Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of atmospheric physics and ocean electric field technology, and in particular to an offshore electric field detection device based on corona current measurement, which is used for real-time monitoring of sea surface electric field intensity and improving electric field measurement accuracy and equipment reliability through dynamic correction of multiple environmental parameters. Background Art
[0002] Lightning activity is a direct product of dramatic changes in the atmospheric electric field. Land lightning detection technology has been relatively mature after decades of development. Fixed electric field instrument networks and ground-based radar systems can realize real-time monitoring and early warning of lightning activity, and predict the charge distribution of thunderstorm clouds by measuring the gradient changes in the ground electric field intensity. However, the development of lightning detection technology in marine environments is seriously lagging behind. According to statistics, global marine lightning activities are frequent and the intensity is significantly higher than that on land. At present, the prediction of marine thunderstorms mainly relies on the monitoring of changes in the electric field intensity of the sea surface. The existing technology has significant defects in the field of real-time detection of the sea surface electric field. The existing technology mostly relies on monitoring ships carrying mobile electric field detection equipment to conduct intermittent sampling in local sea areas, and indirectly infer the charge distribution of thunderstorm clouds by measuring the electric field intensity of the sea surface. This method consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, has high detection costs, and is limited by speed and maneuverability, making it difficult to achieve large-scale, long-term continuous monitoring. What's more serious is that ships need to return to port to avoid the wind in bad weather, resulting in interruption of data collection, and this period is exactly the high incidence stage of lightning activity. Drones equipped with micro electric field sensors can quickly reach the target sea area, but their flight time is usually less than 2 hours, and their wind resistance is limited to less than level 5. In severe convective weather, drones are prone to falling into the sea due to rain and turbulence. The actual application scenarios are extremely limited. Although traditional buoy-type monitoring devices can be deployed at fixed points, they focus more on conventional parameters such as wind speed and water temperature, and there is no detection equipment specifically for electric field strength. A few studies use anchored buoys to integrate electric field sensors, but their designs have fundamental defects. Traditional spherical electric field probes are easily covered by salt spray, resulting in decreased corona discharge stability and large drift errors in measured data. The attitude changes caused by the buoy's fluctuations with the waves will significantly change the distance between the probe and the sea surface, generating false electric field signals. The buoy lacks the ability to synchronize multi-parameter corrections, and cannot remove environmental interference such as wind speed and salt spray concentration, resulting in low data credibility. Data is transmitted wirelessly, and due to the limitations of wireless communication equipment, the transmission distance is limited, and only offshore electric field detection can be performed. The above technical defects seriously restrict the application of key scenarios such as marine thunderstorm warning and lightning path prediction. It is necessary to develop a high-precision offshore electric field detection equipment that is resistant to environmental interference, can be self-powered for a long time, and supports dynamic correction to fill the technical gap in the field of marine lightning monitoring. It is very necessary to detect offshore electric fields in the distant seas and study the changes in electric field intensity gradients to predict thunderstorm weather through Beidou short message remote data transmission.

By using data compression and Beidou encrypted transmission technology, it realizes ultra-long-distance data transmission. The device adopts a composite power supply system of photovoltaic cells and wave generators in cooperation with a storage battery for power supply to achieve long-term endurance.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The electric field intensity is dynamically corrected through the salt spray concentration, wind speed, platform height, and inclination, and the error is greatly reduced. The anti-salt spray design of the corona probe adopts a gradient structure, a hydrophobic coating, and a tungsten alloy coating to effectively prevent the probe from being eroded by seawater. The adaptive filtering band-stop filter based on the ocean wave spectrum eliminates the 0.1 - 0.3 Hz low-frequency interference. Through the dynamic correction formula and Kalman filtering, the error of electric field intensity calculation is ≤5%; the composite power supply system can still work continuously under the condition of no light. The Beidou encrypted short message transmission is adopted, and the data backhaul is not restricted by distance, realizing ultra-long-distance data backhaul. The equipment cost is low, and it can be batch deployed in the open sea area. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

If the purpose of the detection is to study the free floating trajectory of the floating platform 1 with ocean waves and ocean currents and randomly detect the electric field intensity of the ocean, the cable 13 and the anchor 14 can be not set.
[0018] The tip of the corona probe 2 is a tungsten alloy needle-like structure with a diameter ≤ 0.1 mm, installed at the top of the bracket 11. The tip of the corona probe 2 adopts a multi-stage gradient structure, and the diameter gradually shrinks from 2 mm to 0.1 mm from the root to the tip. The tungsten alloy tip is processed by electron beam polishing, and the surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.05 μ m, and is coated with a salt spray-resistant tungsten alloy film layer on the surface.

