Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cable inspection technology, and in particular to a cable line inspection path planning method based on BeiDou positioning. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous expansion of power grids, the inspection and maintenance of cable lines face increasingly severe challenges. Traditional inspection methods mainly rely on manual labor or pre-programmed automated equipment, with fixed inspection routes that are difficult to cope with complex geographical environments and sudden risks. Although the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System provides basic support for outdoor positioning, there are still risks of inaccurate positioning and communication interruptions in mountainous areas, urban canyons, or under severe weather conditions.

[0003] Currently, some advanced inspection solutions are beginning to utilize sensor data and static beacons for path planning. However, these solutions have significant shortcomings: First, they are typically based on static or historical data for risk assessment, failing to integrate multi-source information such as real-time weather and geological deformation, leading to delayed risk warnings; second, the fixed locations of beacon nodes after deployment prevent adaptive adjustments based on dynamically changing risk fields, potentially causing inspection paths to fail in emergencies; third, existing path planning methods often focus on a single objective (such as the shortest path), failing to comprehensively consider multi-objective collaborative optimization such as deployment energy consumption and network connectivity, making it difficult to achieve the optimal balance between emergency rescue and routine inspections.

[0004] Therefore, a cable line inspection path planning method based on BeiDou positioning is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This manual provides a cable line inspection route planning method based on BeiDou positioning, which can accurately identify and quantify risks, thereby generating a predictive inspection strategy.

[0006] This manual provides a cable line inspection route planning method based on BeiDou positioning, including: It acquires surface and infrastructure deformation data provided by Beidou monitoring terminals, cable status data provided by sensors deployed on the cable body, and real-time meteorological grid data provided by meteorological data sources; The surface and infrastructure deformation data, the cable status data, and the real-time meteorological grid data are input into the spatiotemporal geographic weighted regression model to generate a dynamic risk field in geographic grid units. Identify high-risk core areas in the dynamic risk field and generate corresponding environment construction tasks for each core area; The environment building task is assigned to the mobile beacon cluster using a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization; The mobile beacon cluster plans a cooperative movement path based on an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm, aiming to minimize global deployment energy consumption and maximize network connectivity, and moves to the location specified by the task. Using the location of the deployed mobile beacon cluster as control points, a virtual inspection channel is generated in the digital twin model using B-spline curve fitting technology. Guided by the virtual inspection channel, the inspection unit uses a fusion predictive control algorithm to perform local obstacle avoidance and trajectory smoothing, and collects real-time perception data. The real-time sensing data is compared with the expected state in the digital twin model. When the deviation exceeds the preset tolerance, the redeployment of the mobile beacon cluster and the dynamic reconstruction of the virtual inspection channel are triggered.

[0007] Optionally, identifying high-risk core areas in the dynamic risk field and generating corresponding environment construction tasks for each core area includes: When a high-risk core area is identified and there are risks of both communication interruption and positioning inaccuracy, and the two are highly overlapping in space, the composite task is generated.

The construction module is used to identify high-risk core areas in the dynamic risk field and generate corresponding environment construction tasks for each core area; The allocation module is used to allocate the environment building tasks to the mobile beacon cluster via a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization. The planning module is used by the mobile beacon cluster to plan a cooperative movement path based on an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm, with the goal of minimizing global deployment energy consumption and maximizing network connectivity, and to move to the position specified by the task. The fitting module is used to generate virtual inspection channels in the digital twin model by using the positions of the deployed mobile beacon clusters as control points and B-spline curve fitting technology. The smoothing module is used by the inspection unit to perform local obstacle avoidance and trajectory smoothing based on the virtual inspection channel, and to collect real-time sensing data by employing a fusion predictive control algorithm. The adjustment module is used to compare the real-time sensing data with the expected state in the digital twin model. When the deviation exceeds the preset tolerance, it triggers the redeployment of the mobile beacon cluster and the dynamic reconstruction of the virtual inspection channel.

