During the day, especially in the period with strong solar radiation in summer, the solar panels 1 collect solar energy with the highest efficiency. The converted electric energy is transmitted to the lead-acid batteries 3 through cables. The capacity of the lead-acid batteries 3 is at least 100 ampere-hours, which can store a large amount of electric energy when solar energy is sufficient for use at night, on cloudy days, or when solar energy is insufficient in winter. The lead-acid batteries 3 are equipped with an intelligent charge and discharge management system to ensure the effective storage and efficient utilization of electric energy under different environmental conditions.The monitoring system includes a laser snow depth sensor 2, a temperature sensor group, a data collector 5, and a temperature controller 4; there are three groups of temperature sensors, which are arranged at intervals along the longitudinal direction of the runway structure on both sides and the longitudinal axis of the runway structure; and each temperature sensor group includes a plurality of temperature sensors 12, and the plurality of temperature sensors 12 are arranged at intervals vertically in the gravel soil cushion layer 11 and the water-stable macadam layer 10; the temperature sensors 12 are electrically connected to the data collector 5, and the temperature sensors 12 transmit the temperature data monitored in real time to the data collector 5; the data collector 5 is connected to the temperature controller 4, and the data collector converts the resistance signal into temperature; the temperature controller 4 is electrically connected to the first resistance wire layer 7, the second resistance wire layer 9, the temperature sensors 12, and the lead-acid battery 3 respectively. The temperature controller is used to monitor the temperature threshold and start and stop heating. It adjusts the current flowing through the first resistance wire layer 7 and the second resistance wire layer 9 by receiving the data of the temperature sensors 12; the temperature sensors 12 monitor the subgrade temperature in real time. The temperature sensors 12 can work under extreme temperature conditions, and the measurement accuracy is ±0.1 degree Celsius, ensuring the high precision and reliability of the temperature data; the temperature sensors 12 transmit the temperature data monitored in real time to the temperature controller 4 through cables. When the temperature controller 4 detects that the subgrade temperature drops below a preset safety threshold, such as 0 degree Celsius, it will automatically activate the first resistance wire layer 7 and the second resistance wire layer 9. The first resistance wire layer 7 and the second resistance wire layer 9 convert the electrical energy stored in the lead-acid battery 3 into heat energy, conduct heat to the subgrade, and gradually increase the subgrade temperature to prevent the subgrade from freezing and causing frost heave phenomena.

[0025] The temperature controller 4 has an intelligent adjustment function. According to the real-time temperature data fed back by the temperature sensor 12, it dynamically adjusts the heating intensity of the first resistance wire layer 7 and the second resistance wire layer 9. When the subgrade temperature approaches or reaches the safety threshold, the temperature controller will reduce or turn off the heating power of the resistance wire, ensuring the energy use efficiency of the system and avoiding overheating. The laser snow depth sensor 2 is installed near the runway structure to measure the snow depth on the surface of the concrete pavement layer 8. The laser snow depth sensor 2 is connected to the data acquisition instrument 5 through telecommunication to transmit the collected signal to the data acquisition instrument 5. The laser snow depth sensor 2 continuously monitors the snow condition on the runway surface. The laser snow depth sensor 2 uses phase laser ranging technology and can measure the snow depth with millimeter-level accuracy, and the maximum measurement range can reach 5 meters. The laser snow depth sensor 2 detects in real time whether there is snow accumulation on the runway surface and determines whether to start the snow melting program according to a preset snow depth threshold, such as 1 centimeter. When the laser snow depth sensor 2 detects that the snow depth exceeds the set threshold, it will immediately transmit the signal to the data acquisition instrument 5 through a cable, and the data acquisition instrument 5 further transmits the signal to the remote control center. After receiving the signal from the laser snow depth sensor 2, the remote control center transmits the feedback information to the temperature controller 4, and the temperature controller 4 controls the start of heating the runway surface and the subgrade below by the first resistance wire layer 7 and the second resistance wire layer 9. The heat generated by the resistance wire is quickly conducted to the runway surface to melt the snow, ensuring the cleanliness and safety of the runway surface. After the snow melts, the temperature controller 4 will automatically stop the heating operation of the resistance wire to prevent unnecessary energy consumption. The data acquisition instrument 5 and the temperature controller 4 are wirelessly transmitted and connected to the remote control center through an IoT card. The remote control center is used for remote monitoring, adjusting temperature settings, viewing data, and receiving alarms. The signal wireless transmitter 6 is installed on both sides of the runway structure and is used to transmit the data in the monitoring system to the remote control center. The signal wireless transmitter 6 uses a GPRS wireless network for data transmission, has a low-power design, can continuously work under extreme conditions, and can maintain independent operation for 72 hours when the external power supply is insufficient. The remote control center can monitor the temperature and snow condition of the runway in real time and make corresponding decisions based on the data, such as adjusting the settings of the temperature controller 4 or starting and stopping the resistance wire, etc.
