Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the fields of geophysics and related computer science and technology, and in particular to a LS+CNN combined prediction method for UT1-UTC that takes into account effective angular momentum. Background Art

[0002] UT1-UTC (the difference between Universal Time and Coordinated Universal Time) is a key indicator in the Earth Rotation Parameters (ERP), reflecting the unevenness of the Earth's rotation rate. UT1 represents astronomical time based on the Earth's rotation, while UTC is the international standard time based on atomic time. Changes in UT1-UTC directly affect the accuracy and reliability of fields such as the Global Positioning System, satellite navigation, astronomical observations, and geophysical research. For example, in satellite navigation, the accuracy of UT1-UTC directly affects the precise calculation of satellite orbits and positioning accuracy; in geophysical research, changes in UT1-UTC can be used to analyze the Earth's internal dynamic processes and the impact of climate change.

[0003] Currently, UT1-UTC forecasts mainly rely on linear models and numerical analysis methods. Linear models are usually based on historical observational data and predict future values by fitting long-term trends and cyclical changes. For example, the UT1-UTC prediction model released by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) is mainly based on the least squares (LS) method and time series analysis methods. The Earth's rotation is affected by multiple factors, including the exchange of angular momentum in the atmosphere, ocean, mantle, and interior of the Earth. However, existing UT1-UTC prediction models often ignore the combined effects of these angular momentum exchanges. Although some studies have attempted to incorporate atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) and oceanic angular momentum (OAM) into the models, these studies generally only consider a single factor and lack a comprehensive analysis of angular momentum exchange.

[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] The impact of land-water angular momentum (HAM) and sea-level angular momentum (SLAM) on UT1-UTC forecasts has not been fully considered in existing technologies. This incomplete consideration of angular momentum exchange limits the accuracy and reliability of UT1-UTC forecasts.

[0051] With the continuous advancement of Earth rotation observation technology, the amount and accuracy of UT1-UTC observation data have increased significantly. However, existing forecasting methods have significant shortcomings in adapting to high-precision, high-frequency observation data. For example, while the least squares method can effectively extract long-term trends and cyclical changes, it performs poorly when dealing with nonlinear characteristics and short-term fluctuations. In addition, traditional time series analysis methods (such as the ARIMA model) have difficulty accurately capturing the changing patterns of UT1-UTC when faced with the complex dynamics of Earth's rotation, resulting in large forecast errors.

[0052] In recent years, deep learning technology has made significant progress in time series forecasting, particularly in handling complex nonlinear relationships and large-scale data. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs), as powerful feature extraction tools, can automatically learn hidden patterns and regularities in input data and have been successfully applied to time series forecasting in various fields, including meteorology and finance. However, research on the application of CNN technology to UT1-UTC forecasting is still in its infancy and has not yet fully integrated the physical background of Earth's rotational dynamics.

[0053] Effective angular momentum (EAM) is a comprehensive reflection of the exchange of angular momentum between the atmosphere, ocean, and mantle within the Earth system. It reflects the influence of interactions between Earth's various spheres on its rotation rate. Research has shown that changes in atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) are primarily caused by atmospheric circulation and air pressure distribution, while changes in ocean angular momentum (OAM) are closely related to ocean circulation and tidal processes. Land-water angular momentum (HAM) and sea-level angular momentum (SLAM) are related to rheological processes within the Earth's interior. These angular momentum exchange processes significantly drive variations in UT1-UTC.

[0054] Although existing research has recognized the impact of angular momentum exchange on UT1-UTC, most studies focus solely on a single angular momentum factor (such as AAM or OAM), ignoring the combined effects of these factors. Furthermore, existing research lacks a systematic analysis and optimization of the angular momentum weighting coefficients when incorporating angular momentum exchange into UT1-UTC forecast models. This incomplete consideration of angular momentum results in existing models failing to accurately reflect the dynamics of Earth's rotation, which in turn affects the accuracy of UT1-UTC forecasts.

[0055] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this application proposes a method for forecasting UT1-UTC using a LS+CNN combination that takes into account effective angular momentum. This method combines the least squares method (LS) and a convolutional neural network (CNN), and fully considers the combined effects of the atmosphere, ocean, land water, and sea level to establish a more accurate UT1-UTC forecast model. Specifically, this application incorporates the physical background of angular momentum exchange within the Earth system into the model by calculating effective angular momentum (EAM), while utilizing the nonlinear feature extraction capabilities of CNN to mine hidden patterns in the UT1-UTC time series. Through this combined method, this application aims to improve the forecast accuracy of UT1-UTC and provide a more reliable Earth rotation parameter forecast technology for applications in related fields.

