[0054] The following will be combined with the drawings in the specification of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0055] Please see attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3The embodiment of the present invention provides a multi-source information fusion measurement system combining laser radar data and wind resource assessment, the system comprising:

[0056] The data acquisition module is used to collect lidar data, synthetic aperture radar data, numerical weather forecast data and ground meteorological station data. Through multi-source data acquisition, the system can not only capture local turbulence characteristics, but also provide large-scale distribution and dynamic change trends of wind fields, providing high-quality input for subsequent processing and fusion;

[0057] Data preprocessing module, used to filter noise, time align, space align and calibrate the collected data. The data preprocessing module improves the quality and consistency of multi-source data, ensures the accurate combination of different data sources, and provides high-precision input for dynamic fusion;

[0058] The information fusion module is used to dynamically fuse the pre-processed multi-source data and output high-precision wind speed and turbulence characteristic distribution. The information fusion module effectively combines the advantages of multi-source data to generate dynamic and refined wind speed and turbulence characteristic distribution, providing a solid foundation for subsequent wind field modeling;

[0059] Wind farm modeling and prediction module, which is used to build a dynamic three-dimensional wind farm based on fused data and perform short-term wind speed prediction. The wind farm modeling and prediction module provides dynamic and accurate wind farm distribution and short-term prediction results, helping wind farms achieve real-time response and optimize layout;

[0060] The intelligent evaluation and optimization module is used to conduct wind resource evaluation, wind turbine optimization layout and operation scheduling decisions based on modeling results. The intelligent evaluation and optimization module effectively improves the scientific nature of wind resource development, reduces the design risks of wind farms, and improves the efficiency of wind energy utilization.

[0061] Please see attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the data preprocessing module includes the following steps:

[0062] Noise filtering: The laser radar data is denoised using discrete wavelet transform. Noise filtering improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the laser radar data, reduces the error in wind speed and wind direction estimation, and provides a higher quality data basis for subsequent processing;

[0063] Time alignment: The linear interpolation method is used to complete the time alignment of lidar data and synthetic aperture radar data. Time alignment solves the problem of inconsistent timestamps of multi-source data, so that the subsequent fusion steps can align the time dynamic characteristics and avoid the deviation of wind field calculation caused by time error;

[0064] Spatial alignment: The bilinear interpolation method is used to resample the synthetic aperture radar data to a grid of lidar resolution. Spatial alignment makes the spatial distribution of multi-source data consistent, avoids wind field distribution deviation caused by resolution differences, and improves the accuracy of fusion and modeling.

[0065] Data calibration: The error correction of LiDAR and SAR data is carried out using ground-based meteorological station data. Data calibration significantly reduces the measurement errors of LiDAR and SAR data, and improves the physical credibility and data accuracy of subsequent wind field modeling.

[0066] Please see attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the discrete wavelet transform in the noise filtering step is performed according to the following formula:

[0067]

[0068] Where: S is the original signal; D k is the detail coefficient; A k is the approximation coefficient; N is the number of decomposition layers. The core of discrete wavelet transform is to decompose the original signal into components of different frequencies to achieve the separation of signal and noise. The effective signals in the lidar wind speed signal are mostly concentrated in the low-frequency components, while the noise is mainly manifested as high-frequency oscillations. Through decomposition and threshold processing, high-frequency noise is effectively removed and low-frequency signals are retained, thereby improving the quality of wind speed signals, ensuring the data foundation stability and accuracy of the measurement system, and laying a solid foundation for subsequent multi-source data fusion and wind field modeling.

[0069] Please see attached Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the information fusion module uses a dynamic Kalman filtering method to achieve the fusion of multi-source data, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0070] Status prediction:

[0071]

[0072] in: is the predicted state; F is the state transfer matrix. The state prediction uses the time dynamic model of the system to estimate the current wind speed distribution and turbulence characteristics, and preliminarily integrates the physical characteristics of time continuity. The state prediction provides an initial estimate for measurement update, which can reduce the deviation in multi-source data fusion and improve real-time performance.