[0014] Optionally, the building module includes: When a high-risk core area is identified and there are risks of both communication interruption and positioning inaccuracy, and the two are highly overlapping in space, the composite task is generated. The composite task instruction is assigned to a subset of beacons, which construct a multifunctional node at the target location that combines self-organizing network communication relay function and dynamic differential positioning service function. Some beacons are designated as positioning reference stations, while the remaining beacons share their differential data and synchronously construct communication links.

[0015] Optionally, the planning module includes: When the environment construction task is an emergency rescue task, the weight of maximizing network connectivity in the optimization objective is automatically raised to the highest priority. When the environment building task is a routine inspection task, the weight of minimizing global deployment energy consumption in the optimization objective is set to the highest priority.

[0016] Optionally, the fitting module includes: The main inspection channel is generated based on the geometric center of all mobile beacons in the deployed mobile beacon cluster; Branch inspection channels are generated based on the distribution characteristics of each beacon subgroup; The main inspection channel and the branch inspection channels together form a complete inspection path network with a tree topology.

[0017] Optionally, the adjustment module includes: Compare the instantaneous value deviation between the real-time sensing data and the expected state, and / or compare the degree of consistency between the changing trend of the real-time sensing data and the changing trend of the expected state. When either the instantaneous value deviation or the degree of agreement between the change trend and the instantaneous value deviation exceeds a preset tolerance, the reconstruction mechanism is triggered.

[0018] Optionally, after the allocation module, the following is included: In the mobile beacon cluster, each mobile beacon determines its role in task execution through distributed negotiation.

[0022] In this invention, by constructing a dynamic risk field integrating surface deformation, cable status, and real-time meteorological data, the system can accurately identify and quantify risks, thereby generating predictive inspection strategies. When real-time data deviates from the expected state of the digital twin model, the system automatically triggers a reconstruction mechanism, ensuring that the inspection path always matches the real environmental state, greatly improving the accuracy and safety of inspections. Using a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization for task allocation, combined with an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm for path planning, the system can intelligently adjust the weight and priority of optimization objectives according to the urgency of the task. This not only ensures the fastest possible restoration of communication and positioning in emergency situations but also minimizes global energy consumption in routine tasks, achieving precise and efficient resource allocation. Through the collaborative deployment and role negotiation of mobile beacon clusters, the system can quickly construct a temporary network with both communication relay and differential positioning functions in high-risk areas. A tree-like topology virtual inspection channel generated using B-spline curve fitting provides a smooth, coherent, and comprehensive guidance path for the inspection units. This structure ensures unobstructed main channels while enabling detailed inspection of risk areas through branch channels, forming an inspection network that combines global efficiency with local precision. By recording and analyzing the historical usage of virtual inspection channels and automatically adjusting channel parameters using machine learning algorithms, the system can learn from past experience and continuously optimize the quality of subsequently generated inspection channels. This ensures that parameters such as curvature, width, and safety margin better meet actual inspection needs, thereby achieving continuous evolution of system performance.

[0031] The terms “and / or” or “and / or” include all combinations of any one or more of the listed items.

[0032] Figure 1 This specification provides a schematic diagram of a cable fault detection method based on intelligent sensors, which may include: S110: Acquire surface and infrastructure deformation data provided by Beidou monitoring terminals, cable status data provided by sensors deployed on the cable body, and real-time meteorological grid data provided by meteorological data sources; In the specific implementation of this specification, the data includes millimeter-precision surface deformation and infrastructure settlement data provided by BeiDou monitoring terminals deployed on poles or the ground; cable temperature, strain, current carrying capacity, and other status data provided by distributed optical fiber sensors (DTS / DFOS) pre-laid on the cable body; and real-time meteorological grid data accessed from the National Meteorological Center, including precipitation, wind speed, lightning activity, etc.

[0033] S120: Input the surface and infrastructure deformation data, the cable status data, and the real-time meteorological grid data into the spatiotemporal geographic weighted regression model to generate a dynamic risk field in geographic grid units; In the specific implementation of this specification, surface and infrastructure deformation data, cable status data, and real-time meteorological grid data are unified into a spatiotemporal reference and then input into a pre-trained spatiotemporal geographic weighted regression (GTWR) model. This model can consider the heterogeneity of geographical locations and temporal nonstationarity, outputting a dynamic risk field covering the entire inspection area in units of geographic grids (e.g., 30m × 30m). The risk value of each grid is a comprehensive index between 0 and 1, quantifying the probability of geological disasters, cable faults, or inspection obstruction occurring at that location.

