The current asphalt pavement compaction control system has a single source of sensor data and only relies on vibration accelerometers or nuclear density meters. It lacks multi-source information fusion and dynamic modeling capabilities, resulting in insufficient compaction prediction accuracy and delayed control response.

[0036] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0037] 1. In the present invention, a vibration acceleration sensor, a temperature sensor, and an RTK differential GPS positioning terminal are first integrated into a data acquisition module, and the multi-source data are transmitted to the data processing module using the CAN bus protocol. The wavelet analysis unit, the IIR filter unit, and the feature extraction unit in the data processing module preprocess and extract features from the data, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the data. In particular, the temperature data is correlated with the effective value (RMS) of the vibration acceleration through the Kalman filter to generate a composite feature vector for use in the subsequent control algorithm, thereby achieving high-precision feature extraction. This mechanism solves the problem of insufficient prediction accuracy caused by a single sensor data source, making the compaction degree prediction more accurate and adaptable to complex working conditions. A hardware trigger mechanism is used to synchronize data acquisition between sensors. When the master sensor acquires data, a trigger signal is sent to other slave sensors via a trigger signal line, causing them to synchronize data acquisition. Microsecond or even nanosecond synchronization can be achieved, which has the advantages of high accuracy and strong reliability. It solves the problem that the frequency and time of data acquisition by multiple sensors are different, the data synchronization is poor, and the fused data cannot accurately reflect the compaction state, affecting the accuracy of control decisions, thereby making the compaction degree prediction more accurate.

[0038] 2. In the control algorithm module, the support vector machine unit, hidden Markov model unit, and BP neural network unit work together to predict compaction and generate the optimal control strategy based on the processed composite feature vector. These three units are responsible for classification, sequence modeling, and nonlinear mapping tasks, respectively. The FPGA accelerator achieves millisecond-level response, ensuring the real-time and stability of the system. This multi-model collaborative decision-making approach not only improves the accuracy of compaction prediction but also enables rapid adjustment of roller parameters (such as vibration frequency, amplitude, and rolling speed), thereby achieving adaptive control. This overcomes the control response lag problem in existing technologies and greatly improves construction quality and resource utilization.

[0039] 3. In the feedback control module, the adaptive PID control algorithm is used to perceive the system status in real time and dynamically adjust the proportional (P), integral (I), and differential (D) parameters. This solves the problem that the fixed-parameter PID control algorithm cannot accurately adjust the compaction parameters under different asphalt material properties, environmental conditions, and construction equipment, and adapts to changes in complex working conditions.

[0043] 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. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-3 , a multi-sensor fusion asphalt pavement intelligent compaction closed-loop control system, including data acquisition module, data processing module, control algorithm module, feedback control module and user interaction interface. The data acquisition module is the basis of the entire system, responsible for obtaining real-time data from multiple sensors and transmitting this data to the data processing module through the CAN bus protocol.

[0045] Specifically, it includes vibration acceleration sensor, temperature sensor and RTK differential GPS positioning terminal. The vibration acceleration sensor adopts high-sensitivity MEMS technology and works based on piezoelectric effect or capacitance effect. When the vibration wheel is subjected to periodic excitation force, the crystal inside the sensor produces polarization, causing the charge to flow in a directional manner on the crystal surface, thereby generating a voltage signal. The IEPE piezoelectric acceleration sensor is selected, and its parameters are axial sensitivity 10.24mV / (m / s 2 ), measuring range ±50g, maximum lateral sensitivity <5%, weight about 28g, working voltage 18-30VDC, working current 2-10mA, installed at the axis position of the vibration wheel to ensure accurate capture of the dynamic changes of the vibration wheel.

[0046] The temperature sensor uses non-contact infrared temperature measurement technology to determine the temperature of the object being measured by measuring its thermal radiation. The captured infrared radiation energy is converted into an electrical signal and then calibrated to obtain the temperature value. The ABSD-01A series temperature sensor was selected. Its parameters are working power supply 24VDC, maximum current 30mA, output signal 0~5V, temperature measurement range 0~300℃, response time 150ms. It is installed in the key parts of the roller to ensure accurate monitoring of the working environment temperature.

