Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of aeromagnetic detection technology, and in particular to a real-time aeromagnetic anomaly measurement and analysis method and system for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Background Art
[0002] Human magnetic sources are various types of metal components or metal-containing components with ferromagnetic characteristics formed in human production and life. They are magnetized under the action of the geomagnetic field to produce induced magnetic fields and remanent magnetic fields, which are called human magnetic sources. Faced with the rescue needs in disaster environments, the application technology of near-surface human magnetic source detection has not yet been studied and applied. Human magnetic source detection technology is a technology that uses highly sensitive magnetic sensors to measure the weak magnetic field generated by ferromagnetic materials. It has unique environmental adaptability. Its measurement performance will not be weakened by complex natural environmental factors such as rain, snowfall, or burial. Moreover, magnetic detection technology adopts a non-contact passive detection mechanism, which can capture weak magnetic anomaly signals released by static or dynamic ferromagnetic targets in various disaster scenarios. At present, for weak signals in rescue scenarios, existing technologies cannot effectively extract them. In addition, during the rescue process, the magnetic detection system is easily interfered by the magnetic field of the drone itself. For this reason, we propose a real-time aerial geomagnetic anomaly measurement and analysis method and system for drones. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] The present invention provides a technical solution: S1: Based on the environmental adaptability of the core components of the atomic gas chamber and laser light source that affect the accuracy of the magnetometer, the volume and power consumption boundaries of the atomic gas chamber under the project accuracy requirements are analyzed, and combined with experimental corrections, the volume and power consumption are optimized. The frequency and power of the laser are stabilized by developing a high-precision temperature control circuit, and the atomic spectral line signal is used to further stabilize the laser frequency.
[0026] S2: Use numerical and physical simulation methods to conduct forward modeling of different types of magnetic components, realizing a method process that combines field measurement, simulation, and simulation, and classifying different magnetic objects under different disaster scenarios, such as human accessories, practical tools, housing items, and other magnetic objects;
[0027] S3: Conduct a comparative study on anomaly separation effects by comparing bandpass filtering, interpolation cutting, sliding average, trend analysis, artificial intelligence recognition and other means, and select the optimal anomaly separation method in emergency rescue scenarios based on the results of magnetic anomaly feature analysis;
[0028] S4: Real-time data reception from aeromagnetic detection devices, standardized magnetic survey data compensation, data preprocessing, data processing and conversion, shallow magnetic anomaly extraction, magnetic body positioning and range delineation, real-time drawing of various magnetic anomaly maps, geographic map overlay analysis and output of result maps;
[0029] The atomic magnetometer system in S1 has a static sensitivity of 20pT / Hz1 / 2@1Hz, a measurement range of 20,000nT to 80,000nT, a data integration accuracy greater than 99%, and a data transmission delay of less than 1s.
[0030] The data processing time of the magnetic detection device in S4 is less than 10 minutes, the target resolution is greater than 0.2m, the single-function data processing response time is less than 3 seconds, and the data mapping response time is less than 10 seconds;
[0031] The atomic magnetometer in S1 uses a low-power, small-volume vertical cavity surface laser as its light source. The light source quality is optimized through atomic spectral lines and high-precision temperature control technology to improve the measurement accuracy, stability and sensitivity of the atomic magnetometer.
[0032] In this embodiment, the miniaturized magnetometer was optimized: Based on project requirements (static sensitivity ≥ 20pT / Hz¹ / ²@1Hz, measurement range 20,000nT to 80,000nT), the minimum volume and power consumption of the atomic gas chamber were determined through theoretical calculations. Twenty sets of experiments were conducted within a temperature range of -20°C to 50°C to calibrate the gas chamber parameters. A low-power vertical-cavity surface mount laser (VCSEL) was used as the light source, and a high-precision temperature control circuit (temperature control accuracy ±0.05°C) was developed to stabilize the laser frequency. Real-time feedback adjustment using atomic spectral line signals ensured light source stability.
[0033] Sensor integration: The high-precision locator uses RTK mode to achieve a horizontal / vertical positioning accuracy of 0.1m; the altimeter monitors the drone's height above the ground in real time with an error of ±3cm; and the magnetic compensator uses a preset compensation algorithm for geomagnetic field fluctuations to reduce background interference.
[0034] Data acquisition parameters: The magnetic measurement acquisition system is set to a sampling rate of 200 Hz, a data integration accuracy target of >99%, and a transmission delay of <1s;
[0035] Magnetometer optimization verification: The optimized magnetometer was tested in a laboratory environment simulating the magnetic field interference of a debris flow. The results showed that the static sensitivity reached 21pT / Hz¹ / ²@1Hz, meeting the index requirements.
[0036] Magnetic characteristic simulation: Numerical simulation software (such as COMSOL) is used to conduct forward analysis of magnetic objects such as metal farm tools and vehicles in debris flow scenarios. Combined with physical simulation (building scaled models), 100 sets of magnetic characteristic data are generated to construct a scenario-based magnetic characteristic library.
[0037] Optimization of anomaly separation algorithm: The collected magnetic exploration data was processed using bandpass filtering, interpolation cutting, and artificial intelligence recognition (based on convolutional neural networks (CNN)). Comparison found that the CNN algorithm had the highest accuracy rate (98.5%) for identifying weak magnetic anomalies, making it the optimal method.
[0038] Real-time data processing: The drone conducted a grid-like survey of the affected area at a speed of 12m / s and an altitude of 80m. The aeromagnetic detection device received real-time magnetic, positioning, altitude, and video data. After the magnetic compensator eliminated the geomagnetic field interference, the data was processed through standardized preprocessing, shallow magnetic anomaly extraction (using the Euler deconvolution algorithm), and magnetic body positioning. The total data processing time took 7 minutes, and the target resolution reached 0.18m. Finally, the magnetic anomaly map was superimposed on the satellite map to generate a visual map of the results.
[0039] For weak magnetic signals, research on magnetic anomaly identification and extraction technology based on human magnetic source disaster environments, solve technical problems such as magnetic compensation for drones under strong magnetic fields, study human magnetic source signal enhancement processing methods suitable for application scenarios with strong interference in complex disaster environments, and select the optimal processing method that can effectively extract weak magnetic characteristic signals and suppress noise signals;
