Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of marine environmental monitoring, and in particular, to an integrated monitoring system based on a marine observation buoy. Background Art
[0002] A marine buoy is an automatic marine hydrological, water quality, and meteorological device mainly composed of an observation buoy anchored at sea. It can collect the required water quality and other data for research, offshore oil (gas) development, port construction, and national defense construction according to specified requirements for a long time and continuously. In particular, it can collect data that is difficult to collect and data on sea conditions. Among them, marine environmental monitoring plays a role in marine ecological environmental protection and the monitoring of marine environmental elements. The main monitoring items include: observations of water depth, water temperature, salinity, ocean current, wave, water color, transparency, sea ice, sea glow, etc. Usually, a marine buoy is used to monitor the marine environment. In the prior art, for the related technology of marine environmental monitoring, reference can be made to a Chinese patent with the application number CN202411761037.6, which discloses a comprehensive marine current monitoring system based on a marine observation buoy, including a buoy main body module, a net buoyancy adjustment module, a motion state prediction module, a buoy deviation evaluation module, a buoy motion optimization module, and a data transmission module. Among them, the modules are electrically connected to each other; the buoy main body module is equipped with various sensors to collect marine environmental physical parameters. Through the collaborative work of the motion state prediction module and the buoy motion optimization module, the system can predict and adjust the motion state of the buoy to reduce the data acquisition error caused by environmental changes, thereby improving the accuracy of the data, providing a solid data foundation for marine scientific research, and through the motion state evaluation module, the abnormal motion state of the buoy can be detected in time, and the state of the buoy can be quickly adjusted through the motion optimization module to ensure the continuity and accuracy of the data. It solves the problem that the net buoyancy of the buoy will change with the change of the diving depth, which in turn affects the hovering performance and depth control accuracy of the buoy. For the problem of net buoyancy change, how to analyze the diving depth and net buoyancy of the buoy, predict the motion state of the buoy, and optimize and adjust the control parameters to reduce the influence of the change of the buoy's net buoyancy on the depth control accuracy.
[0003] The inventor found the following problems in the prior art during the implementation of this application: In the prior art, in order to ensure the continuous operation of the equipment, the buoy generally uses a hybrid power supply method. Usually, the buoy uses a combination of solar photovoltaic panels and storage batteries for power supply. Due to the unpredictable sea weather, the combined power supply of solar photovoltaic panels and storage batteries is unstable. Therefore, there are certain limitations in the endurance, and external power supply is required. In addition, traditional buoys mostly use ordinary steel or plastic, which are prone to electrochemical corrosion or ultraviolet aging when exposed to seawater and salt spray environments for a long time, resulting in a decrease in structural strength. Moreover, due to the unreasonable design of the buoy's center of gravity or the insufficient strength of the anchor chain system, the buoy is prone to displacement due to waves.
