Radar monitoring technology, as a non-contact long-distance measurement method, has gradually been applied in the monitoring of bridge cable-stayed cables due to its high resolution, multi-target identification and all-weather working ability. Such a radar system can generate a pulse-echo diagram, and by extracting the peak position and micro-vibration frequency of the cable reflection echo, the cable displacement change, cable force level and health status can be indirectly determined, thereby laying a technical foundation for establishing a new generation of intelligent monitoring system.

[0068] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical scheme of the present application, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0069] Embodiment 1

[0070] In the actual operation process of a long-span bridge, the main girder structure is often affected by long-term temperature changes, traffic loads, strong wind weather and other factors, and the deflection may change, so the reflection position of the cable will also change, resulting in a change in the radar cable distance received by the radar, thereby causing a significant drift of the cable corresponding reflection peak position in the radar peak distance spectrum. After the cable target peak drifts, if the system still extracts the cable frequency in the original set position area, the following problems exist: 1. Frequency measurement object error: the original peak position no longer corresponds to the target cable, and the signal or background noise of the adjacent cable may be collected; 2. Frequency calculation distortion: the drift causes the target point reflection signal energy to be reduced or aliasing, resulting in FFT spectrum distortion and reducing the cable force calculation accuracy; 3. Abnormal misjudgment increases: the system may misjudge the frequency change caused by the peak shift as a structural abnormality, interfering with the health state assessment; 4. Long cable is more susceptible to influence: in the same cable plane, the echo drift of the long cable near the end is more significant, making it more difficult to identify and continuously track multiple targets.

[0071] Referring to Figure 1 The cable monitoring method includes the following steps: acquiring the frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy of any cable; calculating a first score value and a second score value based on the frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy of the cable; determining whether the first score value is greater than a preset first threshold value and the second score value is greater than a preset second threshold value; if not, continuing to monitor the cable using the radar; if yes, determining whether the radar cable distance meets a preset condition; if yes, causing the radar to actively re-identify and locate the spatial position of the cable and then continue to monitor the cable; if not, manually causing the radar to re-identify and locate the spatial position of the cable and then continue to monitor the cable.

[0072] In the monitoring process of a long-span bridge, the cables are numbered as 1, 2, 3, …, N in order from near to far from the radar, and the th cable in the numbering is represented as . The system acquires the frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy of the th cable from the data continuously collected by the millimeter wave radar, calculates a first score value and a second score value based on the acquired frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy, and determines whether the first score value is greater than a preset first threshold value and the second score value is greater than a preset second threshold value. If not, the system continues to monitor the cable using the radar; if yes, the system determines whether the radar cable distance meets a preset condition; if yes, the system causes the radar to actively re-identify and locate the spatial position of the cable and then continues to monitor the cable; if not, the system manually causes the radar to re-identify and locate the spatial position of the cable and then continues to monitor the cable. The frequency relative fluctuation rate, peak position relative offset amount, and radar echo energy change ratio are key physical characteristic parameters of the root cable. The frequency relative fluctuation rate, peak position relative offset amount, and radar echo energy change ratio effectively reflect the cable displacement change, cable force level, and health status, respectively.

[0073] After the frequency, peak position offset amount, and radar echo energy data of the cable are acquired, the system calculates the first score value and the second score value of the cable according to the data. The first score value and the second score value of the root cable are obtained, and then the first score value is compared with a preset first threshold value. If the first score value is greater than the preset first threshold value, it is determined that the cable drifts, and the cable that drifts is included in an abnormal candidate set. If the first score value is not greater than the preset first threshold value, it is determined that the cable does not drift, and then the system can continue to monitor the cable. The second score value of the cable included in the abnormal candidate set that drifts is compared with a preset second threshold value. If the second score value is greater than the preset second threshold value, it is determined that the cable continuously drifts. If the second score value is not greater than the preset second threshold value, it is determined that the cable does not continuously drift, and then the system can continue to monitor the cable.

[0074] When the cable continuously drifts, the cable echo position also drifts in the radar device. At this time, the system needs to re-identify the new spatial position of the cable and then restore monitoring of the cable.

[0075] When the system identifies that the cable continuously drifts, the system immediately calls the radar peak distance-radar echo energy intensity map at the current time, extracts the radar peak distance in the map in order, performs fast Fourier transform (FFT) on each extracted radar peak distance, thereby extracting the actual frequency corresponding to the cable radar peak distance, forming a candidate target pair, and constructing a candidate target set

[0076]

[0077] The candidate target set is used as the basis for cable position relocation.

[0078] wherein, The candidate target set is used as the basis for cable position relocation. is the radar peak distance extracted from the radar peak distance-radar echo energy intensity map, is the actual frequency corresponding to the radar peak distance.

[0079] In the monitoring process, the electric wires, electric poles, trees, flying objects and the like near the bridge will generate echo energy, and the constructed candidate target set contains noise, so it is necessary to carry out noise removal processing on the constructed candidate target set.

