Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of low-power control technology, and in particular to a low-power control method for a drone-based power transmission line inspection and monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] During long-term operation, power transmission lines may experience energy loss, decreased equipment insulation performance, or even malfunctions due to abnormal phenomena such as high-voltage corona discharge. Ultraviolet (UV) monitoring devices, capable of capturing the characteristic UV signals generated by high-voltage corona discharge, have been widely used for power transmission line condition monitoring. However, due to the wide distribution and complex operating environment of power transmission lines, on-site monitoring devices often need to be in an online monitoring state for extended periods. This leads to problems such as excessive power consumption and shortened power supply lifespan for equipment with limited power supply during long-term operation. Especially in unattended areas or areas with limited power supply, how to reduce energy consumption while ensuring monitoring reliability has become a pressing challenge for online monitoring technology of power transmission lines.
[0003] Existing ultraviolet (UV) monitoring systems typically employ a fixed-period wake-up method for the UV sensor and continuous operation of the main controller. While this allows for real-time capture of high-voltage corona signals, maintaining high-frequency detection even when corona signals are absent for extended periods leads to high system power consumption and makes long-term stable operation difficult in power-constrained scenarios. Furthermore, current technologies lack a mechanism for dynamically adjusting the monitoring cycle based on detection results, failing to balance timeliness and energy efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to design a low-power control method for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) power line inspection and monitoring devices to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

All are greater than the mutation detection threshold And the light intensity value at any of the sampling points is greater than the set amplitude threshold. When the conditions are met, the sampling point with the largest light intensity value is extracted as the pulse peak light intensity. ;
[0066] S133: If the judgment condition of S132 is met, it is determined that an ultraviolet light pulse signal is detected in the current cycle, and the signal is used for subsequent effective pulse cluster judgment. The above steps, by performing differential analysis and threshold judgment on continuous light intensity changes, combined with the maximum peak point extraction mechanism, can achieve accurate identification of high voltage corona discharge ultraviolet signals, effectively improving the pulse recognition sensitivity and accuracy of the monitoring device in low power consumption state.
[0067] S2: When an ultraviolet light pulse signal that meets the preset amplitude threshold is detected within N consecutive first preset cycles, it is determined that a valid pulse cluster has been captured and the main controller is woken up.
[0068] S2 specifically includes:

The results are then written into the pulse marker sequence in chronological order. The threshold value is set for pulse amplitude.
[0070] S22: During monitoring, a sliding window mechanism is used to update the pulse marker sequence in real time, retaining only the most recent consecutive pulses. The detection results of the first preset cycle are used to determine the current monitoring status;

[0079] The main controller then determines that the current ultraviolet pulse cluster has high-voltage corona characteristics and proceeds to the next image acquisition control process. The above steps analyze the time and frequency characteristics of the effective pulse cluster and match them with the preset corona discharge characteristic parameters. This enables accurate identification of high-voltage corona phenomena under low-power operation, providing an accurate triggering basis for subsequent image capture.

[0085] S4: When S3 detects high-voltage corona characteristics, the main controller activates the visible light camera to capture images of the target transmission line area and obtain on-site images.
[0086] S4 specifically includes:

[0093] S52: The main controller sends a command to the system power management module to enter deep sleep mode, shuts down the power supply of all functional modules except the ultraviolet light sensor, and reduces the main controller's own operating frequency and power supply voltage to enter deep sleep mode.
[0094] S53: The main controller writes control parameters to the timing circuit, resetting the detection cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor to the first preset cycle, ensuring that subsequent ultraviolet light signal sampling runs at the normal working frequency, and completing the closed-loop control of the monitoring process; the above steps effectively realize the rapid hibernation and resource recovery of the system after event processing by the main controller through the graded shutdown of the image acquisition module and the system power module, and simultaneously resetting the detection cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor, ensuring the long-term stable operation and energy consumption optimization of the monitoring device.
[0095] S6: If no ultraviolet light pulse signal is detected within M consecutive first preset cycles, the working cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor is adjusted to the second preset cycle; when an ultraviolet light pulse signal is detected within the second preset cycle, the working cycle is reset to the first preset cycle, and the process returns to step S1.
[0096] S6 specifically includes:
[0097] S61: The main controller reads the detection results of the ultraviolet light sensor in each first preset cycle, and when continuously... All detection results within each cycle are invalid, meaning the peak pulse intensity within all cycles is invalid. All are below the set threshold If so, it is determined that there is no valid pulse signal triggering the event;
[0098] S62: In determining continuity After one cycle becomes invalid, the main controller sends a cycle adjustment command to the timing control circuit, changing the working cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor from the first preset cycle. Extended to the second preset period ,satisfy To reduce system power consumption during periods of ineffective monitoring;
[0099] S63: During the operation of the second preset cycle after the extended period, once the pulse peak light intensity is detected within any of the second preset cycles... If the main controller immediately sends a recovery command to the timing control circuit, it resets the working cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor to the first preset cycle and jumps to S1 to restart the monitoring process.
[0100] The design principle of step S6 above lies in introducing a periodic adaptive control mechanism based on historical detection results. Its core purpose is to minimize power consumption while ensuring monitoring effectiveness. When the system does not detect an ultraviolet light pulse signal that meets the threshold for M consecutive first preset periods, it indicates that the possibility of a high-voltage corona event occurring in the current environment is low. At this time, by extending the working period of the ultraviolet light sensor from the high-frequency T1 to the low-frequency T2, the number of wake-ups can be effectively reduced and the system power consumption can be reduced. Once a valid signal reappears in the low-frequency detection period, the system immediately resumes high-frequency sampling to ensure that the system responds to the corona event in a timely manner. Therefore, S6 achieves a dynamic balance between energy consumption and monitoring efficiency without sacrificing responsiveness through a strategy that couples detection behavior with period adjustment.

The low-power control method for the UAV power transmission line inspection and monitoring device according to claim 1, characterized in that, S6 specifically includes: S61: The main controller reads the detection results of the ultraviolet light sensor in each first preset cycle, and when continuously... All detection results within each cycle are invalid, meaning the peak pulse intensity within all cycles is invalid. All are below the set threshold If so, it is determined that there is no valid pulse signal triggering the event; S62: In determining continuity After one cycle becomes invalid, the main controller sends a cycle adjustment command to the timing control circuit, changing the working cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor from the first preset cycle. Extended to the second preset period ,satisfy ; S63: During the operation of the second preset cycle after the extended period, once the pulse peak light intensity is detected within any of the second preset cycles... If the main controller immediately sends a recovery command to the timing control circuit, it resets the working cycle of the ultraviolet light sensor to the first preset cycle and jumps to S1 to restart the monitoring process.
