[0002] Safety monitoring of power operation sites is an important link in the power industry to ensure the safety of operators and the standardization of operations. Power operations usually involve high-voltage environments, high-altitude operations, and complex power equipment operations. Operators need to strictly abide by safety regulations when performing tasks to reduce risks such as electric shock, falls, and equipment damage. With the development of intelligent monitoring technologies, methods based on computer vision, sensor fusion, and big data analysis have been widely applied in the field of power operation safety monitoring to improve the intelligent management level of the operation process.

[0003] Existing power operation safety monitoring technologies mainly rely on traditional video surveillance and manual inspections to supervise the violation behaviors of operators and the safety status of operations. However, the traditional monitoring methods have the following limitations: on the one hand, relying solely on video surveillance is easily affected by environmental factors such as light changes and occlusions, resulting in a decrease in monitoring accuracy; on the other hand, the manual inspection method has hysteresis and subjective judgment errors, making it difficult to detect abnormal situations in a timely manner. In addition, although some intelligent monitoring methods have introduced computer vision technologies, there are still technical bottlenecks in multi-target tracking, human pose recognition, and environmental risk analysis, and they cannot meet the high-precision monitoring requirements of complex power operation sites.

[0004] Current power operation safety monitoring technologies have problems such as insufficient accuracy, low real-time performance, and late warning in target detection and tracking, human operation pose analysis, and environmental risk perception. Especially when the tracking of operators is lost due to factors such as pose changes and occlusions, existing methods are difficult to maintain a stable monitoring effect.

[0051] Figure 2 The following is a flowchart of a safety monitoring method for a power operation site based on multi-object tracking according to an embodiment of the present invention. As can be seen from the figure, the method includes the following steps: Step 1: Data collection Deploy a variety of sensors at the power operation site to collect information on operators, tools, equipment, and the environment.

[0052] The visible light camera is used to collect RGB images of the operation site, and the resolution is set to 1920×1080; The infrared thermal imager collects the temperature status of the equipment to monitor whether there is overheating; The WiFi sensing device uses channel state information (CSI) for non-contact posture detection of operators; The lidar obtains 3D point cloud data of the site to construct an operation scene model; Wind speed, temperature, and humidity sensors monitor the operation environmental conditions to evaluate the impact of weather on the operation.

[0053] Step 2: Target detection and tracking Use deep learning algorithms to perform target detection and multi-object tracking on operators, tools, and equipment at the operation site.

[0054] YOLOv8 model is used for target detection, and the output includes the category, location, and confidence of the target. For target tracking, the Transformer is combined with the target identity re-association (Re-ID) algorithm to ensure continuous tracking of the target in the scene.

[0064] Step 6: Operation Safety Training and Simulation Based on historical monitoring data, construct a VR simulation scenario for job training; Accident scene reconstruction: Based on actual accident data, simulate the accident occurrence process to improve personnel's emergency response capabilities; Demonstration of standard operation procedures: Provide drills for standard operation procedures to improve job compliance.

It improves the target recognition accuracy and reduces the influence of light and occlusion; it monitors violations in real time and reduces the risk of operation accidents; it enhances the effect of job safety training and improves personnel's safety awareness. The present invention adopts a variety of advanced technologies to realize the safety monitoring of the power operation site, providing an efficient and accurate intelligent management solution for the power industry.

[0066] To illustrate the implementation effect of the present invention in more detail, the following introduces an application example of the present invention in substation maintenance operations in combination with actual application scenarios.

[0067] Application background A 220 kV substation conducts annual maintenance operations, and the operation contents include primary equipment inspection, secondary equipment testing, high-voltage equipment replacement, etc. The operation site has relatively high risks and the following potential safety hazards exist: 1. When operating personnel work near high-voltage equipment, an electric shock accident may occur if the operation is improper; 2. Some personnel do not wear protective equipment such as insulating gloves and safety helmets as required; 3. During high-altitude operations, there is a situation where safety ropes are not used correctly; 4. The on-site environment is complex, and weather changes may affect operation safety.

[0068] To ensure the safety of maintenance operations, the substation introduces the safety monitoring method for power operation sites based on multi-target tracking proposed by the present invention to realize real-time monitoring and safety early warning of the operation process.

[0069] Implementation steps Step 1: Multi-modal data collection at the operation site Deploy RGB cameras, WiFi sensing devices, infrared thermal imagers, lidar, and environmental sensors at the substation site to collect information on operating personnel, tools, equipment, and the environment; RGB camera: Real-time collect the on-site video stream (resolution 1920×1080, frame rate 30 FPS) to obtain information on personnel and equipment; WiFi sensing device: Use channel state information (CSI) to detect the posture and movement trajectory of personnel; Infrared thermal imager: Monitor the temperature distribution of high-voltage equipment to determine whether there is a risk of overheating. LiDAR: Establish a three-dimensional point cloud model to assist in detecting the positions of operators and equipment. Wind speed, temperature and humidity sensors: Monitor weather conditions and evaluate the safety of operations in combination with historical data.

[0070] Step 2: Object detection and operation behavior analysis Operator detection and tracking: Use the YOLOv8+Transformer object tracking algorithm to detect the position of the operator and assign a unique identification ID. Combine Re-ID technology to ensure the identity consistency of personnel under multiple camera views.

[0071] Tool and equipment monitoring: Detect the correct use of tools such as insulating rods, wrenches, and grounding wires; detect high-voltage equipment to ensure its normal state.

[0072] Operator posture analysis: Combine WiFi CSI and deep neural network to detect whether the operator's posture meets the standard operation requirements. For example, when an abnormal operator posture is detected (such as standing unsteadily for a long time or falling), the system automatically triggers an alarm.

[0073] Step 3: Intelligent detection of illegal operations Identification of safety protection equipment Use a personal protective equipment (PPE) detection model to determine whether operators are wearing safety helmets, insulating gloves, etc. If it is found that a certain person is not wearing a safety helmet, the system automatically identifies and pushes an alarm message to the management personnel.

[0074] Detection of illegal high-altitude operations Use posture recognition and electronic fence technology to detect whether high-altitude operators are correctly wearing safety ropes; the electronic fence delimits a safety area.
