TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of panoramic health assessment and operation and maintenance, and particularly relates to a method and system for panoramic health assessment and operation and maintenance of a photovoltaic array of an expressway. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, as an important part of clean energy, photovoltaic power generation has gradually increased in application along expressways. Photovoltaic arrays of expressways are usually deployed in guardrails, soundproof walls, bridge slopes, service area roofs and other linear or distributed areas, and have the advantages of high space utilization efficiency, flexible grid connection and coordinated development with transportation infrastructure. However, due to the special deployment environment, the health assessment and operation and maintenance mechanism adopted by conventional centralized power stations cannot be directly applied to the expressway scene. The main health assessment methods for photovoltaic modules currently mainly rely on fixed cameras, unmanned aerial vehicle thermal imaging, infrared spectrum analysis, electrical characteristic comparison or manual inspection, but these methods face several main bottlenecks: first, the sensing coverage is limited, and fixed points cannot obtain the state of all linearly arranged modules in real time; second, environmental interference is serious, such as vehicle obstruction, dust accumulation and complex lighting conditions, which leads to a decrease in image acquisition quality and affects the accuracy of identification; third, data acquisition and diagnosis are separated, and most health assessments are limited to the "periodic inspection" level, lacking the ability to model the fault evolution trend and the ability to respond to early warnings, resulting in late fault discovery and low processing efficiency; fourth, the deployment cost is high, especially the unmanned aerial vehicle system has difficulty in operation and maintenance in mountainous areas or closed road sections, which limits the normal use. Under these limitations, the current technology cannot build a photovoltaic module health assessment system that is wide in coverage, fast in response, has trend judgment ability and suitable for expressway scenes.
[0003] Therefore, how to build an "low-cost, high-coverage, strong robustness and predictable" evaluation and operation and maintenance method has become a key challenge for the sustainable operation of photovoltaic systems on expressways. SUMMARY

On the one hand, by introducing a data collection mechanism with flexible deployment capability, vehicles or roadside infrastructure on the highway are involved in component state perception, significantly improving data coverage and reducing perception cost. On the other hand, a robust state recognition mechanism that can adapt to typical interference factors such as occlusion and light changes in high-speed scenes is introduced in the health assessment process, and a health prediction method combining time evolution trends is established, so that not only the current fault state can be recognized, but also the degradation trend of the component can be perceived in advance, providing intelligent support for maintenance scheduling. The overall system has the characteristics of strong real-time, flexible deployment and high adaptability, and can effectively solve the problems that existing photovoltaic health assessment methods are difficult to apply in highways and lack of reliability.

[0047] Figure 1 Flowchart of the highway photovoltaic array panoramic health assessment and operation and maintenance method of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0048] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0049] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 a highway photovoltaic array panoramic health assessment and operation and maintenance method is provided, comprising the following steps:
[0050] S1, acquiring component images of photovoltaic arrays on the highway, wherein the component images include cropped image blocks of corresponding photovoltaic components in the images, image acquisition times corresponding to the components, and geographic coordinates of the corresponding components.
[0051] In particular, this step aims to solve the problems of wide spatial distribution, strong linear extension, high fixed monitoring cost, and real-time coverage difficulty of highway photovoltaic arrays. It uses existing traffic flow resources (such as inspection vehicles or ETC sensing vehicles) for dynamic image acquisition and positioning. The core of this step is to achieve spatial positioning and image quality assurance of components through vehicle-mounted sensor fusion, providing reliable raw data for subsequent health assessment, trend modeling, and other steps. We first use an inspection vehicle equipped with a forward-looking camera, IMU, and GNSS to collect image frames at a certain frequency (e.g., 2Hz) during driving along the highway .
[0052] where each frame of image is recorded with a timestamp , GNSS position , and camera pose information provided by IMU .
[0053] Use a lightweight image detection model (such as YOLOv5-Nano) to detect photovoltaic components in each frame of image , output a set of rectangular frames:
[0054]
[0055] where each represents the pixel coordinate frame (including center point and width and height ) of the th detected photovoltaic component region in the image.
