Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of power engineering monitoring, and particularly to a method and system for monitoring the settlement of transmission towers based on laser scanning measurement technology. Background Art
[0002] As a key supporting structure of the power transmission network, the stability of transmission towers is directly related to the safe operation of the power system. The settlement of towers is one of the important factors affecting their structural stability. Traditional settlement monitoring methods mainly rely on manual measurement, which have problems such as low efficiency, limited accuracy, poor real-time performance, and insufficient safety. With the development of laser scanning technology, it has become possible to use laser scanning for high-precision and automated measurement. However, how to achieve long-term, stable, and reliable monitoring in practical applications, especially in remote areas or harsh environments, is an urgent problem to be solved.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN118548854A provides "A Method and System for Monitoring the Inclination of Transmission Towers", which relates to a method and system for monitoring the inclination of transmission towers, including a solar panel, a 4G data processing center, and a tension sensor. The tension sensor is installed between the insulator and the transmission tower. The method includes: constructing a three-dimensional model for monitoring the transmission tower, obtaining cable material information, and constructing a finite element analysis model of the cable; obtaining the cable tension data of each transmission tower, and retrieving the corresponding tower monitoring tension data; querying the three-dimensional model for monitoring the transmission tower, retrieving the cable layout parameters of the transmission tower and the basic coordinates of the sensor, and constructing a group of tension analysis equations based on the cable layout parameters of the transmission tower and the tower monitoring tension data; constructing a group of position analysis equations to generate the result of monitoring the inclination of the transmission tower. By constructing a three-dimensional model for monitoring the transmission tower and recording historical data in the model, during the monitoring process, the inclination angle of the transmission tower is calculated by analyzing the tension data, improving the effectiveness of monitoring the inclination of the transmission tower. However, the transmission tower inclination monitoring system mainly focuses on the inclination angle of the transmission tower and mainly relies on tension data and three-dimensional models, which may not comprehensively reflect the settlement situation of the transmission tower. Moreover, the transmission tower inclination monitoring system is more suitable for relatively stable geographical environments. In complex terrains or harsh environments, the monitoring results of the inclination monitoring system may be greatly affected.
[0004] Chinese patent document CN118377015A provides "A Transmission Tower Inclination Monitoring System Based on 3D Imaging Technology". The system includes: a tower remote monitoring terminal, which is used to observe a transmission tower by carrying on a drone and using synthetic aperture radar to obtain N SAR single-look complex images, and perform imaging on the basis of the N SAR single-look complex images by using SAR tomography technology to obtain a transmission tower image; an information transmission module, which is used to encrypt and transmit the transmission tower image data obtained by the tower remote monitoring terminal to the tower remote monitoring platform; a tower remote monitoring platform, which is used to compare and analyze the obtained transmission tower image with the original transmission tower image data to obtain the tower inclination angle. This invention collects the transmission tower image based on 3D imaging technology, without the need to arrange monitoring equipment and manual operations on site, which can greatly improve the monitoring efficiency and reduce the labor cost, especially for areas with complex terrain and dangerous conditions where it is difficult for humans to enter. This system uses a drone and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology to monitor the inclination of the transmission tower, mainly focusing on the inclination angle of the transmission tower. Depending on image data and inclination angle analysis, it cannot comprehensively reflect the settlement situation of the tower. Moreover, the inclination monitoring system based on 3D imaging technology may be limited in real-time performance due to its dependence on drone flight and data processing, and it is difficult to achieve true real-time monitoring.
[0005] Chinese patent document CN116481494A provides "A Method and System for Monitoring the Inclination of a Tower", which relates to the technical field of tower monitoring. The monitoring method includes S1: obtaining a real-time first tower inclination angle collected by an inclination sensor; S2: processing the real-time first tower inclination angle according to a trained neural network to obtain a real-time second tower inclination angle; wherein, the neural network is trained by a historical first tower inclination angle collected by the inclination sensor and a historical second tower inclination angle collected by a lidar, and the collection time of the historical first tower inclination angle is the same as the collection time of the historical second tower inclination angle. This invention uses the real-time second tower inclination angle to characterize the current inclination degree of the tower, which can remove the interference caused by the offset of the inclination sensor itself and improve the accuracy of monitoring the tower inclination. This system uses a neural network and an inclination sensor to monitor the inclination of the tower. Although it can process real-time inclination angle data, its monitoring results mainly depend on the processing of the neural network, and there may be certain limitations in processing speed and real-time performance. The tower inclination monitoring system based on a neural network and an inclination sensor has advantages in removing sensor offset interference and improving monitoring accuracy, but its disadvantages such as a single monitoring range, strong dependence on data acquisition and processing, insufficient real-time and dynamic monitoring capabilities, incomplete early warning mechanism, and insufficient multi-factor response capabilities make it limited in comprehensively evaluating the safety status of the tower.

