Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aviation meteorology, and particularly to a civil aviation wind shear and visibility warning method. Background Art
[0002] In civil aviation operations, wind shear and low visibility are important meteorological factors affecting flight safety. Especially during the takeoff and landing phases of an aircraft, wind shear may cause sudden changes in flight attitude, excessive vertical acceleration, and flight trajectory deviation, while low visibility reduces the pilot's situational awareness and increases the risk of approach and landing. Therefore, accurately warning of wind shear and visibility changes is crucial for ensuring aviation safety.
[0003] Currently, the detection of wind shear mainly relies on ground Doppler weather radars, wind profilers, and the aircraft's own meteorological sensors. However, these methods have problems such as limited spatio-temporal resolution, limited detection range, and lagging response speed, making it difficult to meet the rapid warning requirements under complex meteorological conditions. In addition, the measurement of visibility usually relies on ground visibility meters and meteorological station observation data. Although these methods can provide relatively accurate point measurement results, they lack the ability to predict the spatio-temporal evolution trend of visibility. Especially in environmental conditions greatly affected by humidity and aerosols, traditional methods often have difficulty accurately retrieving the large-scale visibility distribution and predicting its future change trend.

[0083] Embodiment 1
[0084] Referring to Figures 1-3 , for an embodiment of the present invention, a civil aviation wind shear and visibility warning method is provided, including the following steps:
[0085] S1: Use a high-precision and high spatio-temporal resolution coherent lidar to collect echo signals, extract the frequency and intensity information in the echo signals, and simultaneously obtain civil aviation meteorological routine observation data to provide more comprehensive and accurate information for subsequent meteorological analysis and warning.
[0086] Specifically, the civil aviation meteorological routine observation data includes information such as surface wind, visibility, precipitation, temperature, humidity, and pressure, and is subjected to zonal noise filtering to improve the data quality.
[0087] It should be noted that the high-precision and high spatio-temporal resolution coherent lidar is an advanced remote sensing detection device. High precision means that the error of its measurement results is small and it can provide accurate meteorological parameter information; high spatio-temporal resolution means that the lidar has high resolution capabilities in both the time and space dimensions, and can perform multiple observations on a small area in a short time, thereby capturing the rapid changes and subtle differences of meteorological elements. The coherent lidar emits a laser beam and receives the echo signal reflected by the target, and uses coherent detection technology to extract the frequency and intensity information in the echo signal, which belongs to the prior art and will not be elaborated in detail herein.
[0088] S2: For the extracted frequency information, calculate the wind field distribution through a wind field inversion algorithm, and for the extracted intensity information, calculate the visibility distribution through a visibility inversion algorithm.
[0089] S21: For the extracted frequency information, calculate the wind field distribution through a wind field inversion algorithm, including the following steps:
[0090] S211: Denoise, filter, and normalize the echo signals collected by a high-precision high spatio-temporal resolution coherent lidar to improve the signal quality and provide a reliable data basis for subsequent analysis.
[0091] S212: Use signal processing techniques, such as fast Fourier transform or wavelet transform and other signal processing techniques, to perform frequency spectrum analysis on the preprocessed echo signals, and accurately extract the Doppler frequency shift information in the signals. These frequency shift information reflect the motion state of particles in the atmosphere and are the key basis for subsequent wind speed calculation.
[0092] S213: Based on the Doppler frequency shift formula calculate the wind speed distribution along the lidar beam direction, where is the laser wavelength, is the Doppler frequency shift. Through this formula, the frequency shift information can be converted into actual wind speed values to obtain the wind speed distribution along the beam direction.
[0093] S214: Combine the data measured in multiple lidar directions and use the optimal interpolation method to invert the three-dimensional wind field vector distribution.
[0094] It should be noted that the optimal interpolation method is an objective analysis method based on the least squares principle and is an existing technology that has been widely used in the assimilation and inversion of meteorological data. Through this method, the three-dimensional wind field vector distribution can be accurately inverted. The three-dimensional wind field vector distribution contains spatially gridded data of wind speed magnitude and direction and is used for subsequent wind shear identification.
[0095] S215: Integrate the wind field inversion results with the civil aviation meteorological routine observation data to perform wind field error correction and improve the accuracy of the wind field distribution. The wind field error correction can be implemented using existing technologies and will not be elaborated in detail here.
[0096] S22: For the extracted intensity information, calculate the visibility distribution through a visibility inversion algorithm, including the following steps:
[0097] S221: Preprocess the echo intensity signals collected by the coherent lidar.
