Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a multi-channel damage detection method, device and system based on terahertz signals, belonging to the technical field of automation equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern industrial technology, many key industries such as aerospace, energy pipelines, transportation and construction have put forward higher requirements for the monitoring of material health. In these fields, small damage to materials may lead to serious safety hazards, so it is crucial to develop efficient and accurate non-destructive testing technology. Existing non-destructive testing methods mainly include ultrasonic testing, X-ray testing and infrared testing.

[0003] Existing technologies can meet the needs of non-destructive testing to a certain extent, but there are still problems such as insufficient detection accuracy, low sensitivity and limited scope of application. Especially when facing multi-layer composite materials, complex structures and minor damage, existing detection methods often cannot provide sufficient resolution and reliability.

[0004] In recent years, terahertz detection technology has gradually become a research hotspot in non-destructive testing technology due to its non-ionizing radiation, high penetration, and millimeter or sub-millimeter resolution. Terahertz waves have strong penetration ability and can effectively detect internal defects, especially for multi-layer composite materials, non-metals and complex structures. In addition, terahertz imaging technology does not rely on traditional electromagnetic radiation, so it has higher safety and environmental adaptability.

[0005] However, existing terahertz detection technologies mostly rely on single-channel signal detection and are based on using terahertz signals to calculate the phase of reflected signals on the surface of an object. Although this method has achieved certain results in some applications, it still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of high-precision detection and real-time performance. Single-channel detection is difficult to provide sufficient resolution and information in non-destructive testing of complex structures or multi-layer materials, especially when facing large-scale objects or complex defects, it is difficult to accurately determine their specific location and nature.

[0094] Example 2

[0095] This embodiment provides a multi-channel damage detection device based on terahertz signals, including:

[0096] Signal module: used to obtain three-channel terahertz sinusoidal signals;

[0097] A preprocessing module is used to use one of the terahertz sinusoidal signals as a reference signal, a terahertz sinusoidal signal that has passed through a lossless object as a first detection signal (lossless signal), and a terahertz sinusoidal signal that has passed through the object to be detected as a second detection signal (detected signal), perform difference frequency processing on the reference signal, the first detection signal, and the second detection signal into three low-frequency signals, and convert the three low-frequency signals into corresponding three digital signals after amplification;

[0099] The determination module is used to convert the phase difference between the two detection signals and the reference signal in the frequency domain into a phase difference in the time domain, and determine the damage result of the object to be tested according to the phase difference in the time domain.

[0100] like Figure 3~4 In the embodiment shown, the signal module uses a terahertz generator, the pre-processing module uses a mixer, and the analysis module uses an FPGA processor.

[0101] The multi-channel damage detection device comprises a terahertz signal generator 1, a mixer 2, a power amplifier 3, a matching filter 4, an analog-to-digital converter 5, an FPGA digital processor 6 and a host computer 7 which are connected in sequence;

[0102] The terahertz signal generator 1 is used to emit three terahertz sinusoidal signals, the frequency range of the three terahertz sinusoidal signals is 0.1T~10THz, the first sinusoidal signal of the three sinusoidal signals is selected as the reference signal to directly enter the mixer 2, the second sinusoidal signal is the first detection signal (lossless signal) to enter the mixer 2 after passing through the lossless object, and the third sinusoidal signal is the second detection signal (signal to be measured) to enter the mixer 2 after passing through the object to be measured. The initial frequencies of the three terahertz signals are selected according to the material properties of the object to be measured to ensure that the signals can penetrate the material and produce a measurable phase difference under different structures;

[0103] The mixer 2 receives the reference signal sent by the terahertz signal generator 1, the first detection signal after passing through the damage-free object, and the second detection signal after passing through the object to be tested, and performs difference frequency processing to mix the three sinusoidal signals to generate a low-frequency signal containing damage information;

[0104] The power amplifier 3 receives the sinusoidal signal output by the mixer 2 and completes signal amplification and conversion of the single-ended signal to the differential signal. The power amplifier 3 is connected to the mixer via an SMA interface, performs power amplification on the difference frequency signal, and completes conversion of the single-ended signal to the differential signal to meet the input requirements of the analog-to-digital converter;

[0105] The matched filter 4 receives the output signal of the power amplifier 3 and filters out high-frequency and unnecessary signal components in the signal, retaining a clean and effective signal, with a center frequency matching the difference frequency signal frequency and a bandwidth range of 100kHz to 5MHz;

[0106] The analog-to-digital converter 5 receives the analog signal output by the matched filter 4 and completes the conversion from the analog signal to the digital signal, ensures the signal integrity through a high sampling rate (80MSPS), and provides high-quality input for subsequent digital processing;

[0107] The FPGA digital processor 6 receives the digital signal of the analog-to-digital converter 5, performs fast Fourier transform to calculate the phase difference between the first detection signal passing through the intact object and the reference signal, and the phase difference between the second detection signal passing through the object to be tested and the reference signal, and then outputs the signal to the host computer 7; the FPGA digital processor 6 has a built-in fast Fourier transform (FFT) module and a phase difference calculation module, which can perform frequency domain conversion on the three-channel digital signal and calculate the phase difference information in real time with an efficient parallel computing architecture, and extract key information reflecting the damage characteristics of the object to be tested by analyzing the phase difference between the reference signal and the two-channel detection signals;

It determines whether the object to be tested is damaged based on the visualization results. It is connected to the FPGA digital processor 6 through a data interface, receives and visualizes the phase difference information, and combines the dynamically changing phase difference curve and specific values ​​to provide users with a clear basis for judging the damage status of the object to be tested.

[0109] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: three terahertz signals are used to pass through a lossless object, an object to be tested, and directly enter a mixer. After passing through a lossless object, the output phase difference will produce a slight change due to the material characteristics of the object, and the phase of the signal after passing through the lossless object is subtracted from the phase of the signal directly entering the mixer; when passing through a damaged object, the internal structure changes due to material damage, which will cause the phase of the input signal to change. At this time, the phase of the signal passing through the damaged object is subtracted from the phase of the signal directly entering the mixer; the result of the phase difference calculation after passing through the lossless object is compared with the result of the phase difference calculation after passing through the damaged object. If the result exceeds the threshold, it can be determined that the inside of the object to be tested is damaged.