When the platform swing frequency is greater than 0.2Hz, the wave generator is started, and when the battery switch has a remaining power of less than 20%, the non-core module is turned off.
[0021] The corona current detection module 41 measures the corona discharge current of the corona probe 2 and calculates the sea surface electric field strength through the corona current detection module 41. E . Corona discharge occurs near the tip electrode. When the electric field strength is high enough, the gas molecules are ionized, generating a large number of positive ions and secondary electrons, forming a self-sustaining discharge. The corona discharge current is nonlinearly positively correlated with the electric field strength. By measuring the corona discharge current, the magnitude of the electric field strength can be inferred. The data processing unit 5 performs signal filtering, compression and outlier marking algorithms on the detection data of the detection unit 4 to calculate the electric field strength on the sea surface. E . Calculate the electric field strength from the corona current E , calculated using the following formula: , in, α The correction coefficient is 0.5~0.8, n is the number of free electrons per unit volume (unit: m −3 ), at standard atmospheric pressure, the number of free electrons in air is n About 10 9 m −3 ,q is the elementary charge (1.602×10 −19 Coulomb), μ is the electron mobility (the electron mobility in air is approximately 1.3×10 −4 m 2 / V⋅s), A is the effective area of the probe (unit: m 2 ).
[0022] The swaying of the floating platform 1 will accelerate the air flow, and the wind speed v affects the electric field through two mechanisms, changing the electron mobility μ which is positively correlated with the wind speed, accelerating the diffusion of salt aerosol, and affecting the free electron density n . Therefore, it is necessary to correct the electric field strength E . The influence of the air salt fog concentration, wind speed, and the attitude of the floating platform 1 on the electric field strength is corrected using the following formula: , where: is the change in height Δ h ( t ) between the corona probe 2 and the sea surface caused by the up and down fluctuations of the floating platform 1, h 0 is the characteristic scale of corona discharge, h 0 is the characteristic decay scale describing the change of the electric field strength with height, and its physical essence is related to the vertical distribution characteristics of the atmospheric electric field. h 0 determines the influence degree of the platform height fluctuation Δ h ( t ) on the electric field measurement. The larger h 0 , the slower the attenuation of the electric field with height (the environmental electric field distribution is more uniform); h 0 The smaller, the more significant the attenuation of the electric field with height (the electric field is concentrated in the near-sea area). The h 0 in the marine environment is usually 10 - 50 meters, and is closely related to the following factors: atmospheric conductivity (salt fog and humidity increase conductivity, which may increase h 0 ); space charge distribution (the thickness of the charge layer under thunderstorm clouds affects the vertical gradient of the electric field); turbulent mixing (turbulent diffusion in the marine boundary layer leads to the homogenization of the electric field distribution). is the correction for the swaying angle, θ ( t ) is the tilt angle of the platform; is the correction for the wind speed, v ( t ) is the wind speed, β is the empirical coefficient, taking 0.1, v 0 is the reference wind speed, taking 1 m / s; is the salt spray correction, c ( t ) is the salt spray concentration, and the coefficient γ takes 0.2, and the reference concentration c 0 = 1 mg / m 3 .
[0023] In the above correction, the acceleration detection module 46 obtains the height change Δ of the corona probe 2 h ( t ) The core principle of the sensor of the acceleration detection module 46 to measure the up and down undulating height is to deduce the displacement change through the integral operation of acceleration and eliminate the error by combining the dynamic compensation algorithm. According to Newton's second law F = ma , Newton's second law and acceleration integral, the acceleration detection module 46 obtains the instantaneous acceleration by measuring the inertial force received by the mass a , and the displacement change Δ can be obtained through two integral operations h , which is calculated by the following formula: represents the displacement Δ h is the acceleration a with respect to time t of the second integral result. The three-axis attitude detection module 47 obtains the platform tilt angle θ ( t ). The wind speed detection module 45 obtains the wind speed v ( t ). The salt spray detection module 42 obtains the salt spray concentration c ( t ). h 0 , β , γ are determined by fitting laboratory simulation or on-sea measured data. Substitute the correction factor into the formula to dynamically calculate the corrected electric field strength E co , and use Kalman filtering to suppress high-frequency noise.
[0024] The data processing unit 5 adopts the STM32H7 processor, integrating the filtering, algorithm, compression and abnormal value marking of electric field strength, salt spray concentration, seawater conductivity, temperature, wind speed, acceleration, and triaxial attitude. All components of the data processing unit 5 are integrated on a PCB board and placed in a sealed cabin using a melt-sealed package. The data processing unit 5 obtains the original data from the detection unit 4, removes noise using the sliding average and Kalman filter algorithms to improve data accuracy, and uses the bit splicing method to compress data, reduce the amount of data, reduce the workload of the communication module, and improve transmission efficiency. The data processing unit 5 is equipped with an adaptive filtering module, which adopts a band-stop filter based on the wave spectrum, and the center frequency is locked at 0.1~0.3Hz to eliminate the low-frequency interference signal caused by the wave movement, and effectively suppress the electric field measurement error caused by the platform shaking. The data processing unit 5 identifies and marks abnormal data through the sliding window median or the isolation forest algorithm to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data. The Beidou satellite communication module 6 obtains the coordinate position, marks the timestamp, and transmits it to the data processing unit 5. The data processing unit 5 packages the processed data with the coordinate position and time information into a complete data packet, compresses it into a binary packet, and sends it through the Beidou satellite communication module 6 short message.
[0025] The data processing unit 5 has built-in coordinated power supply and low-power sleep mode, which can automatically start all detection modes according to the set start threshold, and automatically enter the sleep mode when it is lower than the start threshold, only perform corona current detection, and shut down other non-core modules. The start threshold is based on 1.5 to 2 times the average current detected by the corona current detection module 41 in sunny weather. The data processing unit 5 has a built-in self-diagnosis protocol. If the battery is abnormal or the sensor fails, the fault code is actively reported through a short message.
[0026] It is encrypted with AES-256 and transmitted through the Beidou RDSS channel. The capacity of a single message is 1200 bytes. A short message is sent every 5 minutes. The electric field strength data, air salt spray concentration and platform coordinates are transmitted through short messages. The monitoring center generates a thermal map based on the returned electric field strength and air salt spray concentration and the Beidou coordinate superposition data.

[0030] The present invention is a one-way communication detection device, that is, the electric field strength result detected by the offshore electric field detection device is transmitted back through the Beidou short message. The monitoring center receives and demodulates the transmitted data through the Beidou navigation system, and the monitoring center cannot send instructions to the offshore electric field detection device. Using the present invention, the detection device can be placed in a preset sea area by a ship, and multiple devices can form a detection network. The data is transmitted back through the short message of the Beidou navigation system, and data can be transmitted back as long as the area covered by the Beidou navigation system is applicable to the detection of the electric field strength in the open sea.
