Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ocean measurement, and particularly relates to a method and system for measuring the sea surface height in the deep and far sea based on Beidou PPP-B2b. Background Art

[0002] With the intensification of global climate change and the increasingly serious problem of sea-level rise, the monitoring of ocean height has become increasingly important globally. Especially in the deep and far sea areas, real-time and high-precision sea surface height data is crucial for navigation safety, weather forecasting, early warning of ocean disasters (such as storm surges, tsunamis), and ocean resource development. The accurate measurement of sea surface height directly affects the safety of ship navigation planning, ocean disaster early warning, and deep-sea energy development.

[0003] Traditional ocean height measurement methods face multiple challenges. The ocean measurement system based on RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) technology relies heavily on the differential signal support of ground base stations. In the deep and far sea areas far from land, due to the lack of ground-based signal coverage, it is difficult for RTK technology to achieve high-precision positioning. In addition, in complex sea conditions, the GNSS measurement accuracy of traditional offshore buoys is often affected due to the attitude change of the buoys, resulting in the instability of measurement results. On the other hand, the deficiencies in data transmission also bring difficulties to deep and far sea measurement. Traditional radio communication systems have insufficient coverage in the far sea area and cannot ensure the real-time transmission of measurement data, thus affecting the stability and continuity of the monitoring system.

[0018] To make the above - mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will give a detailed description of the specific implementation manners of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific implementations disclosed below.

[0019] The innovation points of the present invention are as follows: By integrating a four - antenna GNSS receiver, a barometer, and a pressure gauge, and combining with the Beidou PPP - B2b precise correction signal, high - precision sea - surface height measurement is achieved; using a multi - antenna layout and a buoy attitude correction algorithm, the influence of buoy tilt on measurement accuracy is effectively eliminated; the complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) algorithm is used to denoise the sea - surface height data, significantly improving the data quality. This system does not rely on ground base stations and is applicable to deep - sea areas, providing reliable data support for marine environment monitoring, navigation safety, and climate change research.

[0020] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 shown, the deep - sea sea - surface height measurement method based on Beidou PPP - B2b includes: S1, integrating a data acquisition module, a data processing module, and a data transmission module on a buoy, and deploying the buoy to the target deep - sea area; S2. The four-antenna GNSS receiver, barometer, short message antenna at the top of the buoy, and the pressure gauge at the bottom of the buoy collect data and transmit it in real time to the data processing module in the equipment cabin; S3. The GNSS data processing unit in the data processing module receives the raw data from the four-antenna GNSS receiver and the PPP-B2b correction signal transmitted by the data transmission module, and calculates the instantaneous geodetic height of the antenna of the four-antenna GNSS receiver based on the WGS84 coordinate system; S4. The attitude calculation unit in the data processing module receives the three-dimensional coordinates of the four-antenna GNSS receiver from the GNSS data processing unit, and corrects the attitude of the buoy using the buoy attitude correction algorithm based on the XYZ coordinate information of the four-antenna GNSS receiver to obtain the buoy height in the vertical direction; S5. The barometer and the pressure gauge transmit the measured sea pressure data and the water pressure data at the bottom of the buoy to the environmental pressure data processing unit in the data processing module, and calculate the draft depth of the buoy according to the built-in instantaneous average water depth algorithm; S6. Integrate the data from step S3 to step S5, and calculate the instantaneous sea surface height by the instantaneous sea surface height algorithm built in the sea surface height calculation unit of the data processing module; S7. Perform noise reduction processing on the calculated instantaneous sea surface height through the filter calculation unit; S8. Send the result to the monitoring service platform through the data transmission module.

[0021] Exemplarily, in S3, the GNSS data processing unit in the data processing module receives the raw data from the four-antenna GNSS receiver and the PPP-B2b correction signal transmitted by the data transmission module, and calculates the instantaneous geodetic height of the four-antenna GNSS receiver based on the WGS84 coordinate system, specifically including: S301. The PPP-B2b correction signal is broadcast in real time through the GEO satellites of BDS-3. Its generation process is as follows: First, continuous observations are made on the visible GNSS satellites using distributed encrypted high-precision continuous monitoring stations to collect pseudorange, carrier phase observation data, and meteorological data. Subsequently, the ground master control station verifies and evaluates the preprocessed data, fits correction parameters such as satellite orbits, clock biases, differential code biases, and user range accuracy indices (URAIs) through dynamic smoothing processing, and arranges the precise correction parameters according to the BDS protocol. The PPP-B2b information is encoded in binary format. After 64-ary low-density parity-check channel coding, the navigation message data frame of the PPP-B2b signal is concatenated with a synchronization header of 16 symbols, a satellite PRN number of 6 symbols, and a reserved identification bit of 6 symbols, totaling 1000 symbols. The broadcast time of each frame is 1 s. Finally, the uplink station transmits the correction parameters to the GEO satellite, and the GEO satellite broadcasts them through the I branch of the PPP-B2b correction signal. After the four-antenna GNSS receiver obtains the PPP-B2b correction signal, real-time precise point positioning can be achieved. Compared with traditional PPP that relies on the Internet to transmit correction information, the PPP-B2b correction signal can achieve high-precision positioning without an external network, which is especially suitable for areas difficult to cover by base stations such as the deep sea and remote regions.