[0098] During preprocessing, first, a noise filtering algorithm is used to accurately remove the background noise in the signal, effectively reducing the interference of noise on subsequent calculations. Then, a normalization method is adopted to adjust the echo intensity signal to a unified dimension and range, ensuring the comparability of signals at different times and positions, and laying a foundation for accurate subsequent calculations.
[0099] S222: Based on Mie scattering theory, calculate the visibility using the correlation between the atmospheric extinction coefficient and the visibility . The formula is:
[0100] ,
[0101] where the extinction coefficient is obtained by inverting the lidar equation, specifically using the Klett method or the Fernald method.
[0102] S223: Combine conventional meteorological observation data (such as humidity, aerosol concentration) to perform humidity correction and aerosol compensation on the visibility, so as to improve the accuracy of visibility measurement, help predict weather changes more accurately, and can help pilots and air traffic controllers better understand the weather conditions around the airport and make safer flight decisions.
[0103] Specifically, the humidity correction and aerosol compensation for the visibility include the following steps:
[0104] When performing humidity correction:
[0105] Obtain the relative humidity (RH) through meteorological station observation data;
[0106] Use the humidity growth factor for correction. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0107] ,
[0108] where is the current relative humidity (%), is the reference humidity, usually taken as 50%, is the empirical coefficient, generally taken as 0.6 - 1.2, depending on the type of environmental aerosol.
[0109] When the humidity is greater than the set value, the set value is set to 80%, that is, when > 80%, introduce a non-linear correction model, such as:
[0110] ,
[0111] where is the correction factor related to the environment, usually taken as 0.1 - 0.3.
[0112] Then, correct the extinction coefficient through the humidity growth factor :
[0113] ,
[0114] where is the original extinction coefficient measured by lidar; is the extinction coefficient after humidity correction.
[0115] Finally, calculate the corrected visibility by substituting into the Koschmieder formula to calculate the visibility:
[0116] ,
[0117] When performing aerosol compensation:
[0118] Obtain the aerosol optical depth (AOD) from the meteorological station observation data, and estimate the aerosol scattering coefficient in combination with the PM2.5 / PM10 monitoring data:
[0119] ,
[0120] where: and are empirical coefficients based on the regional environmental empirical values; is the particulate matter concentration ( ).
[0121] Use the Ångström exponent to correct the aerosol scattering coefficient:
[0122] ,
[0123] where is the lidar operating wavelength (such as 355 nm, 532 nm); is the reference wavelength, usually taken as 550 nm; is the Ångström exponent, generally taken as 1.0 - 1.5.
[0124] Calculate the extinction coefficient after aerosol compensation. When calculating, first calculate the aerosol compensation factor, and then calculate the corrected extinction coefficient according to the aerosol compensation factor. Among them, the aerosol compensation factor and the corrected extinction coefficient calculation formulas are as follows:
[0125] ,
[0126] ,
[0127] where is the empirical adjustment coefficient, usually taken as 0.1 - 0.3.
[0128] Substitute into the Koschmieder formula to calculate the visibility after aerosol compensation:
[0129] ,
[0130] where, is the visibility after aerosol compensation. The visibility data after aerosol compensation can avoid misjudgment caused by aerosol interference.
[0131] Finally, combine humidity correction and aerosol compensation to calculate the visibility. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0132] ,
[0133] where, is the visibility after humidity correction and aerosol compensation. By calculating the visibility data after humidity correction and aerosol compensation, the reliability of early warning can be improved.
[0134] The above method of humidity correction + aerosol compensation improves the accuracy of visibility inversion under extreme weather conditions, thus ensuring the reliability of low visibility warning at the airport.
[0135] S3: Based on the wind field inversion result, use the wind shear identification algorithm to locate the wind shear area and output the wind shear identification data. At the same time, based on the visibility inversion result, combine the spatio-temporal deduction algorithm to analyze the spatio-temporal evolution trend of visibility to generate a visibility profile and output the visibility profile data.
[0136] Specifically, based on the wind field inversion result, using the wind shear identification algorithm to detect the wind shear area includes the following steps:
[0137] S311: Conduct spatial grid division on the three-dimensional wind field data, and set vertical profile grids along the airport runway and takeoff and landing paths (horizontal resolution ≤ 100 m, vertical resolution ≤ 50 m).
[0138] S312: Calculate the wind speed gradient and wind direction mutation angle of adjacent grid cells.
[0139] Specifically, the wind speed gradient threshold is set to ≥ 15 knots / 100 m (horizontal) or ≥ 10 knots / 50 m (vertical);
[0140] The wind direction mutation angle threshold is set to ≥ 30°.