[0056] This application provides a method for predicting parameters of the Earth's rotation rate (UT1-UTC) by combining the least squares (LS) method and a convolutional neural network (CNN) involving effective angular momentum, aiming to improve the forecast accuracy of UT1-UTC. This method combines the LS and CNN models and fully considers the impact of the EAM on UT1-UTC to improve the forecast accuracy and reliability of UT1-UTC parameters. The forecast method includes: obtaining UT1-UTC parameters and EAM sequences, performing data preprocessing on the UT1-UTC sequence, including subtracting leap seconds and tidal terms, to obtain the UT1R-TAI base sequence. Subsequently, an LS model and a CNN model are constructed. Finally, the LS fitting results are combined with the output of the CNN model to obtain a high-precision UT1-UTC forecast value. The LS+CNN combined model described in this application has high accuracy and reliability in medium- and long-term UT1-UTC forecasts. Compared with traditional methods, it can effectively overcome the shortcomings of traditional linear models in predicting UT1-UTC parameters and effective angular momentum, while also improving the forecast accuracy and stability of UT1-UTC. This method achieves high-precision medium- and long-term prediction of UT1-UTC, and provides a new method for predicting UT1-UTC parameters for fields such as navigation satellite orbit determination, astronomical observation, and geophysical research.

[0057] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a LS+CNN combined UT1-UTC forecasting method taking into account effective angular momentum is provided, including the following steps S1 to S11.

[0059] S1. Acquire a UT1-UTC basic data set and an effective angular momentum data set; the effective angular momentum data set includes: atmospheric angular momentum data, ocean angular momentum data, land water angular momentum data, and sea level angular momentum data.

[0060] In this example, the UT1-UTC basic data set and the related effective angular momentum data set are collected and organized. The UT1-UTC sequence comes from the IERS official website, and the effective angular momentum comes from the GFZ official website. It mainly includes atmospheric angular momentum (AAM), ocean angular momentum (OAM), land water angular momentum (HAM), and sea level angular momentum (SLAM) data.

[0061] First, the effective angular momentum data of AAM, OAM, HAM and SLAM are collected, and the UT1-UTC sequence with a time interval of 1 day (UT1-UTC basic dataset) is downloaded from the International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (IERS) website.

[0062] It is worth noting that historical data is used when training the model.

[0063] As an optional implementation, this embodiment may use the following method to collect data to collect the UT1-UTC basic dataset and the effective angular momentum dataset:

[0064] UT1-UTC basic dataset: obtained from the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS), with a data time span from January 1999 to April 2023, and a sampling interval of once a day.

[0065] Atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) data: Derived from the ERA5 global atmospheric reanalysis product, the data time span is consistent with the UT1-UTC data.

[0066] Ocean angular momentum (OAM) data: obtained from the GOCE ocean circulation model, the data time span is consistent with the UT1-UTC data.

[0067] Land water angular momentum (HAM) data and sea level angular momentum (SLAM) data: calculated through geophysical models, the data time span is consistent with the UT1-UTC basic data set. Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown.

[0068] Then, the data preprocessing steps are carried out, including deducting leap seconds from the UT1-UTC basic data set and calculating the effects of the Earth's solid tides, as well as interpolating the effective angular momentum data set. The specific steps include the following:

[0069] Step 1: Before forecasting the UT1-UTC series, it is necessary to deduct leap seconds and correct for the Earth's solid tides. Leap seconds are corrected using the value provided by the Earth's rotation center. The Earth's solid tide correction model is:

[0070]

[0071] Among them, δUT1 is the Earth solid tide correction term, B i ,C i They are given in the 7th and 8th columns of Table 8.1 of the 2010 IERS Convention Standards, α ij is the ith tide α in Table 8.1 j Integer multiples of α ij represents the basic angular coefficient of nutation, α j is the helio-lunar nutation parameter, j is listed from 1 to 5.

[0072] Step ②: Interpolate the collected effective angular momentum dataset into the same interval and time as the UT1-UTC basic dataset.

[0073] Interpolation of the effective angular momentum dataset involves interpolating the axial components of AAM, OAM, HAM, and SLAM to time intervals consistent with the UT1-UTC base dataset; and merging the interpolated angular momentum components to form a unified time series. Preprocessing of the UT1-UTC base dataset includes deducting leap seconds and correcting for Earth's solid Earth tides.