[0080] Firstly, the monitoring system constructs a structural difference template between the cables according to the historical data of the average distance difference and the frequency difference of the adjacent cables at the initial steady state recorded by the system at the steady state, so as to provide data reference for subsequent drift peak adaptive identification.

[0081] Secondly, the frequency data of the first k cables are updated based on the historical distance data at the steady state, and the possible positions of the first k+1 cables are predicted target by target. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, when the deflection of the bridge changes, the position of the bridge deck moves, and the size of the movement is proportional to the horizontal distance from the cable tower, that is, the farther away from the cable tower, the greater the change of the bridge deck position, and the position of the first k cables near the cable tower basically does not change, and the first k cables tend to be stable in the monitoring process, which can be used to predict the possible positions of the first k+1 cables target by target.

[0082] Then, the structural consistency error of each group of data in the constructed candidate target set is calculated, and the size of the consistency error and the preset error threshold is compared, and the radar wave peak distance whose consistency error is less than the preset error threshold is the radar cable distance. The preset error threshold is a drift error threshold set by the system, which is used to constrain the adaptive matching of the cable.

[0083] The identified radar cable distance is subjected to data cycle verification to ensure whether the actual physical relationship between the cables meets the corresponding logic, that is, the radar cable distance with a smaller number is less than the radar cable distance with a larger number. If yes, the radar actively re-identifies and positions the cable space and continues to monitor the cable; if no, the system prompts and alarms for the abnormal target, and retains the historical structural template of the target cable, and in the subsequent monitoring process, the system is allowed to re-identify the number of the cable based on the time series trend, and the number binding correction is carried out through manual assistance.

[0084] The present application provides a cable monitoring method, which judges whether the cable has continuous drift in actual monitoring through a set of continuous drift judgment mechanism, and repositions and identifies the cable which has continuous drift, so as to realize accurate and efficient state monitoring of the cable-stayed cable.

[0085] Example 2:

[0086] ​The cable monitoring method, which involves acquiring the frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy of any cable, and calculating a first score and a second score based on the cable's frequency, peak position offset, and radar echo energy, further includes the following step: calculating the first score according to the following formula:

[0087] The first score is calculated using the following formula:

[0088] ;

[0089] The second score is calculated using the following formula:

[0090] ;

[0091] in, Indicates the first Genlaso at the moment The first score value is used to number the cables sequentially from closest to furthest from the radar as 1, 2, 3...N. Indicates the number in the sequence. Genlaso, ;

[0092] Indicates the first Genlaso at the moment The second rating value;

[0093] , , They are the first The ratio of the relative frequency fluctuation, relative shift of peak position, and change in radar echo energy of the genlach at time t to time t-1. Let be the weighting coefficient of the three indicators corresponding to the i-th cable. , It is the average of the stability score benchmark constructed by k short cables near the tower end.

[0094] The mean of the stability score benchmark constructed by k short cables near the tower end The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0095] ;

[0096] In cable-stayed bridge structures, cable numbers increase from the tower towards the mid-span on both sides. Shorter cables closer to the tower are less affected by the main girder deflection, and their echo peak positions are generally more stable. Therefore, in drift assessment, shorter cables with smaller numbers closer to the tower can be used as "structural stability anchor points" to help determine whether scoring anomalies in the longer cables at the far end are genuine and valid. Specifically, the average of the first 2-3 cables in a span is typically selected to construct the stability scoring benchmark. .

[0097] Embodiment 3

[0098] The cable monitoring method comprises: calculating the first The root cable at time t and the frequency relative fluctuation rate, the peak position relative offset and the radar echo energy change ratio of time t-1:

[0101] ;

[0102] Wherein, , , respectively represent the frequency, the peak position offset, the radar echo energy of the first cable at time t, , , respectively represent the frequency, the peak position offset, the radar echo energy of the first cable at time t-1.

[0103] Embodiment 4

[0104] The cable monitoring method comprises: calculating the weighted coefficient :

[0105] ;

[0106] ;

[0107] ;

[0108] ;

[0109] Wherein, is a cable sequence normalized position factor, which changes according to the cable number position change.

[0110] The normalized parameter setting can make the system no longer rely on the absolute value at a certain moment, but pay attention to the relative change, which can more stably reflect the drift trend, and then the drift conditions of different cables can be compared under the same reference, improving the reliability of abnormal discrimination.

[0111] Embodiment 5

[0112] The judgment of whether the first score value is greater than the preset first threshold value and whether the second score value is greater than the preset second threshold value in the cable monitoring method further comprises the following steps:

[0113] The first preset threshold is calculated using the following formula:

[0114] ;

[0115] ;

[0116] ;

[0117] The preset second threshold is calculated using the following formula:

[0118] ;

[0119] in, This represents the first preset threshold. This indicates a preset second threshold. For the continuous measurement duration L frames before time t, the system evaluates the current global cable's first value. The mean value represents the normal rating level for the current cable condition. For the Lth time period First evaluation value of Lasso The standard deviation of the fluctuation is used to reflect the uncertainty or score fluctuation range of the overall cable target state. m is the sensitivity coefficient for judging cable offset, which is configured after measurement and calibration during field deployment. For sensing drift coefficient.

