DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a thorough understanding of this specification. However, this specification can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without violating the scope of this specification. Therefore, this specification is not limited to the specific implementations disclosed below.

[0026] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, etc. may be used to describe various information in one or more embodiments of this specification, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other.

Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining".

[0027] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for detecting a transmission tower grounding defect according to some embodiments of this specification is shown, which specifically includes the following steps.

[0028] Step 101: obtaining physical loss parameters of the grounding body of the transmission tower and a target reflected wave corresponding to a target ultrasonic wave passing through the grounding body; In some embodiments, the execution entity (e.g., a pre-defined computing device) of the method for detecting defects in the grounding body of a transmission tower (e.g., a pre-defined computing device) can connect to a target device via a wired or wireless connection. The method then obtains physical loss parameters of the grounding body of the transmission tower and a target reflected wave corresponding to a target ultrasonic wave passing through the grounding body. The physical loss parameters include cross-sectional loss rate and equivalent impedance change rate. Physical loss parameters may refer to various parameters measured as changes in the physical properties of the grounding body of the transmission tower due to physical wear or natural corrosion, for example. For example, the physical loss parameters may include cross-sectional loss rate and equivalent impedance change rate. The cross-sectional loss rate may refer to the ratio of the current loss of cross-sectional area of the grounding body to the intact cross-sectional area. The equivalent impedance change rate may refer to the ratio of the change in equivalent resistance due to cross-sectional area loss to time. When measuring the grounding body of a transmission tower, a common ultrasonic device such as a piezoelectric transducer can be used to excite an ultrasonic guided wave signal, which is then propagated along the grounding body. When the ultrasonic wave encounters a defect, it is reflected. The reflected ultrasonic wave signal is collected and processed based on the reflected signal and the target ultrasonic wave to determine the grounding body defect.

[0029] It should be noted that the above-mentioned wireless connection methods may include but are not limited to 3G / 4G / 5G connection, WiFi connection, Bluetooth connection, WiMAX connection, Zigbee connection, UWB (ultra wideband) connection, and other wireless connection methods currently known or to be developed in the future.

[0030] Step 102: Preprocess the target reflected wave to obtain a signal to be measured.

[0031] In some embodiments, the target reflected wave may be pre-processed by the following steps: Step 1: Perform wavelet threshold denoising on the target reflection wave to obtain the denoised signal.

[0032] Part 2: Based on the blind source separation algorithm, the denoised signal is subjected to interference removal processing to obtain the signal to be measured.

[0033] Wavelet threshold denoising is a signal processing technique based on the wavelet transform. Its core concept is to decompose the signal into subbands of different frequencies and exploit the differences in the characteristics of noise and valid signals in the wavelet domain (such as different amplitude distributions) to suppress noise. Furthermore, wavelet threshold denoising not only achieves multi-resolution representation of the signal through wavelet decomposition, improving noise suppression capabilities, but also captures local features in the time and frequency domains, preventing them from affecting subsequently acquired time, frequency, and time-frequency domain features. Blind source separation is a signal processing technique that does not require prior knowledge of signal mixing or source signal characteristics. It can isolate the original independent source signals from multiple mixed observation signals and remove multipath reflection interference. Using wavelet threshold denoising and blind source separation algorithms, it is possible to remove noise and reduce interference while preserving as many local features in the time and frequency domains as possible, making subsequent signal processing in the time and frequency domains more accurate.

[0034] Step 103: Extract features from the signal to be measured to obtain a variety of feature information.

[0035] In some embodiments, feature extraction from the signal under test can yield various types of feature information, including time-domain feature information, frequency-domain feature information, and time-frequency domain feature information. Feature information can refer to data extracted from the signal for different directions, fields, spatial domains, and so on. Different feature information can represent information in different dimensions of the signal, thereby enabling data analysis of the signal in different aspects.

[0036] In some optional implementations, feature extraction is performed on the signal to be measured to obtain a variety of feature information, including: time domain feature extraction is performed on the signal to be measured to obtain a peak factor and waveform kurtosis; frequency domain feature extraction is performed on the signal to be measured to obtain a power spectrum centroid and harmonic distortion rate; time-frequency domain feature extraction is performed on the signal to be measured to obtain wavelet packet energy entropy and Cohen distribution cross-term energy; the peak factor, waveform kurtosis, power spectrum centroid, harmonic distortion rate, wavelet packet energy entropy and Cohen distribution cross-term energy are determined as a variety of feature information.

[0037] The combined parameters of peak factor, waveform kurtosis and wavelet packet energy entropy can better explain the abnormal discharge pulse and energy distribution at the corrosion point, that is, the analysis of local corrosion.

[0038] The combined parameters of harmonic distortion rate and power spectrum center of gravity can better explain the harmonics and resonant frequency shift caused by the increase in contact resistance, that is, to analyze whether the connection is loose.

[0039] The cross-term energy parameter of Cohen distribution can better explain the transient impact of fracture and the sudden increase of cross-interference energy, that is, the analysis of fracture or crack.

[0040] While the above parameters are commonly used in this field and their meanings are not explained in detail, their combination has been determined through extensive experimentation. Selecting this combination of parameters allows for a detailed analysis of grounding defects from multiple perspectives, thereby increasing the accuracy of the calculations in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0041] Step 104: Determine comprehensive defect information of the transmission tower grounding body based on the physical loss parameters and characteristic information.

