Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of measuring equipment, and in particular to a measuring equipment and a measuring method for detecting siltation volume in water with dense suspended matter. Background Art

[0002] In the field of underwater sediment detection, traditional measurement techniques mainly rely on two major methods: direct measurement and indirect calculation. Direct measurement methods involve using tools such as a sounding hammer or a sounding rod to determine the water depth by physically contacting the bottom of the water. Indirect calculation methods involve acoustic bathymetry, single-beam and multi-beam bathymetry techniques, which infer the water depth through the propagation time of sound waves or electromagnetic waves. However, these technologies have limitations when applied in waters with dense suspended matter, because suspended matter interferes with sound wave signals and affects measurement accuracy. In addition, existing technologies are inefficient in collecting and processing sediments, and often require additional cleanup work, which not only increases costs but also affects the environment. Summary of the invention