[0120] Example 6:

[0121] See Figure 2 As shown, the step of the cable monitoring method, if the radar cable distance meets the preset conditions, includes the following steps: obtaining a radar peak distance-radar echo energy intensity map; extracting the radar peak distance corresponding to all energy intensity peaks in the radar peak distance-radar echo energy intensity map; removing noise from the extracted radar peak distances to obtain the radar cable distance; and determining whether the radar cable distance meets the preset conditions.

[0122] When the system detects continuous positional drift of the cable, it immediately retrieves the radar peak distance-radar echo energy intensity map for the current moment, extracts the radar peak distance signals from the map sequentially, performs a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) on each extracted radar peak distance signal, and extracts the actual frequency corresponding to the cable's radar peak distance to form candidate target pairs and construct a candidate target set.

[0123]

[0124] This serves as the basis for relocating the cable position. The constructed candidate target set contains clutter, therefore, it needs to undergo noise reduction processing.

[0125] Firstly, the monitoring system constructs a structural difference template between the cables according to historical data such as the average distance difference and frequency difference between adjacent cables at the initial steady state recorded by the system, to provide data reference for subsequent adaptive identification of drift peaks.

[0126] Secondly, the frequency data of the first k cables are updated based on the historical distance data at the steady state, and the possible positions of the first k+1 cables are predicted one by one. Referring to FIG. 6, when the deflection of the bridge changes, the position of the bridge deck moves, and the size of the movement is proportional to the horizontal distance from the cable tower. The farther away from the cable tower, the greater the change in the position of the bridge deck. The positions of the first k cables near the cable tower side are basically unchanged, and the first k cables tend to be stable during the monitoring process, which can be used to predict the possible positions of the first Figure 3 k+1 cables one by one.

[0127] Then, the structural consistency error of each group of data in the constructed candidate target set is calculated, and the size of the consistency error and the preset error threshold value is compared. The radar wave peak distance whose consistency error is less than the preset error threshold value is the radar cable distance. The preset error threshold value is a drift error threshold value set by the system, which is used to constrain the adaptive matching of the cables.

[0128] The identified radar cable distance is subjected to data cycle verification to ensure whether the actual physical relationship between the cables meets the preset condition that the radar cable distance with a smaller number is less than the radar cable distance with a larger number.

[0129] By constructing the candidate target set , and using the radar wave peak distance and the actual frequency information corresponding to the radar wave peak distance of the cable, the precise positioning of the radar peak drift corresponding to the cable can be achieved. The problem of misjudgment caused by relying on a single amplitude or frequency in the traditional method is solved, and stable identification in complex environments is achieved.

[0130] Embodiment 7:

[0131] The noise removal processing of the extracted radar wave peak distance to obtain the radar cable distance of the cable monitoring method includes the following steps: calculating the consistency error of each extracted radar wave peak distance, and retaining the radar wave peak distance whose consistency error is less than the preset error threshold value as the radar cable distance.

[0132] Since the radar collects all radar echo energy during the monitoring process, it is necessary to filter the interference terms such as power lines, power poles, trees, flying objects, etc. near the bridge which produce echo energy to obtain the actual cable radar echo energy. The echo energy produced by the interference terms can be effectively filtered out through the judgment of the consistency error value. ​

[0133] Example 8:

[0134] The consistency error of the calculated and extracted distance to each radar peak in the cable monitoring method includes the following steps:

[0135] The consistency error of each extracted radar peak distance is calculated using the following formula:

[0136] ;

[0137] in, Indicates consistency error. , Indicates the currently identified number The actual radar distance and frequency of the cable-stayed bridge. The frequency consistency error coefficient is determined by the cable distance-frequency error relationship, and... , This means that based on the steady-state historical radar cable distance data of the first k identified cables, the frequency data of the first k cables are updated, and the prediction of the first cable for each target is performed. Genlaso predicts distance. This indicates the distance between the peak value of the LAC radar and the peak value of the radar wave. This indicates the actual frequency corresponding to the distance between the radar peaks and the LAC.

[0138] By defining the consistency error formula This method integrates radar cable distance and frequency as two factors to form a quantifiable numerical criterion, providing an intuitive and calculable discrimination standard that is easy to implement in engineering. By combining multiple indicators (radar cable distance and frequency), false alarms caused by single-dimensional indicators can also be significantly reduced.

[0139] Example 9:

[0140] The cable monitoring method further includes the following steps:

[0141] Calculate the first according to the following formula. With the The average distance interval between the root cables and the first With the Average frequency difference between the root cables:

[0142] ;