[0074] S2. Convert the UT1-UTC basic data set into the excitation domain to obtain a geodetic angular momentum sequence.

[0075] In this example, the preprocessed UT1R-TAI parameter sequence (preprocessed results of the UT1-UTC basic data set; UT1R-TAI parameters = (UT1-UTC) - leap second - Earth solid tide correction) is converted to the excitation domain to obtain a geodetic angular momentum sequence. The UT1R-TAI parameter sequence can be converted to the excitation domain using the Liouville equation, as shown below:

[0076]

[0077] UT1R is the universal time after further correcting the periodic tidal changes on the basis of UT1, TAI represents atomic time, UT1R-TAI is the sequence obtained by preprocessing UT1-UTC, Ψ is the geodetic angular momentum function, Ω is the average angular velocity of the Earth, which is 7.292115×10-5rands-1; t represents UTC time.

[0078] S3. Subtract the effective angular momentum data set from the geodetic angular momentum sequence to obtain a geodetic angular momentum residual.

[0079] S4. Performing least square fitting on the geodetic angular momentum residual and the effective angular momentum data set respectively to obtain a geodetic angular momentum residual fitting sequence and an effective angular momentum fitting sequence.

[0080] Based on the construction of the linear model: In this embodiment, the geodetic angular momentum residual and the data set after the interpolation of the effective angular momentum data set are respectively subjected to least squares fitting to obtain the geodetic angular momentum residual fitting sequence and the effective angular momentum fitting sequence, and the formula is:

[0081]

[0082] Among them, χ(t) represents the least squares fitting result, a k represents a constant, a k+1represents the linear term, t represents the UTC time, k is [0,7], i represents the segment number of the least squares fitting, C i and D i represents the coefficient corresponding to the periodic term, R i Indicates the periodic term. The periodic terms considered in the fitting process include annual swing, semi-annual swing, 1 / 3 annual swing, and 13.7-day swing. The values are usually 1 year, 1 / 2 year, 1 / 3 year, and 13.7 / 365 years. i represents zero-mean white noise.

[0083] In this embodiment, when constructing a linear model and using LS to fit the effective angular momentum, the constructed linear model periodic terms include annual swing, semi-annual swing, 1 / 3 annual swing, and 13.7-day swing, which are usually taken as 1 year, 1 / 2 year, 1 / 3 year, and 13.67 / 365 years.

[0084] S5. Subtract the geodetic angular momentum residual fitting sequence from the geodetic angular momentum residual to obtain a geodetic residual difference value.

[0085] S6. Subtract the effective angular momentum fitting sequence from the effective angular momentum data set to obtain an effective angular momentum residual sequence.

[0086] S7. Extrapolate the geodetic angular momentum residual fitting sequence and the effective angular momentum fitting sequence respectively by using the least square method to obtain a geodetic angular momentum residual fitting extrapolation sequence and an effective angular momentum fitting extrapolation sequence.

[0087] S8. Input the effective angular momentum residual sequence and the geodetic residual difference into the trained neural network model respectively to obtain effective angular momentum residual prediction data and geodetic residual difference prediction data.

[0088] The training process of the convolutional neural network model includes:

[0089] A training UT1-UTC basic dataset and a training effective angular momentum dataset are obtained; the training UT1-UTC basic dataset is converted to an excitation domain to obtain a geodetic angular momentum sequence; the geodetic angular momentum sequence is subtracted from the effective angular momentum dataset to obtain a geodetic angular momentum residual sequence; the geodetic angular momentum residual sequence and the effective angular momentum sequence are fitted using least squares to obtain corresponding fitting terms and residual terms, respectively; the obtained residual terms are used as input sequences for a CNN model; the training residual sequence is normalized to obtain normalized data; and the CNN model is trained using the normalized data to obtain a suitable CNN model.

[0090] In this embodiment, the residual sequence is used to construct a CNN model and perform parameter training. The specific training process of the CNN model is as follows:

[0091] (1) Normalization: Normalize the residual sequence to a suitable range (such as [0, 1] or [-1, 1]) to improve the convergence speed of the model.

[0092] (2) Construct a CNN model. Based on the characteristics of the residual sequence of geodetic angular momentum and effective angular momentum fitting, a suitable CNN model structure is constructed through network training. The model usually includes the following parts:

[0093] Convolutional layer: used to extract local features from the residual sequence. Multiple convolutional layers can be set, each using a small-sized convolution kernel (such as 3×3).