[0047] The RTK differential GPS positioning terminal achieves centimeter-level precision positioning by receiving signals from multiple satellites and combining them with the differential correction information provided by the ground base station. The selected model uses the Zhongheda intelligent compaction system, which consists of a GNSS antenna, a 3G antenna, a differential antenna and a power adapter. It supports microelectronics technology, wireless communication technology and GNSS centimeter-level high-precision positioning. It is installed on the top of the roller to ensure that it can receive sufficient satellite signals and provide accurate position information.

[0048] In the data acquisition process, the vibration acceleration sensor (master sensor) is connected to the temperature sensor (slave sensor) and the RTK differential GPS positioning terminal (slave sensor) through a coaxial cable. The vibration acceleration sensor generates a TTL level signal when collecting data, which is transmitted to the slave sensor through the signal trigger line. The slave sensor starts to collect data synchronously. The master sensor and the slave sensor transmit the data to the data processing module in the same cycle; the vibration acceleration sensor collects the acceleration signal of the vibration wheel in real time and transmits it to the data processing module through the CAN bus protocol. The data acquisition frequency is set to 1kHz; the temperature sensor collects the working environment temperature in real time and transmits it to the data processing module through the CAN bus protocol. The data acquisition frequency is set to 1Hz; the RTK differential GPS positioning terminal collects the position information of the roller in real time and transmits it to the data processing module through the CAN bus protocol. The data acquisition frequency is set to 10Hz. The hardware trigger mechanism is used to enable each sensor to collect data synchronously. When the main sensor collects data, a trigger signal is sent to other slave sensors through the trigger signal line to enable them to collect data synchronously. It can achieve microsecond or even nanosecond synchronization, with the advantages of high precision and strong reliability. It solves the problem that the frequency and time of multi-sensor data collection are different, the data synchronization is poor, and the fused data cannot accurately reflect the compaction status, affecting the accuracy of control decisions, making the compaction degree prediction more accurate.

[0049] Example 2: The data processing module is responsible for preprocessing and feature extraction of the collected raw data for use by the subsequent control algorithm module.

[0050] This module includes a wavelet analysis unit, an IIR filter unit, and a feature extraction unit. The wavelet analysis unit effectively separates the different frequency components in the signal by performing multi-scale decomposition on the signal. The vibration acceleration signal is decomposed into five layers of wavelet to generate high-frequency coefficients and low-frequency coefficients. The high-frequency coefficient is denoised by hard thresholding using the formula:

[0051]

[0052] Where N is the number of sampling points, the low-frequency coefficient is eliminated by the fourth-order elliptic filter to eliminate the phase distortion transfer function:

[0053]

[0054] The input vibration acceleration signal is decomposed into five layers of wavelet, then hard threshold denoising and fourth-order elliptic filter are applied to reconstruct the signal and output to the IIR filter unit.

[0055] The IIR filter unit is an infinite impulse response filter with good frequency selection characteristics. The state equation is:

[0056]

[0057] A low-pass filter is designed to further remove noise, receive the signal output from the wavelet analysis unit, perform IIR filtering processing on it, and output the filtered signal to the feature extraction unit.

[0058] The feature extraction unit is responsible for extracting key features from the processed signal for use by subsequent algorithms. The formula for calculating the effective value RMS of vibration acceleration is:

[0059]

[0060] The state equation for correlating temperature data using Kalman filtering is:

[0061] x[k]=Ax[k-1]+w[k]

[0062] The observation equation is:

[0063] z[k]=Hx[k]+v[k]

[0064] The signal output from the IIR filter unit is received to calculate the effective value (RMS) of the vibration acceleration and the temperature data is correlated using the Kalman filter to generate a composite feature vector, which is then transmitted to the control algorithm module via the PCIe bus.