[0022] S302. To ensure that the correction information broadcast by PPP-B2b can correctly match the corresponding ephemeris, each information type contains an IOD parameter for determining the matching strategy. It includes the IOD of the state space description data version (IOD SSR), the IOD of the mask data version (IODP), and the IODN and IOD Corr of the satellite orbit and clock bias correction information.

[0023] The matching of the corresponding ephemeris includes: IODSSR serves as the version identifier for the state space description data and is used to mark the update status of the current data generation configuration. In the broadcast information, IODSSR is an essential component. In practical applications, data matching and usage can only be achieved when the IODSSRs of various types of information received by the user are consistent; if the IODSSRs are inconsistent, matching cannot be completed. IODP is the version identifier for the masked data and is used to distinguish different versions of satellite mask information. This parameter is encoded in both the mask information and the clock offset parameter and is transmitted synchronously during broadcast. Matching usage can only be achieved when the IODPs of both are consistent. IODN is the version identifier for the satellite orbit and clock offset correction information. If the IOD of GNSS is inconsistent with the IODN broadcast by the PPP-B2b signal, it indicates that the navigation message has been updated. At this time, the system will preferentially use the old PPP-B2b signal and match it with the new signal after it is updated. The specific matching rules are as follows: the IODN of GPS matches the IODC of the LNAV navigation message, and the IODN of BDS-3 matches the IODC of the CNAV1 navigation message. IODCorr is the version identifier for the satellite orbit and clock offset correction information. When the IODCorrs of the orbit and clock offset are consistent, they can be combined for use; if they are inconsistent, matching cannot be achieved.

[0024] S303. In the present invention, the buoy realizes high-precision positioning by receiving the orbit and clock offset correction information provided by the Beidou PPP-B2b correction signal and combining the pseudorange and carrier phase observations of the four-antenna GNSS receiver. Pseudorange and carrier phase are the core observables for GNSS precise positioning, and their original observation value expressions are the commonly used PPP positioning models. The formulas are as follows: ; ; In the formula, the superscript represents the satellite system, and the subscripts and represent the receiver and the frequency respectively; and are the original pseudorange measurement value and the original carrier phase measurement value respectively; represents the geometric distance between the satellite and the site; is the speed of light; and represent the receiver clock offset at the signal reception time and the satellite clock offset at the signal transmission time respectively; and represent the time delays of the pseudorange observations caused by the receiver and satellite hardware respectively; and represent the ionospheric delay and the tropospheric delay during the propagation of the signal of frequency j from the satellite to the receiver respectively; and are the carrier wavelength and the integer ambiguity of the carrier phase, respectively; and represent the phase time delays caused by satellite and receiver hardware delays, respectively; represents the error term independent of frequency; and represent the multipath effects and other unmodeled noises of the pseudorange observation and the carrier observation, respectively.

[0025] S304. The satellite orbit correction parameters provided by the PPP-B2b correction signal include the correction values of three components: radial (R), tangential (A), and normal (C), with the unit of meter. These correction parameters are used to correct the CNAV1 broadcast ephemeris broadcast through the B1C signal. According to the document issued by Beidou, the specific formula is as follows: ; In the formula, is the satellite position after correction by the orbit correction parameters, is the satellite position calculated from the CNAV1 navigation message of the B1C signal, is the satellite position correction vector; The calculation formula of ; In the formula, are the unit vectors in the radial, tangential, and normal directions, respectively, is the orbit correction vector obtained from the PPP-B2b correction signal, and the components are in the order of the radial, tangential, and normal directions; ; In the formula, are the satellite position vector and velocity vector calculated from the CNAV1 navigation message of the B1C signal, respectively; S305. The clock offset correction information provided by the PPP-B2b correction signal is the correction of the clock offset of the broadcast ephemeris. According to the document issued by Beidou, the correction method is as follows: ; In the formula, is the satellite clock offset after correction by the clock offset correction parameters of the PPP-B2b correction signal, is the satellite clock offset calculated from the CNAV1 navigation message, is the clock offset correction parameter, is the speed of light.