[0141] When the wind speed gradient and wind direction mutation in a certain area reach the preset threshold at the same time, that is, the horizontal wind speed change within 100 meters is not less than 15 knots, or the vertical wind speed change within 50 meters is not less than 10 knots, and the wind direction change angle between adjacent grid cells is not less than 30°, the area will be marked as a potential wind shear area.
[0142] For the marked potential wind shear areas, further time continuity verification is required. Specifically, it is necessary to confirm whether the wind shear phenomenon in the area persists for at least 2 minutes, so as to eliminate misjudgments caused by transient interference and ensure the accuracy of the identification results.
[0143] After confirming the time persistence of the potential wind shear area, it is necessary to combine the historical wind shear event database and use spatial pattern matching technology to conduct a detailed analysis of the potential area. By comparing historical data with current observation data, the specific scope of the wind shear area is finally determined, and the danger level is scientifically divided into low, medium and high levels according to its impact and potential risks, providing a strong basis for subsequent risk prevention and response measures.
[0144] The spatial position of the final wind shear area, wind speed gradient value, wind direction mutation angle, duration and corresponding danger level are integrated to generate wind shear identification data. The wind shear identification data is used to describe the spatial distribution characteristics and intensity change characteristics of wind shear over the airport, and serves as the input of the early warning model.
[0145] Furthermore, based on the visibility inversion results, the spatiotemporal evolution trend of visibility is analyzed and the visibility profile is generated by combining the spatiotemporal deduction algorithm, including the following steps:
[0146] S321: Input the visibility data of discrete points (visibility data inverted by lidar and observation data of meteorological stations) into the space-time Kriging model to generate the visibility space-time cube of the airport area (time resolution ≤ 5 minutes, spatial resolution ≤ 200m).
[0147] It should be noted that the space-time Kriging model is an extension of the traditional Kriging method in the space-time dimension. Its core is to model the coupling of spatial correlation and temporal correlation through the space-time covariance function. This method can simultaneously consider the data correlation in time and space, and perform linear unbiased optimal estimation of unsampled points. Generating the visibility space-time cube of the airport area through the space-time Kriging model can help improve the operating efficiency and safety of the airport and reduce the risk of flight delays and accidents caused by low visibility weather. It belongs to the existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0148] S322: Based on the visibility space-time cube, the visibility space-time profile is extracted along the flight take-off and landing path, and the visibility change trend in the next 15-30 minutes is predicted by the optical flow method.
[0149] Specifically, the extraction of the visibility spatio-temporal profile includes the following steps:
[0150] Set spatial sampling lines according to the airport runway and standard arrival and departure procedures (such as the ILS approach path) to ensure coverage of key flight phases, such as takeoff, approach, and landing;
[0151] Based on the generated visibility spatio-temporal cube, perform three-dimensional linear interpolation along the path to obtain a continuous visibility spatio-temporal distribution;
[0152] Taking the horizontal distance (along the runway axis) as the abscissa, the altitude (AGL) as the ordinate, and the time series as the third dimension, construct a visibility spatio-temporal profile to characterize the vertical distribution and time evolution characteristics of visibility along the route.
[0153] S323: Perform morphological dilation on the low visibility area (≤1000m) to identify continuous dangerous areas. This morphological dilation method uses well-known techniques in the field and can refer to Section 4.3 (Identification of Hazardous Weather Areas) of ICAO Doc 9837 "Aeronautical Meteorological Information Manual" and Chapter 16 (Spatial Analysis of Meteorological Data) of WMO-No.1200 "Meteorological Instruments and Methods of Observation".
[0154] S324: Combine the spatio-temporal variations of humidity and aerosol data to correct the prediction results of the optical flow method and generate a visibility evolution probability map. The generation of the visibility evolution probability map uses ensemble forecasting techniques. References: Zhou et al. "Atmospheric Environment" 2021 (Aerosol-Visibility Relationship Model).
[0155] S325: Based on the visibility evolution probability map, extract the visibility profile on the flight path and mark the mutation points (areas with a probability space gradient ≥ 0.2% / m) and continuously low visibility segments (continuous segments with a probability > 70% and a duration ≥ 10 minutes). The profile extraction and marking methods use the standard processing procedures in aeronautical meteorological services (see Annex C of ICAO Annex 3).
[0156] S326: Integrate the spatial position, prediction time, visibility value distribution, mutation point position, and low value section information of the visibility profile to generate visibility profile data, which is used to depict the visibility change trend along the route and serve as one of the input data sources for the early warning model.