[0065] Example 3: The control algorithm module is responsible for predicting the degree of compaction based on the processed data and generating the optimal control strategy. The module includes a support vector machine unit, a hidden Markov model unit and a BP neural network unit.

[0066] The support vector machine unit is a supervised learning method suitable for classification and regression tasks, using the radial basis kernel function:

[0067] K(x,x')=exp(-γ||x-x'|| 2 )

[0068] The input vibration parameter-compactness sample is classified into five categories, and the cross-validation method is used to select the optimal kernel parameter γ and penalty coefficient C. The composite feature vector output from the data processing module is received as input data, and SVM is used to perform five-category classification to generate preliminary compaction prediction results and transmit the classification results to the hidden Markov model unit.

[0069] The hidden Markov model unit is a statistical model suitable for modeling and predicting sequence data. The optimal state sequence formula for decoding using the Viterbi algorithm is:

[0070]

[0071] Use the Baum-Welch algorithm to iteratively update the model parameters:

[0072] λ=(A,B,π)

[0073] The classification results output from the support vector machine unit are received as observation sequences, the optimal state sequence is decoded using the Viterbi algorithm, the model parameters are optimized using the Baum-Welch algorithm, and the optimized model parameters are transmitted to the BP neural network unit.

[0074] The BP neural network unit is a feedforward neural network suitable for complex nonlinear mapping tasks. The three-layer BP neural network input layer, hidden layer and output layer have several nodes respectively. The input layer receives the processed composite feature vector, the hidden layer uses the ReLU activation function, and the output layer uses the Sigmoid activation function. The network weights are updated through the back propagation algorithm, and the loss function is the mean square error. The model parameters output from the hidden Markov model unit are received as input data, and the BP neural network is used for training to generate the final compaction prediction result and transmit the prediction result to the feedback control module.

[0075] Example 4: The feedback control module is responsible for adjusting the operating parameters of the roller in real time according to the compaction prediction results provided by the control algorithm module to achieve the best compaction effect. The module adjusts the vibration frequency, amplitude and rolling speed of the roller through the CANopen protocol. The vibration frequency is adjusted by sending instructions to adjust the vibration frequency of the vibrating wheel through the CANopen protocol according to the compaction prediction results. The frequency range is usually 30Hz to 35Hz. The vibration frequency is adjusted by using a PWM signal generation circuit through an H-bridge drive. The required vibration frequency is calculated based on the compaction prediction results output from the control algorithm module and instructions are sent through the CANopen protocol to adjust the vibration frequency. The actual vibration frequency is monitored in real time and closed-loop feedback is performed through a Hall effect sensor.

[0076] Amplitude adjustment also uses the CANopen protocol to adjust the amplitude of the vibrating wheel to ensure effective energy utilization during the compaction process. The amplitude range should be optimized according to the specific working conditions and is usually ±8mm. The PWM signal generation circuit is used to adjust the amplitude through the H-bridge drive. The compaction degree prediction result output from the control algorithm module is received to calculate the required amplitude and send instructions to adjust the amplitude through the CANopen protocol. The actual amplitude is monitored in real time and closed-loop feedback is performed through the Hall effect sensor.

[0077] Rolling speed adjustment: The roller's rolling speed is maintained between 4 km / h and 5 km / h. A PID compensator is used to correct control errors. The compensation signal is output through the FPGA DSP module at a 200 kHz sampling rate. A control cycle of ≤100 ms ensures real-time and stability. The control algorithm module receives the compaction prediction results output by the control algorithm module, calculates the required rolling speed, and sends instructions to adjust the rolling speed via the CANopen protocol. The actual rolling speed is monitored in real time and closed-loop feedback is provided through a Hall effect sensor.