[0029] In a specific embodiment, the laser scanner 100 is selected as the Riegl VZ-400i laser scanner 100, which has a high-precision three-dimensional laser scanning function. This scanner can emit laser beams and receive reflected signals for scanning transmission towers and the surrounding terrain. Its technical parameters include: the horizontal scanning range is 360 degrees, the vertical scanning range is 270 degrees, the measurement accuracy reaches ±1 mm, and the scanning speed is as high as 100,000 points per second. This device can be installed on the top of the transmission tower or a suitable position to ensure that it can comprehensively scan the key parts of the tower and the surrounding terrain. In addition, the Riegl VZ-400i is equipped with protection measures such as waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and high-temperature resistance, and can work all-weather in various harsh environments to ensure the accuracy and reliability of data.
[0030] In a specific embodiment, the data acquisition module 200 is selected as the National Instruments (NI) cDAQ-9185, which is a high-performance data acquisition module 200. This module can acquire the measurement data of the laser scanner 100, including information such as distance, angle, and intensity. Its sampling rate can be set according to the monitoring requirements, for example, acquiring data once or multiple times per second to ensure the real-time and integrity of the data. The cDAQ-9185 uses high-speed data transmission interfaces such as USB 3.0 and Ethernet to ensure the efficiency and stability of data acquisition. The design of this module enables it to be seamlessly integrated with a variety of sensors and devices, and is suitable for various complex data acquisition tasks.
[0031] In a specific embodiment, the data transmission module 300 is selected as the Cisco IR1101 Integrated Services Router, which has a powerful data transmission function. It can transmit the acquired data to a remote server or the monitoring center 500, and supports multiple transmission methods to adapt to different environmental requirements. In terms of wired transmission, optical fibers or Ethernet cables are used, which are suitable for areas with network coverage; while in terms of wireless transmission, wireless communication technologies such as 4G / 5G, LoRa, and satellite communication are used, which are especially suitable for remote areas or areas without network coverage. In addition, the Cisco IR1101 also integrates an efficient data compression algorithm, which can reduce the amount of transmitted data, improve the transmission efficiency, and set up a data backup mechanism to ensure the reliability and integrity of data transmission.
[0032] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the data processing module 400 is selected as the Leica GeoMoS Monitor, which is a professional device for data processing and analysis. It can process and analyze the received data to calculate the settlement amount of the tower.
[0033] In a more specific embodiment, the processing performed by the data processing module 400 includes a data preprocessing unit, a coordinate conversion unit, a settlement calculation unit, and an anomaly detection unit.
[0034] 1. The data preprocessing unit is used to perform denoising and calibration processing on the received data to obtain preprocessed scan data, so as to improve the data quality. In the process of settlement monitoring of transmission towers, data denoising and calibration are key steps to ensure the accuracy and reliability of monitoring data.
[0035] 1.1. In terms of data denoising, it is necessary to select a suitable filtering method according to the characteristics of the data. For the settlement monitoring data of transmission towers, which are usually time series data, more suitable adaptive filtering and wavelet filtering are selected. They can effectively remove noise and retain the main features of the signal, and are applicable to non-stationary signals. If there is Gaussian noise and white noise in the data, mean filtering (i.e., smoothing filtering) can handle it better. By calculating the neighborhood average value to smooth the signal and reduce noise. For data containing salt-and-pepper noise and impulse noise, median filtering can effectively remove these noises and retain the edge features of the signal. After selecting the filtering method according to the actual situation of the transmission tower, use the signal processing library in MATLAB or Python to denoise the original settlement data, and evaluate the denoising effect by comparing the data before and after denoising to ensure that no new errors are introduced during the denoising process; 1.2. In terms of data calibration, it is first necessary to determine the calibration type. For the data monitored by radar, radiometric calibration is necessary, which converts the original radar echo value into the surface reflectivity to eliminate the influence caused by factors such as different times and weather. For the data monitored by GPS or other positioning devices for settlement monitoring, geometric calibration is particularly important, which corrects the geometric distortion caused by the sensor position and terrain to ensure the spatial consistency of the data. In addition, surface calibration considers the surface characteristics and removes the influence of ground features on the radar signal, which is applicable to the monitoring data in complex terrain or vegetation-covered areas. Since the Riegl VZ-400i laser scanner 100 applied in the present invention is used for data monitoring, the calibration type is geometric calibration. Use the geometric calibration tool in ENVI software to adjust the data to eliminate distortion. Finally, evaluate the calibration effect by comparing the data before and after calibration to ensure the accuracy of the calibration process; 2. The coordinate transformation unit is communicatively connected to the data preprocessing unit and is used to transform the preprocessed scan data into a unified coordinate system, such as the geodetic coordinate system, to ensure the consistency and comparability of the data and obtain the data after the coordinate system is unified. Transforming the scan data into a unified coordinate system (geodetic coordinate system) is a key step to ensure the consistency and comparability of the data. In the settlement monitoring of transmission towers, the commonly used unified coordinate system is the geodetic coordinate system (also known as the geographic coordinate system), which is based on the Geodetic Coordinate System.