[0157] S4: Input the wind shear identification data, visibility profile data, and meteorological routine observation data into a machine learning model for modeling and training.
[0158] Specifically, inputting wind shear recognition data, visibility profile data, and conventional meteorological observation data into a machine learning model for modeling and training includes the following steps:
[0159] S41: Clean, denoise, normalize, and align the wind shear recognition data, visibility profile data, and conventional meteorological observation data to ensure consistent data quality and eliminate outliers, providing reliable input for subsequent feature extraction and training.
[0160] S42: Extract key features (core variables affecting wind shear and visibility changes) from the preprocessed data, such as wind shear gradient, spatio-temporal visibility change rate, meteorological element correlation parameters, etc., and perform dimensionality reduction and feature selection. Among them, the dimensionality reduction process uses the principal component analysis method to reduce the data dimension and retain the main information. Feature selection adopts recursive feature elimination or feature importance evaluation based on the tree model to screen the most predictive features and improve the model training efficiency.
[0161] S43: Divide the data into a training set, a validation set, and a test set according to the ratio of 7:1.5:1.5, and label the categories or severity levels of wind shear and low visibility events based on the historical meteorological event library, providing reliable labels for supervised learning.
[0162] S44: Select the Generalized Regression Neural Network (GRNN) as the basic model to construct a prediction model, and define the loss function, optimization method, and hyperparameters.
[0163] Define the loss function, that is, according to the task requirements, select the mean square error or cross-entropy loss function to measure the difference between the predicted value and the true value of the crossbeam. The optimization method uses the Adam optimizer, combined with the learning rate decay strategy, to accelerate the model convergence. The hyperparameter settings can be determined by network search or random search to determine key hyperparameters such as the smoothing factor of GRNN.
[0164] S45: Use the training set for multiple rounds of iterative training, adjust the model parameters through the gradient descent algorithm, and combine K-fold cross-validation to evaluate the performance of the model on different data subsets to prevent overfitting. Set the performance monitoring on the validation set, and stop training in advance when the performance no longer improves to avoid overfitting.
[0165] S46: Calculate metrics such as prediction error, confusion matrix, and AUC-ROC on the test set to comprehensively evaluate the model performance. According to the evaluation results, adjust the model structure (such as adding hidden layers, changing activation functions) or hyperparameters (such as learning rate, regularization coefficient) to optimize the model effect.
[0166] S47: Integrate multiple GRNN models for ensemble learning, and adopt weighted average or voting mechanism to improve the prediction stability and accuracy, so as to obtain the final GRNN neural network prediction model. Then deploy the final prediction model to the warning system interface.
[0167] Through the above steps, a more accurate and efficient joint warning model for wind shear and visibility can be constructed.
[0168] S5: Generate a warning plan for wind shear and visibility over the airport based on the trained prediction model.
[0169] S6: Generate a wind shear warning signal and a visibility warning message based on the warning plan, and output them to the civil aviation meteorological warning system.
[0170] In summary, the present invention is based on the fusion of multi-source data such as coherent lidar and civil aviation meteorological observation data, and combines machine learning models. Through the wind field inversion algorithm and the wind shear identification algorithm, the wind shear area is accurately located. At the same time, the visibility inversion algorithm and the visibility spatio-temporal deduction algorithm are used to combine humidity correction and aerosol compensation to dynamically predict the evolution trend of visibility on the key routes of the airport, so as to realize the joint warning of high-precision wind shear and visibility and improve the warning accuracy under complex weather conditions. The present invention generates a visibility spatio-temporal cube of the airport area through the spatio-temporal Kriging model to realize the continuous change modeling of visibility over time and space, uses the optical flow method to predict the future visibility change trend and combines humidity and aerosol influence factors for dynamic correction to realize minute-level short-term visibility warning, and accurately marks low visibility mutation points and continuous low visibility segments through morphological dilation processing of the low value area, so as to provide a more accurate visibility evolution prediction for aircraft approach and landing. The present invention constructs a humidity correction method based on the humidity growth factor and the non-linear correction model to solve the problem of low visibility calculation under high humidity conditions. At the same time, an aerosol compensation method combining Angström exponent correction and aerosol optical depth (AOD) parameterization model is adopted to reduce the visibility error caused by polluted weather, and a unified visibility correction formula is constructed by integrating the dynamic compensation factors of humidity and aerosol, so as to achieve adaptive correction under different environmental conditions and improve the visibility inversion accuracy under extreme weather conditions, ensuring the reliability of low visibility warning at the airport.