[0026] S306. In the present invention, the buoy adopts a four-antenna GNSS receiver layout, where three secondary GNSS receivers are roughly scattered around the circumference, forming a layout of the vertices of a triangle, and the primary GNSS receiver is located at the center of the circle. The primary GNSS receiver is equipped with a primary antenna, and each of the three secondary GNSS receivers is equipped with a secondary antenna. After being corrected by PPP-B2b, the pseudorange observation value and the carrier phase observation value are used to calculate the geometric distance between the primary antenna and the satellite ,

[0028] Exemplarily, in step S4, the attitude of the buoy is corrected using the buoy attitude correction algorithm to obtain the height of the buoy in the vertical direction, including: S401. The four-antenna GNSS receiver on the buoy collects GNSS signals from satellites, and the primary antenna and the three secondary antennas respectively obtain independent coordinate data, usually three-dimensional X, Y, and Z coordinates; S402. The primary antenna (labeled 4) of the primary GNSS receiver of the buoy is located at the center of the circle, and the secondary antennas (labeled 1, 2, and 3 respectively) of the remaining three secondary GNSS receivers are distributed around the circumference, forming an equilateral triangle. The baseline vector represents the relative position relationship between the primary antenna and the secondary antenna: ; In the formula, are the coordinates of the three secondary antennas, is the coordinate of the primary antenna; S403.

After obtaining the pitch angle and roll angle, calculate the tilt angle of the GNSS main antenna support rod of the buoy body. , the expression is: ; Based on the three-dimensional geometric relationship, it reflects the total tilt angle of the buoy body relative to the vertical direction; S406. The height difference between the phase center of the GNSS main antenna at the top of the buoy and the bottom end of the pressure gauge , when the buoy is tilted, the height in the vertical direction is .

[0029] Exemplarily, the environmental pressure data processing unit in the data processing module to which the step S5 is transmitted calculates the draft depth of the buoy according to the built-in instantaneous average water depth algorithm, including: S501. Calculate the draft depth according to the atmospheric pressure collected by the barometer at the top of the buoy and the water pressure collected by the pressure gauge at the bottom of the buoy.

[0030] Exemplarily, in step S7, the calculated instantaneous sea surface height is denoised by a filtering calculation unit, including: For the swell and noise contained in the acquired instantaneous sea surface height data, the complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition method (CEEMD) is used to hierarchically extract the intrinsic mode function components (IMFs) to complete the denoising of the swell and noise.

The main GNSS receiver is equipped with a main antenna, and each of the three sub - GNSS receivers is equipped with a sub - antenna; The barometer 3, like the receiver, is connected to the circular bracket below; The pressure gauge 7 is installed in the bottom area of the buoy, and the four pressure gauges are distributed in a cross shape to measure the pressure of the surrounding water body.

[0033] The data processing module is located in the equipment compartment 5 below the buoy 8, and includes a built - in GNSS data processing unit, a filtering calculation unit, an attitude calculation unit, a sea surface height calculation unit (sea surface instantaneous height calculation unit), an environmental pressure data processing unit (draft depth calculation unit), and an attitude calculation unit; The data transmission module is located in the equipment platform 9 above the buoy 1. It has the function of Beidou short message service, and can transmit the measured sea surface height data and buoy status information to the monitoring service platform in real time. In addition, it also has the function of broadcasting PPP-B2b correction signals to the four-antenna GNSS receiver 1; The monitoring service platform can be accessed through a browser, and is responsible for receiving the real-time sea surface height data transmitted by the buoy, and providing the functions of displaying and analyzing real-time monitoring data; Exemplarily, the four-antenna GNSS receiver 1 transmits the received data to the GNSS data processing unit, and the GNSS data processing unit simultaneously receives the PPP-B2b correction signal data transmitted by the data transmission module; The GNSS data processing unit transmits the processed data to the attitude calculation unit, and the attitude calculation unit transmits the processed data to the sea surface height calculation unit. At the same time, the environmental pressure data processing unit sends the processed data of the barometer 3 and the pressure gauge 7 to the sea surface height calculation unit; The sea surface height calculation unit transmits the calculated instantaneous height and buoy status information, etc. to the filtering calculation unit, and the filtering calculation unit sends the processed data through the filtering algorithm to the data transmission module, and sends it to the monitoring service platform through the short message service data.