[0073] Measurement Update:

[0074]

[0075] Where: K kis the Kalman gain; z k is the measurement data; H is the observation matrix. The measurement update dynamically adjusts the state estimate according to the actual observation data, and achieves the optimal combination of the predicted value and the observed value through the Kalman gain, which improves the accuracy of data fusion. The measurement update dynamically corrects the prediction error, making full use of the local high-resolution characteristics of the lidar, the large-scale characteristics of the SAR and the trend prediction ability of the NWP, ensuring the high accuracy of the fusion result.

[0076] Please see attached Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the Kalman gain is calculated according to the following formula:

[0077] K k =P k|k-1 H T (HP k|k-1 H T +R) -1

[0078] Where: P k|k-1 is the prediction error covariance; R is the measurement noise covariance. The role of the Kalman gain is to dynamically balance the contribution ratio of the predicted state and the observed data. Its core idea is to minimize the mean square error of the state update. By comparing the prediction error covariance and the measurement noise covariance, the Kalman gain can automatically adjust the weight under different data credibility conditions. This dynamic adjustment mechanism ensures the robustness and accuracy of multi-source data fusion, while improving the accuracy of the fusion results and ensuring the high credibility of key parameters such as wind speed and wind direction.

[0079] Please see attached Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the wind field modeling and prediction module includes the following steps:

[0080] Dynamic three-dimensional wind field modeling calculates turbulence intensity TI and wind shear coefficient α based on fusion data. Turbulence intensity and wind shear coefficient describe the randomness and high-variability characteristics of wind speed respectively. Combining these parameters can accurately characterize the local characteristics and overall trend of the wind field. The three-dimensional wind field model reflects the spatial distribution of the wind field in real time through grid calculation and dynamic update, thereby improving the accuracy of wind field characterization in complex terrain and turbulent environment, and providing a scientific basis for the optimization of wind farm layout;

[0081] For short-term wind speed forecasting, a long short-term memory network is used to model the wind speed time series. LSTM can capture the long-term dependencies in the wind speed time series, and is particularly suitable for nonlinear and dynamically changing wind speed forecasting scenarios. Through the memory mechanism, LSTM effectively solves the problem of insufficient long-term dependency modeling capabilities in traditional time series models, and provides reliable support for the operation scheduling optimization and short-term energy management of wind farms.

[0082] Please see attached Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the turbulence intensity TI in the dynamic three-dimensional wind field modeling step is calculated according to the following formula:

[0083]

[0084] Where: TI is the turbulence intensity; σ u is the standard deviation of wind speed; is the average wind speed. Turbulence intensity is an important indicator for measuring wind field fluctuations. Its calculation is based on the time series characteristics of wind speed. The standard deviation σ u : reflects the amplitude of wind speed fluctuation and is a direct representation of the randomness of turbulence; average wind speed A baseline value of turbulence intensity is provided to normalize the degree of fluctuation. By calculating the TI of each grid cell, a turbulence distribution map of the wind field can be constructed to accurately characterize the random fluctuation characteristics of wind speed. The turbulence intensity calculation provides a quantitative description of wind speed fluctuations and improves the level of refinement of three-dimensional wind field modeling.

[0085] Please see attached Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the wind shear coefficient α is calculated according to the following formula:

[0086]

By dynamically calculating the wind shear coefficient, the changing characteristics of wind speed with height can be accurately described, which provides important technical support for wind field modeling and wind resource assessment. By combining multi-source data fusion, the calculation results of the wind shear coefficient can be updated in real time, improving the accuracy and adaptability of complex wind field modeling.

Wind turbine optimization layout optimizes wind turbine arrangement through multi-objective optimization algorithm (such as genetic algorithm or particle swarm optimization algorithm) to balance power generation efficiency and turbulence load. Multi-objective optimization algorithm ensures efficient operation of wind farms by weighing power generation and turbulence load, while reducing the loss of turbulence to wind turbine structure, improving the operating life and economic benefits of wind farms, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of wind farms and reducing the wear of wind turbine structure caused by turbulence, providing reliable support for the long-term stable operation of wind farms;

Visualization transforms complex wind farm modeling and optimization data into an intuitive three-dimensional display. Combined with dynamic analysis functions, it provides strong data support and decision-making basis for the planning and operation of wind farms. The decision support and visualization module enables users to intuitively understand the wind farm characteristics and wind turbine layout optimization results, improves the scientificity and efficiency of wind farm planning and operation, and reduces the risk of misjudgment due to information complexity.
