camera. The calibrated parameters can be used to convert the two-dimensionally located fault point into a three-dimensional world coordinate system.

[0015] This method adopts an unsupervised learning algorithm in the process of fault judgment, and performs similarity analysis on the monitored real-time thermal image features, sound field cloud map features and fusion image features with the normal thermal image feature prototype, normal sound field cloud map feature prototype and normal fusion feature prototype respectively, so as to further judge the fault, realize intelligent real-time monitoring and judgment of the fault, improve the efficiency of fault monitoring of equipment in the power communication room, and help monitor unknown faults.

[0016] This method includes collecting and preprocessing image pairs consisting of thermal images and acoustic field cloud images of the normal operating status of the power communication room equipment; offline calibration of the infrared thermal imager and the acoustic camera; fusing the preprocessed image pairs after registration to obtain a fused image; building a fault monitoring and fault area positioning model for the power communication room equipment; and accurately locating the fault point in three dimensions according to the thermal image fault area, the acoustic field cloud image fault area, and the fused image fault area. The present invention uses the innovative linkage of infrared thermal imaging and acoustic imaging, combined with an unsupervised learning algorithm, to intelligently monitor and locate three-dimensional fault points in real time, thereby improving the efficiency of fault monitoring and the accuracy of fault location, while also having the advanced ability to monitor unknown faults.

[0017] The more accurate positioning of the present invention includes two levels. The first level: for the fused image, due to the combination of the information of the thermal image and the sound field cloud map, the fault point is located more accurately from two dimensions; the second level: the information of a single thermal image and the sound field cloud map is linked to avoid the situation in which the fused image fault area is judged as a normal point because the threshold is not reached during the judgment process of the fault area of ​​the fused image when only the temperature or only the sound is abnormal, thereby further improving the accuracy.