[0056] where, for each component region , according to the current position of the vehicle and the camera pose , the component region is mapped to the real geographic coordinate system through spatial perspective transformation, and the geographic coordinates of the component are calculated :
[0057]
[0058] : represents the pixel coordinate frame (including center point and width and height ) of the th detected photovoltaic component region in the image;
[0059] : camera pose information (such as pitch angle, yaw angle, roll angle) when image is taken, measured by IMU;
[0060] : GNSS position (WGS84 geographic coordinate system) when the vehicle currently collects the image;
[0061] : Geographic coordinates of the th component on the map;
[0062] : Transform function of geographic position based on camera model and pose information to complete perspective back-projection and combine GPS position.
[0063] In order to improve the effectiveness of image data, the occlusion confidence of each frame of image is calculated to determine whether there is image occlusion caused by traffic flow and other factors, and the occlusion confidence is defined as:
[0064]
[0065] : Current image frame;
[0066] : Image frame at the previous moment;
[0067] : Pixel difference between two frames of images, representing the scene change amplitude;
[0068] : Vehicle speed (which can be approximated as the displacement length) calculated based on the two position coordinates;
[0069] : Scaling coefficient for controlling the influence of image change on confidence;
[0070] : Weight factor for controlling the sensitivity of vehicle movement to image occlusion;
[0071] : Occlusion confidence value, the closer to 1, the higher the image quality, the closer to 0, the existence of occlusion or low quality.
[0072] Each component image area is combined with its collection time and geographic coordinates to form a triple, which is stored in the component space index library :
[0073]
[0074] : Cropped image block of the th photovoltaic component in the image;
[0075] : Image collection time;
[0076] : Geographical coordinates of the corresponding component
[0077] : Component spatial index library, and as the input data source of subsequent steps (such as the basis of image repair, health identification, trend prediction).
[0078] In this way, the component image data collected by multiple inspection vehicles can be uploaded to the cloud server for fusion and unified storage, forming a structured data platform supporting spatial query + time backtracking.
[0079] S2, occlusion confidence analysis is performed on the images with availability problems in the component images, and enhanced images and image confidence scores are generated.
[0080] Specifically, this step processes the component images output by step one , focusing on the image availability decline problems caused by traffic occlusion (such as large vehicles driving through), strong light reflection, rain and snow interference, etc. for photovoltaic array deployment in highway slope, soundproof wall, shoulder, etc. Enhancement and reconstruction are performed.
[0081] High-speed photovoltaic components in images often exhibit partial occlusion (such as only covering the lower right corner of the component), local highlight / overexposure (such as a mirror or sunlight), which can mislead subsequent health identification (step three). Therefore, a special mechanism must be introduced to complete the confidence modeling, reliable area identification, and occlusion repair enhancement of the image in this step.
[0082] This step first constructs an image occlusion mask , uses a lightweight spatial attention mechanism model to mark the pixel level of the occluded area in the image, and obtains the occlusion probability of each pixel:
[0083] Use self-attention graph and local edge discontinuous area to jointly judge the occlusion probability, , the numerical value of the occluded area is close to 1.
[0084] In order to solve the problem of "image availability is difficult to quantify", this scheme introduces an innovative occlusion-spatiotemporal coupling confidence scoring function, which considers the image occlusion mask , the difference between adjacent frames and , as well as the relative speed of the vehicle (calculated by and ) to jointly evaluate image quality:
[0085]
[0086] : the total sum of pixels identified as occluded regions in the image;
[0087] : the total number of pixels in the image (e.g. ), representing the maximum unoccluded area;
[0088] : the L2 norm of the pixel difference between two consecutive images, used to determine whether the component surface state is stable;
[0089] : the spatial velocity of the vehicle at two sampling times, , used to determine the shooting stability;
[0090] : the weight that adjusts the influence of image difference and vehicle movement on image confidence;
[0091] : the global confidence rate adjustment term;
[0092] : the normalization constant, ensuring ;
[0093] : the final image confidence score, the closer to 1, the more reliable, the closer to 0, the more should be shielded or replaced.
[0094] It can be understood that this formula innovatively combines spatial occlusion information with image dynamic stability, and introduces the modeling of "shooting reliability" through the vehicle movement rate , which is designed specifically for the joint problem of image blur / tilt / occlusion in highway scenes, avoiding traditional methods that rely solely on image texture changes to determine quality.