[0036] The following are the detailed steps and formula principles of coordinate transformation: The geodetic coordinate system uses longitude (Longitude, λ), latitude (Latitude, φ), and height (EllipsoidalHeight, h) to describe the position of any point on the earth. The geodetic coordinate system is based on a reference ellipsoid (such as WGS84), which simulates the shape and size of the earth.
[0037] 2.1. From the scan device coordinate system to the earth-centered coordinate system: The scan device (laser scanner 100) usually has its own local coordinate system and needs to be transformed into the earth-centered coordinate system (ECEF) first. The transformation process includes the following steps: A. Translation: Translate the origin of the scan device to the center of the earth.
[0038]
[0039] In the formula, is the coordinate of the scan device coordinate system, is the translation amount.
[0040] B. Rotation: Rotate the local coordinate system of the scan device to the same direction as the earth-centered coordinate system.
[0041]
[0042] In the formula, is the selection matrix, usually composed of three rotation angles (pitch angle, roll angle, yaw angle).
[0043] C. Scaling: Adjust the scaling ratio of the coordinates as needed.
[0044]
[0045] In the formula, is the scaling factor.
[0046] 2.2. From the earth-centered coordinate system (ECEF) to the geodetic coordinate system, the transformation formula is as follows:
[0047] In the formula, are the coordinates in the geodetic coordinate system; are the coordinates in the geocentric coordinate system; is the second eccentricity, and the calculation formula is ; is the auxiliary angle, and the calculation formula is ; is the horizontal component of the geocentric distance, and the calculation formula is ; is the semi-major axis of the ellipsoid (in the WGS84 ellipsoid, = 6378137 m); is the semi-minor axis of the ellipsoid (in the WGS84 ellipsoid, = 6356752.314245 m); is the first eccentricity, and the calculation formula is .
[0048] 3. The settlement calculation unit is communicatively connected to the coordinate conversion unit and is configured to calculate and obtain the settlement amount of the iron tower by using the differential calculation method according to the data after the coordinate system is unified; specifically, the differential method calculates the displacement of the key points of the iron tower by comparing the scanning data of different periods, and specifically includes the following steps: 3.1. First, perform data alignment: First, the scanning data of different periods need to be aligned to the same geodetic coordinate system. This is usually achieved through coordinate conversion, translation, and rotation to ensure that the two periods of data are compared in the same reference system. After converting the scanning data to the geodetic coordinate system, the data is already in the same reference system, so they can be directly compared. The formula is as follows:
[0049] In the formula, are the coordinates of the original geodetic, is the translation amount, which is used to correct the systematic error between the two periods of data.
[0050] 3.2. Perform displacement calculation: For each key point, calculate its displacement at different times. The formula is as follows:
[0051] In the formula, is the displacement amount of the key point, are the coordinates of the key point at the first time point, are the coordinates of the key point at the second time point.
[0052] 3.3. Finally, perform settlement amount calculation: The settlement amount is the vertical component of the displacement. Assume that the vertical direction is For the shaft, the settlement calculation formula is as follows:
[0053] In the formula, is the settlement amount, is the coordinate of the key point at the first time point, is the coordinate of the key point at the second time point.
[0054] Through a high-precision laser scanner (such as Riegl VZ-400i with an accuracy of ±1 mm) and a differential algorithm, the system of the present application can capture the millimeter-level settlement changes of the key points of the iron tower in real time, which is significantly better than traditional manual measurements (such as total stations or levels), solving the problems of low efficiency and insufficient accuracy of traditional methods, and is particularly suitable for power facilities sensitive to minute settlements.
[0055] 4. The anomaly detection unit is communicatively connected to the settlement calculation unit and is configured to compare the calculated settlement amount of the iron tower with a preset settlement amount threshold. When the settlement amount exceeds the preset settlement amount threshold, an alarm mechanism is triggered to timely remind relevant personnel to handle it; 4.1. The threshold is set as follows: The factors for setting the settlement threshold include the design parameters of the iron tower, geological conditions, historical monitoring data, safety standards, etc., and it is expressed as:
[0056] In the formula, is the finally set settlement threshold, is the threshold based on the design parameters of the iron tower, is the threshold based on the geological conditions, is the threshold based on the historical monitoring data, is the threshold based on the safety standards.