[0042] In some embodiments, comprehensive defect information of the transmission tower grounding body may be determined based on the physical loss parameters and characteristic information through the following steps: The first step is to obtain the number of feature types of feature information, the preset first weights and feature initial values of each type of feature information, the test calibration values of each type of feature information determined through experiments, the historical standard deviations of each type of feature information determined based on historical data, the preset material attenuation coefficient, maximum allowable interface loss rate and equivalent impedance reference value corresponding to the grounding body, and the preset second weights for each physical loss parameter.

[0043] The first weight may refer to the preset weight of various types of characteristic information during calculation. The test calibration value may refer to the corresponding parameter value of various types of characteristic information under normal circumstances determined by the test. The historical standard deviation may refer to the standard deviation of the parameter value obtained in each previous calculation and the test calibration value. The material attenuation coefficient may refer to the physical quantity of the degree of signal loss after the signal passes through the grounding body. The material attenuation coefficient can be measured. The maximum allowable interface loss rate may refer to a preset threshold value of the interface loss rate. Once the threshold is exceeded, the grounding body cannot continue to work normally and a scrapping plan needs to be implemented. The equivalent impedance reference value may refer to a preset impedance value under normal circumstances. The second weight may refer to the respective weights of each physical loss parameter in the final calculation score, and this data is set based on experience.

[0044] The second step is to calculate a defect score based on the number of feature types, the first weight, the initial value of the feature, the test calibration value, the historical standard deviation, each physical loss parameter, the corresponding second weight, the feature information, and the preset first calculation formula. The defect score can refer to the score calculated for the defect according to the above method. This score can be used to analyze the response based on preset simple indicators. For example, the defect score can range from 0 to 100, and different response measures can be taken for different defect score scores.

[0045] As an example, the first calculation formula includes:

[0046] in, S represents the defect score, n Indicates the number of feature types, wi Indicates the i The first weight of the feature information, F i Indicates the i The initial value of the characteristic information, μ i Indicates the i The experimental calibration value of the characteristic information, σ i Indicates the i The historical standard deviation of the characteristic, λ represents the material attenuation coefficient, L represents the cross-sectional loss rate, L max represents the maximum allowable section loss rate, Z cur It represents the rate of change of equivalent impedance, and Z represents the reference value of equivalent impedance.

[0047] in, Calculating the Euclidean distance of multiple feature information deviations from the normal state can reflect the abnormality of the defect, thereby performing a first-level judgment analysis of the grounding body.

[0048] The sensitivity of high impedance changes is magnified, and the combined effects of cross-sectional loss and impedance changes are combined to conduct a second-angle judgment and analysis of grounding defects.

[0049] The first calculation formula obtained by combining the two methods can, on the one hand, reflect the abnormality of the defect by calculating the Euclidean distance of multiple characteristic information deviations from the normal state; on the other hand, it amplifies the sensitivity of high impedance changes and combines the combined effects of cross-sectional loss and impedance changes to conduct a second-angle judgment and analysis of the defects of the grounding body. This can perform a multi-level analysis of the defects of the grounding body and obtain more accurate analysis results.

[0050] The third step is to determine the defect level of the transmission tower grounding body based on the defect grading index corresponding to the material of the grounding body and the defect score.

[0051] Defect grading indicators can be preset to judge the severity of defects based on different materials and determine their defect levels. This allows for a simple and clear display of defects, making it easier for users to perform actions corresponding to the defect level, such as replacement or targeted maintenance.

[0052] For example, when the material is copper, defects can be classified into the following four levels:

[0053] When the material is galvanized steel, the determination of its defects is similar to that of copper, but the specific data are different.

[0054] The fourth step is to generate comprehensive defect information based on the defect score and defect level.

[0055] Comprehensive defect information may refer to comprehensive information generated based on the defect score and defect level. The comprehensive information may include, but is not limited to, any one or a combination of the following: numbers, graphics, tables, symbols, strings, videos, audio, or other content that can represent the defect score and defect level.

[0056] The beneficial effects of one of the embodiments of the present specification include at least: obtaining the physical loss parameters of the grounding body of the transmission tower and the target reflected wave corresponding to the target ultrasonic wave passing through the grounding body, pre-processing the target reflected wave to obtain a signal to be measured; performing feature extraction on the signal to be measured to obtain a variety of feature information including time domain feature information, frequency domain feature information and time-frequency domain feature information, and determining the comprehensive defect information of the grounding body of the transmission tower based on the various physical loss parameters and feature information, so as to accurately determine the relevant information of the defects of the grounding body of the transmission tower.

[0057] In some embodiments, the above method also includes: when it is determined that there is a defect in the grounding body of the transmission tower, obtaining the transmission timestamp and first frequency tag corresponding to the target ultrasonic wave, and the reception timestamp and second frequency tag corresponding to the target reflected wave; calculating the transmission and reception delay of the target ultrasonic wave and the target reflected wave based on the transmission timestamp, reception timestamp, first frequency tag and second frequency tag; performing time domain analysis on the transmission and reception delay to calculate the location information of the defect.

[0058] The transmit / receive timestamp can refer to the time of transmitting the target ultrasonic signal / receiving the target reflected wave signal. The timestamp can be recorded based on a preset frequency and set as needed. The first / second frequency tag can refer to the frequency tag corresponding to multiple frequency bands of the target ultrasonic signal / target reflected wave signal. Through the corresponding first / second frequency tag, the corresponding band of the target ultrasonic signal / target reflected wave signal can be screened out, and then the time from transmitting the target ultrasonic wave to receiving the target reflected wave, that is, the transmit / receive delay, can be calculated based on the corresponding band. Based on the transmit / receive delay, the location information of the defect can be calculated, increasing the analysis angle of the grounding defect.