[0095] For images with confidence scores below a threshold (e.g. ), i.e. , a specially designed cross-time local region compensation mechanism in this invention is used to fill in the occluded regions, rather than directly using an image inpainting network. The final output is the enhanced image and its corresponding confidence , geographical coordinates and timestamp form a four-tuple .
[0096] S3, based on the enhanced image and image confidence score, input a single-layer perception machine to obtain the health score of the current component at the current time.
[0097] Specifically, the task of this step is to obtain the enhanced image and image confidence scores Inference is drawn that each photovoltaic module is at the current time Health status score and with components geographic coordinates Output them together to build a status data set for trend prediction.
[0098] In order to avoid misleading the recognition results due to image quality, this step adopts a confidence-guided lightweight state modeling model. , takes the image and its confidence score as input and outputs a component health score. Instead of using hard-label classification, we employ a continuous scoring approach to quantify component status from 0 (serious failure) to 1 (perfectly healthy), adapting to the real-world conditions of blurry images and minor anomalies.
[0099] This step uses the following state modeling structure:
[0100] Will Input lightweight convolutional encoder to extract image feature vector ;
[0101] Using occlusion confidence Scale and weight the features to obtain quality-adjusted features;
[0102] Input the feature into a single-layer perceptron and output a health score :
[0103]
[0104] :pass Extracted component image features;
[0105] : Image quality score, from step 2, value range ;
[0106] : state scoring linear layer parameters;
[0107] : Sigmoid activation function to ensure output ;
[0108] : No. Components in Health score at all times.
[0109] Understandably, the creativity of this modeling process lies in the use of As a feature modulation factor, it essentially implements the "image credibility perception modeling" mechanism, automatically reducing the output weight when the image reliability is insufficient, thereby reducing misjudgment.
[0110] We further propose to improve the stability of the model on partially occluded images by introducing a dynamic confidence stretching mechanism, which makes the scoring results more neutral (avoiding extreme values) when the image confidence is lower:
[0111]
[0112] : Final health score after confidence smoothing adjustment;
[0113] Explanation: When When it approaches 1, that is, when the image has high credibility, the output approaches the model judgment ;
[0114] when When it is low, the output approaches 0.5, indicating uncertainty or fuzzy areas, and avoids outputting extreme values for low-quality images.
[0115] Output structured component health status triples , used by the next non-uniform time series modeling module
[0116] S4. Based on the health score of the current component at the current moment, a trend prediction model is trained, and a regularization term based on the extreme value of the weight distribution in the current sample sequence is added to obtain a trained trend prediction model. The trained trend prediction model is used to estimate the health status of the component at a certain point in the future.
[0117] Specifically, the goal of this step is to build a trend prediction model for "non-uniform time series + occlusion confidence" after completing the health status identification, so as to estimate the component at a certain point in the future. health status There are two typical problems with PV inspections on highways:
[0118] Among them, time sampling is non-uniform: sampling time The interval changes greatly, which does not meet the "fixed step size" assumption of the traditional RNN model;
[0119] Data quality varies: The quality of each image acquisition is inconsistent due to vehicle speed, weather, and occlusion, and modeling trends based solely on state values is unreliable.
[0120] To this end, this step proposes a "non-uniform state convolution modeling method with confidence decay kernel". The overall idea is to convert the state values at different times into The future state is weightedly estimated through a kernel function convolution with a time difference decay term and a confidence suppression term The prediction formula is constructed as follows:
[0121]
[0122] The health prediction of the first component at future time
[0123] The set of all time points collected by the component in history
[0124] The health score of the historical sampling time
[0125] The confidence of the image corresponding to the time
[0126] The confidence decay kernel function is defined as follows:
[0127]
[0128] The time difference between the prediction point and the sample point
[0129] The time decay rate (controls the rapid weakening of the influence of long-interval samples)
[0130] The image confidence (used to limit the effect of low-quality samples)
[0131] A small positive number (to avoid the product being zero in the case of
[0132] The normalization factor makes the weight sum of all The formula realizes high-order decay control of the time difference
[0133] At the same time, the confidence term embeds the mechanism of “the higher the image quality, the greater the prediction contribution” directly into the state modeling kernel
[0134] In addition, to enhance the robustness of the model, the present application introduces an innovative regularization mechanism on the kernel function to control the model from being misled by isolated high-confidence points, and the mechanism is as follows:
[0135]
[0136] : confidence non-uniformity penalty term;
[0137] and : range of weight distribution in current sample sequence;
[0138] : regularization coefficient.