[0094] Pooling layer: used to reduce the dimension of features and reduce the amount of computation. Usually, maximum pooling or average pooling is used.

[0095] Fully connected layer: combines the features extracted by the convolutional layer and the pooling layer to output the final prediction result.

[0096] The convolution layer of the CNN model in this embodiment is set to 3 layers, the size of each convolution kernel is 3×3, the pooling layer adopts maximum pooling, and the number of neurons in the fully connected layer is adjusted according to the cross-validation results. The CNN model is trained using historical data, and the network parameters are optimized by the back propagation algorithm. The mean square error (MSE) is used as the loss function, the model performance is evaluated through cross-validation, and the hyperparameters (such as learning rate, number of convolution kernels, number of layers, etc.) are adjusted to improve the generalization ability of the model. The error statistics after training in this embodiment are as follows Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown.

[0097] S9. Add the effective angular momentum fitting extrapolation sequence to the effective angular momentum residual prediction data to obtain an effective angular momentum prediction result.

[0099] S11. Add the effective angular momentum prediction result to the geodetic angular momentum residual prediction result to obtain a geodetic angular momentum prediction result; and use the Liouville equation and the effects of leap seconds and the Earth's solid tides to obtain a final UT1-UTC prediction result.

[0100] Finally, the accuracy of the forecast results is evaluated by comparing the mean absolute error (MAE) with the international standard sequence Bulletin A. The accuracy evaluation standard of the UT1-UTC parameter is based on the following formula:

[0101]

[0102] Among them, MAE j is the accuracy of the jth time series, n is the length of the time series, i is the length of the predicted time series, P i is the i-th forecast value, O i is the i-th true value.

[0103] This embodiment uses a combined LS+CNN model to fully leverage the advantages of both, taking full advantage of the interpretability of linear models while also introducing deep learning's powerful modeling capabilities for complex time series data. Specific effects and benefits include:

[0104] Improving UT1-UTC Forecast Accuracy: This embodiment significantly improves UT1-UTC forecast accuracy by utilizing a combined LS+CNN method that takes effective angular momentum into account. Traditional methods (such as least squares and time series analysis) have limitations when dealing with complex nonlinear changes and short-term fluctuations. This embodiment combines the linear fitting capabilities of the least squares method with the nonlinear feature extraction capabilities of convolutional neural networks to more accurately capture the complex variations in UT1-UTC time series. Experimental results demonstrate that the method of this embodiment performs well in medium- and long-term (e.g., quarterly to annual) forecasts, significantly reducing forecast errors compared to traditional methods.

[0105] Enhance the generalization ability of the model: This embodiment significantly enhances the generalization ability of the model through technical means such as data preprocessing, model training optimization and cross-validation. Specifically: data normalization eliminates the dimensional differences between different data sources and improves the training efficiency and stability of the model. The convolution layer and pooling layer of CNN can automatically extract local features and global features in the input data, and effectively capture short-term fluctuations and long-term trends in time series. Hyperparameters (such as learning rate, number of convolution kernels, number of layers, etc.) are optimized through cross-validation to ensure that the model has good performance on an independent test set. Experimental results show that the method of this embodiment performs better than the existing technology on an independent test set, and can adapt to changes in different time scales and different data characteristics.

[0106] Promoting the Development of Earth Rotation Parameter Prediction Technology: This embodiment proposes a new UT1-UTC prediction method that combines the advantages of traditional numerical analysis and deep learning techniques, providing a new technical means for high-precision prediction of Earth rotation parameters. This method is not only innovative in theory but also performs well in practical applications. By introducing the concept of effective angular momentum, this embodiment fully considers the impact of angular momentum exchange within the Earth system on UT1-UTC, overcoming the shortcomings of existing technologies that have insufficient consideration of angular momentum exchange. Furthermore, this embodiment provides new ideas and methods for research in related fields, promoting the development of Earth rotation parameter prediction technology.

[0107] In summary, this paper proposes a combined LS+CNN method for UT1-UTC forecasting that takes effective angular momentum into account. By combining the advantages of traditional linear models and deep learning techniques, this method significantly improves the UT1-UTC forecast accuracy and enhances the model's generalization capabilities. This paper not only provides high-precision Earth rotation parameter forecasting technology support for related fields but also promotes its development, possessing important scientific significance and practical application value.