[0057] 4.2. Anomaly detection (threshold comparison) is as follows: Compare the obtained by calculating the settlement amount with the preset settlement threshold: Judgment condition:
[0058] If , it is determined that the settlement of the transmission tower is abnormal and the alarm mechanism is triggered; if , it is determined that the settlement of the transmission tower is normal and continuous monitoring is continued.
[0059] The transmission tower settlement monitoring system based on laser scanning measurement technology provided by this application adopts an integrated protection design that is waterproof, dustproof, and resistant to high and low temperatures, and an automated data processing process for denoising, coordinate transformation, and settlement calculation. It can work continuously in harsh environments (such as rain, snow, haze) without manual intervention. Advantages: It overcomes the defects of manual monitoring restricted by weather and geographical conditions, and ensures the continuity and reliability of monitoring.
[0060] In one embodiment, the monitoring center 500 selects the device model Honeywell HC900 Hybrid Controller, which is a powerful monitoring and data display device. It can receive and display the processed scanning data, realize real-time monitoring of the tower settlement situation, and issue an alarm in case of anomalies. Honeywell HC900 Hybrid Controller provides an intuitive graphical interface, and users can clearly view key information such as the settlement curve of the tower and the displacement of key points. When the settlement amount exceeds the preset threshold, the system will promptly notify relevant personnel through multiple methods such as text messages, phone calls, and emails to ensure that countermeasures can be taken quickly. In addition, the device also has a data storage function, which can save historical monitoring data for subsequent analysis and query, providing reliable data support for the long-term health monitoring of the tower.
[0061] In one embodiment, as Figures 5-7 shown, the transmission tower settlement monitoring system based on laser scanning measurement technology provided by this application further includes a power supply system. The power supply system is communicatively connected to the laser scanner 100, the data acquisition module 200, the data transmission module 300, the data processing module 400, and the monitoring center 500; further, the power supply system includes a solar power generation device, a wind power supply device, a mains power supply device, and a backup power supply. The solar power generation device, the wind power supply device, the mains power supply device, and the backup power supply are connected through an intelligent power switching device; adopting a hybrid power supply scheme (solar, wind, mains + energy storage), combined with intelligent power management (such as OutBack Power SkyBox), ensures long-term stable operation in remote areas or areas without power grid coverage, solves the power supply problem of traditional monitoring equipment in power-off or power-failure scenarios, and improves the system adaptability.
[0062] In a specific embodiment, the power supply system selects the device model OutBack Power SkyBox Hybrid Inverter, which is an intelligent device integrating multiple power supply methods and power management functions. In terms of power supply methods, it supports solar power supply, is suitable for areas with sufficient sunlight, and is equipped with a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller to ensure efficient energy conversion; it supports wind power supply, is suitable for areas rich in wind resources, and is equipped with a voltage stabilizing device to ensure stable output voltage; at the same time, it also supports mains power supply, is suitable for areas with mains power supply, and is equipped with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to ensure that the system can continue to operate in case of power failure. In addition, the SkyBox Hybrid Inverter is equipped with a lithium battery pack or a lead-acid battery pack as a backup power source to ensure that the system can continue to operate in the absence of sunlight, wind or power failure; preferably, a voltage stabilizing device is connected to the total output terminal of the power supply system, and an overload protection device is connected in series on the circuit of the power supply system. In terms of power management, the SkyBox Hybrid Inverter adopts an intelligent power switching device to achieve seamless switching between different power supply methods; it is equipped with a voltage stabilizing device to ensure stable power supply voltage for each module of the system; and an overload protection device is set to prevent damage to the device due to excessive current.
[0063] In a more specific embodiment, the transmission tower settlement monitoring system provided by the present application based on laser scanning measurement technology is implemented as follows: First, the laser scanner 100 scans at a preset time interval, and the data acquisition module 200 collects the scanned data in real time. The collected data is transmitted to a remote server or monitoring center 500 through a wired method (such as optical fiber or Ethernet cable) or a wireless method (such as 4G / 5G, LoRa, satellite communication, etc.). Then, the data processing module 400 processes the received data, including data preprocessing (such as denoising, calibration), coordinate transformation (transforming to a unified coordinate system), and settlement calculation (calculating the settlement amount of the iron tower using algorithms such as differential method and point cloud registration), and triggers an alarm mechanism when the detected settlement amount exceeds the preset threshold.