[0139] If the weight of a certain moment is much larger than other samples, it will lead to a serious dependence on the prediction results of this point. Through this regularization term, we inhibit the "extreme single-point control" and enhance the model generalization ability.
[0140] The output is the health score prediction of each component in the future time , and the corresponding time and geographical coordinates, forming a triple , which is used to build a trend space heat map and generate operation and maintenance scheduling suggestions in the next step.
[0141] S5, based on the health status of the component at a certain time in the future, combined with the geographical coordinates of the corresponding component, a two-dimensional space health trend chart is constructed, which is used to judge the health degree and health change speed of the current component, and the two-dimensional space health trend chart is subjected to spatial clustering analysis, to generate a priority score of each candidate task area, and generate a fault early warning scheduling list according to the candidate task area and the corresponding priority score, for generating daily or weekly patrol dispatching tasks; wherein the candidate task area is an operation and maintenance task candidate area.
[0142] Specifically, this step aims to combine the future health prediction results of the components obtained in the previous stage with their geographical coordinates to construct a two-dimensional space health trend chart for the entire PV array , and based on the trend evolution speed, to determine the health deterioration degree of different areas, to generate a fault early warning priority list , and finally to link the operation and maintenance system to trigger maintenance scheduling.
[0143] The input data is the triple output by step four:
[0144] : predicted health state value at future time point;
[0145] : predicted target time;
[0146] : the first the position of a component in the map coordinate system, denoted as from step one;
[0147] In addition, we calculate the health value change rate from the historical prediction sequence, to evaluate the health degradation trend.
[0148] To map the health state into a spatial graph, we define a two-dimensional spatial health trend graph , where each component occupies a cell in the graph at its geographical coordinate We assign a weighted trend health value to the cell, considering both the current health state and the degradation speed:
[0149]
[0150] : predicted health value;
[0151] : state change rate between the last two time instants;
[0152] : trend penalty coefficient (e.g., 0.5~1.5);
[0153] : weighted health state of the component in the trend graph, used to judge whether it is "currently bad + changing fast".
[0154] It can be understood that this trend index reflects the "health degree x change speed" composite measurement;
[0155] If the health value is low and the change is fast, it will rapidly decrease, corresponding to the early warning hot area;
[0156] Compared with the static state, this value can more truly reflect the real risk of the component being "rapidly deteriorating".
[0157] After building the complete graph , we automatically detect potential "high degradation areas" on the graph through a spatial clustering algorithm (such as DBSCAN), i.e., the values of locally continuous components are below a certain threshold , and the spatial distribution is dense. Each clustering area is defined as a "candidate area for operation and maintenance" . For each candidate task area , we calculate its comprehensive priority score , considering three dimensions:
[0158] the average trend health value of the components in the area;
[0159] Area of the region (influence of possible power loss)
[0160] Spatial distance to the nearest service point (influence of scheduling cost)
[0161] The final priority calculation formula is as follows:
[0162]
[0163] Area Number of components in the region
[0164] Area geographic area (can be calculated by the minimum bounding box or convex hull)
[0165] Geographic distance between the region center and the nearest operation and maintenance scheduling center (meters)
[0166] Weight coefficient, used to balance the trend severity, power influence range and scheduling cost
[0167] The comprehensive scheduling priority score of the task region
[0168] It can be understood that the lower the trend value (the more deteriorated), the larger the region, the closer to the service station, the higher the priority
[0169] This mechanism embodies the key system advantage of the present application - from single point judgment to spatial-scheduling integrated comprehensive operation and maintenance evaluation model.
[0170] Finally, a fault warning scheduling list is formed , which is sorted from high to low to generate the daily or weekly inspection task, and the scheduling system retrieves the nearest maintenance personnel, vehicles and other resources according to The center point automatically generates the scheduling path and execution instructions.
