Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of air quality monitoring within a region, and particularly relates to the fields of air quality monitoring methods and data processing technologies, as well as a detection device using the air quality detection system. Background Art

[0003] LORA is a low-power local area network wireless standard that can transmit over a longer distance than other wireless methods under the same power consumption conditions, achieving the unity of low power consumption and long distance, and having good performance in long-distance wireless communication.

[0004] Environmental noise, non-steady signals, and other interference factors can cause the monitoring data to be contaminated by noise, thereby reducing the accuracy of air quality monitoring.

[0005] Wavelet transform and empirical mode decomposition denoising algorithms, as common signal denoising methods, cannot adaptively represent multi-type data when there are various types of polluting gases in the monitoring data. Therefore, the traditional denoising methods cannot achieve good denoising effects in various monitoring scenarios. How to adaptively represent the monitoring data and cope with different noise situations has become the research focus of the present invention. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a portable air quality detection system and a detection device based on LORA, which have low cost, accurate measurement, simple structure, high efficiency, and long data transmission distance. The purpose is to quickly measure the air quality within a region and provide timely feedback, solving the problems existing in the related technologies: the current detection device has high cost, fixed monitoring points, and noise in the monitoring data.

[0007] To solve the problems in the background art, the technical solution adopted in the embodiments of the present application is as follows:

[0008] In the first aspect, a method for optimizing portable air quality monitoring data based on LORA is provided, including:

[0009] Obtaining the time series of noisy gas concentration at the monitoring location;

[0010] Performing improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise on the time series of gas concentration;

[0011] When the present invention selects the noise-dominated component and the effective signal-dominated component, it considers the characteristic differences existing in the two categories of components, and adaptively separates the noise-dominated component and the effective signal-dominated component, thereby obtaining a better separation result.

[0012] Preferably, the cross-validation method for separating the noise-dominated component and the effective signal-dominated component includes:

[0013] Check the length of the original data containing noise. If it is an odd number, add a zero at the end to make the number even, denoted as N. Divide the observation time series into odd samples and even samples. Take the odd samples as the filtering samples, and randomly sample the even samples as the identification samples. To preserve the high-frequency characteristics and global statistical characteristics of the original signal, the number of identification samples is taken as N1 = 0.1N. Perform improved complete adaptive noise ensemble empirical mode decomposition on the filtering samples to obtain N2 IMF components and a trend component. Assume that the sum of the IMF components from k (k = 1, 2, …, N2) to N2 is the denoised filtering value f’, and obtain the value f’(t2,i) at the corresponding time of the identification samples through cubic spline interpolation. Calculate the variance of the identification samples with respect to the filtering value: Calculate the mean value of the variances of W identification samples, and select the k value corresponding to the minimum average value. Since the filtering samples are half of the original data, take the IMF components from k + 1 to N2 after the decomposition of the original data as the dominant part of the effective signal of the original data.

[0014] Use the cross-identification method to distinguish the decomposed components of the signal into the dominant component of the high-frequency noise signal and the dominant component of the low-frequency effective signal. Apply the improved wavelet adaptive threshold method to the high-frequency noise components to remove high-frequency noise, and dynamically adjust the threshold according to the signal energy distribution to avoid over-smoothing or residual noise caused by the traditional fixed threshold.

[0015] Preferably, the improved wavelet adaptive threshold function includes:

[0016]

[0017] where δ is the noise variance and i is the decomposition level.

[0018] Apply singular value decomposition (SVD) to the low-frequency effective signal components to further extract the effective signal. Perform singular value decomposition on the low-frequency component matrix X to obtain the singular values and corresponding singular vectors of matrix X: Select the components with a singular value contribution rate greater than 90%, filter out the low-frequency ineffective components, and reconstruct the processed low-frequency part and high-frequency part to obtain the denoised gas concentration time series.

[0019] Through the above technical solution, generate a computer program for the data optimization method of the above-mentioned LORA-based portable air quality detection system and store it in the memory to be loaded and executed by the main control chip.

[0020] In a second aspect, provide a LORA-based portable air quality detection system, including:

[0021] Modular design, integrating an acquisition module, a LORA communication module, a power supply module, and a GPS module, and each of the modules is controlled by a main control chip.

[0024] In one embodiment, the GPS positioning module, the collection module, and the power module are respectively connected to the main control chip.

[0025] In one embodiment, the air quality detection system further includes a LORA wireless communication module for wireless communication with the external computer platform. The wireless communication module is respectively connected to the main control chip and the computer terminal, realizing wireless communication between the entire detection system and the computer.

[0026] In a third aspect, there is provided an efficient, low-cost, and portable detection device, including a housing and the air quality detection system provided in any of the above embodiments. The air quality detection system is installed in the housing.

[0048] It should be noted that currently, it is not known how to separate the noise-dominated component from the effective signal-dominated component.

The improved wavelet adaptive threshold function includes:

[0054]

[0055] Apply singular value decomposition (SVD) to the low-frequency effective signal component to further extract the effective signal. Perform singular value decomposition on the low-frequency component matrix X to obtain the singular values and corresponding singular vectors of the matrix X: Select the components with a singular value contribution rate greater than 90%, and filter out the low-frequency invalid components.