[0078] An adaptive adjustment unit is added to the microcontroller, and a fuzzy rule table is established through fuzzy logic. The parameters are adjusted in real time according to the system operating status. When it is detected that the compaction difficulty increases, the system error increases and converges slowly, then Kp is increased, the control quantity output speed is improved, and the error is quickly reduced; when it is detected that the compaction degree is close to the target value but there is a small error, Ki is increased to quickly eliminate the residual error. When there is a large error in the compaction degree for a long time, Ki is reduced to avoid overshoot; when it is detected that the error change rate becomes larger, Kd is increased to suppress overshoot in advance, thereby realizing adaptive control. The system status is perceived in real time through the adaptive PID control algorithm, and the proportional (P), integral (I), and differential (D) parameters are dynamically adjusted. This solves the problem that the fixed-parameter PID control algorithm cannot accurately adjust the compaction parameters under different asphalt material properties, environmental conditions, and construction equipment, and adapts to complex working conditions.

[0079] Example 5: The user interface communicates with other modules via the TCP / IP protocol, and displays compaction data, historical analysis charts, and parameter adjustment suggestions in real time. The interface provides intuitive visualization tools to facilitate operators to perform real-time monitoring and parameter adjustment.

[0080] The real-time data display area uses OpenGL ES 3.2 to render a 0.5m×0.5m resolution dynamic heat map with a color mapping range of 0-100% and a compaction refresh rate of 1Hz. The compaction data is obtained in real time and mapped to the color range. OpenGL ES3.2 is used for efficient rendering to ensure real-time and smoothness. The real-time compaction data output from the feedback control module is received for color mapping and OpenGL ES 3.2 is used to render the dynamic heat map to display the compaction distribution in real time.

[0081] The historical data analysis area uses the FFT algorithm to generate a spectrum diagram to help operators perform trend analysis and problem troubleshooting. The FFT algorithm is used to perform frequency domain analysis on historical compaction data to generate a spectrum diagram, and line graphs and bar graphs are provided to facilitate visual analysis by operators. The historical compaction data output from the feedback control module is received for FFT analysis to generate spectrum diagrams, line graphs, and bar graphs to display the historical data analysis results in real time.

[0082] Parameter adjustment suggestions are provided based on current compaction data and historical analysis results to help operators optimize the compaction process. Machine learning algorithms are used to predict the optimal parameter combination to generate adjustment suggestions, which provide detailed adjustment steps and expected effects for easy execution by operators. Current compaction data and historical analysis results are output from the feedback control module for prediction and parameter adjustment suggestions are generated and displayed in real time on the user interface for easy reference by operators.

The microcontroller includes an adaptive adjustment unit that establishes a fuzzy rule table using fuzzy logic to adjust parameters in real time based on the system's operating status. The user interface communicates with other modules via the TCP / IP protocol, displaying real-time compaction data, historical analysis charts, and parameter adjustment suggestions.

[0084] The multi-sensor fusion asphalt pavement intelligent compaction closed-loop control system integrates vibration acceleration sensor, temperature sensor and RTK differential GPS positioning terminal through the data acquisition module. The vibration acceleration sensor is connected to the temperature sensor and RTK differential GPS positioning terminal through a coaxial cable to realize multi-sensor simultaneous data acquisition, and prevent the different frequencies and times of data acquisition, which lead to the fused data not accurately reflecting the compaction status; the multi-source data is transmitted to the data processing module using the CAN bus protocol, and the wavelet analysis unit, IIR filter unit and feature extraction unit in the data processing module pre-process and extract features from these data, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the data. In particular, the temperature data is associated with the effective value RMS of the vibration acceleration through the Kalman filter to generate a composite feature vector for use by the subsequent control algorithm, thereby realizing high-precision feature extraction. This mechanism solves the problem of insufficient prediction accuracy caused by a single sensor data source, making the compaction prediction more accurate and adaptable to changes in complex working conditions; and the multi-sensor fusion asphalt pavement intelligent compaction closed-loop control system In the control algorithm module, the support vector machine unit, the hidden Markov model unit and the BP neural network unit work together to predict the compaction degree and generate the optimal control strategy based on the processed composite feature vector.