[0034] Another example is as Figure 3 As shown, the hardware of a deep-sea and far-sea sea surface height measurement system based on Beidou PPP-B2b provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes: a four-antenna GNSS receiver 1, a short message antenna 2, a barometer 3, a solar panel 4, an equipment cabin 5, a collision prevention fence 6, a pressure gauge 7, a buoy 8, and an equipment platform 9; The buoy 8 includes an integrated equipment platform 9 located above and an equipment cabin 5 located below; The four-antenna GNSS receiver 1, the short message antenna 2, the barometer 3, and the solar panel 4 are installed on the equipment platform 9; The solar panel 4 provides energy for the four-antenna GNSS receiver 1, the short message antenna 2, the barometer 3, and the pressure gauge 7; the short message antenna 2 can be used as a data transmission module.

[0035] The equipment cabin 5 is internally equipped with a data processing module; the pressure gauges 7 are arranged at the outer lower end of the equipment cabin 5, and there can be multiple; The collision prevention fence 6 is installed on the periphery of the equipment cabin 5.

[0036] The deep-sea and far-sea sea surface height measurement device based on Beidou PPP-B2b is signal-connected to an external monitoring service platform through the short message antenna 2.

[0037] This experiment was conducted in a certain test sea area in Qing. The water depth in this area is moderate and the sea conditions are complex, which can better simulate the environmental conditions of the deep and far - sea areas. After the buoy was assembled, it was deployed at sea. During the test period, the buoy performed stably without phenomena such as tipping, capsizing or violent fluctuations, verifying the reliability of the buoy structure and its ability to resist wind and waves. At the same time, a radar and a tide gauge were deployed in the test area as reference devices to verify the accuracy of the measurement results by comparison.

[0038] The four - antenna GNSS receiver at the top of the buoy receives the pseudorange and carrier - phase observations from multiple GNSS satellites in real - time. At the same time, it collects atmospheric pressure and water pressure data through a barometer and a pressure gauge. Using the precise orbit and clock - bias information provided by the Beidou PPP - B2b correction signal, the errors of the pseudorange and carrier - phase observations are corrected to ensure the positioning accuracy. Through the buoy attitude correction algorithm, based on the coordinate data of the four - antenna GNSS receiver, the tilt angle of the buoy is calculated, and the draft is calculated in combination with the data of the water pressure gauge and the barometer. After integrating the above data, a tidal chart is generated by the sea - surface height calculation unit (as shown in Figure 4 ). This chart clearly reflects the changing trend of the sea - surface height and is compared with the measurement results of the radar and the tide gauge, verifying the high - precision measurement ability of the present invention in the deep and far - sea areas.

[0039] To further improve the data quality, the Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (CEEMD) algorithm is used to denoise the sea - surface height data to eliminate the influence of swell and noise on the measurement results. As shown in Figure 5 the tidal chart after CEEMD filtering shows that the data noise is significantly reduced, and the changing trend of the sea - surface height is smoother and clearer. This result further verifies the data stability and reliability of the present invention under complex sea conditions and is consistent with the reference data of the radar and the tide gauge, demonstrating the measurement accuracy and practicality of the present invention.

[0040] The present invention has obvious advantages in positioning accuracy and data transmission mode. Especially in the open sea area without ground-based signal coverage, high-precision sea surface height measurement is achieved through the PPP-B2b precise point positioning technology of Beidou-3. The system realizes two-way communication through the Beidou short message function, ensuring the continuous operation and real-time data transmission of the measurement equipment in the deep and far sea environment, improving the intelligence and automation level of the system, and having important significance in the fields of ocean monitoring, ocean resource development, navigation safety, weather forecasting and environmental protection. Especially against the background of the intensification of global climate change and the prominent problem of sea level rise, accurate sea surface height measurement is crucial for ocean environmental monitoring, ocean disaster early warning (such as storm surges, tsunamis) and the protection of coastal infrastructure. This system fills the gap of traditional technologies in the deep and far sea. It not only supports ship route planning and navigation safety, helps to avoid risks, but also provides basic sea surface information for deep-sea oil and gas development, wind farm construction, etc. At the same time, it provides long-term, stable and reliable data support for global climate change monitoring, ocean environmental protection and deep-sea scientific research, promoting the development of global ocean science and industry.

Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