[0034] S130: Identify high-risk core areas in the dynamic risk field and generate corresponding environment construction tasks for each core area; In the specific implementation of this specification, a clustering algorithm (such as DBSCAN) is used to automatically identify high-risk core areas in the risk field, and a specific environment construction task is generated for each core area. The task content includes the target area coordinates, risk level and required functions.

[0035] Optionally, S130 includes: When a high-risk core area is identified and there are risks of both communication interruption and positioning inaccuracy, and the two are highly overlapping in space, the composite task is generated. The composite task instruction is assigned to a subset of beacons, which construct a multifunctional node at the target location that combines self-organizing network communication relay function and dynamic differential positioning service function. Some beacons are designated as positioning reference stations, while the remaining beacons share their differential data and synchronously construct communication links.

[0036] In the specific implementation of this specification, during the process of identifying high-risk core areas and generating environment construction tasks, the system performs a fine-grained judgment of risk types. For example, analysis reveals that a certain core area suffers from severe weather conditions that cause wireless signal attenuation and multipath effects that affect satellite signal reception due to heavy rainfall and geological instability. This indicates a combined risk of communication interruption and positioning inaccuracy in the area. In this case, the system no longer generates a single communication relay or positioning assistance task, but rather a composite task. The assigned beacon subset of this task requires the construction of a multi-functional node network within the target area. Specifically, beacons with stronger computing power and higher-precision positioning modules (such as UAVs equipped with high-precision boards) are prioritized as positioning reference stations, performing high-precision fixed-point observations in place and calculating differential correction information. The remaining beacons in the cluster act as rover stations, sharing the differential data to improve their own positioning accuracy while using self-organizing network communication modules (such as Mesh networks) to build a stable communication link with the reference stations and other beacons, thus simultaneously solving the two major challenges of positioning and communication in a single operation.

[0037] S140: The environment building task is assigned to the mobile beacon cluster via a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization; In a specific implementation of this specification, this task is advertised to a cluster of mobile beacons (e.g., a group of unmanned vehicles or drones) within the network using a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization.

[0038] Optionally, after S140, the following steps are included: In the mobile beacon cluster, each mobile beacon determines its role in task execution through distributed negotiation. The roles include a leading node, a secondary node, and a backup node. The mobile beacon assumes different functional responsibilities in subsequent path planning and task execution based on its different role.

[0039] In the specific implementation described in this specification, after a task is successfully assigned via the Distributed Contract Network protocol, the mobile beacon cluster does not immediately begin operation but enters a brief distributed negotiation phase. Each mobile beacon in the cluster, based on its own capabilities (such as computing power, sensor accuracy, and battery level) and its committed contribution during the bidding process, autonomously determines its role in executing the task by exchanging negotiation messages. The most capable beacon, designated as the core of the task, becomes the leading node, responsible for the final decision on path planning and cluster coordination; other beacons providing primary support become auxiliary nodes, obeying the instructions of the leading node; beacons with low remaining power or located at the edge may self-organize as backup nodes, remaining silent normally and taking over work when the leading node fails. After roles are determined, each mobile beacon will assume different functional responsibilities in subsequent path planning and task execution. For example, the leading node is responsible for calculating the global path and collecting data, while auxiliary nodes are responsible for relay communication and edge awareness, thereby achieving load balancing and functional optimization within the cluster.

[0040] S150: The mobile beacon cluster plans a cooperative movement path based on an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm, aiming to minimize global deployment energy consumption and maximize network connectivity, and moves to the location specified by the task. In the specific implementation described in this specification, each mobile beacon in the cluster bids based on its remaining power, the distance between its current location and the target area, and its own functional integrity. The protocol ultimately determines the winning subset of beacons with the goal of maximizing the probability of task completion and minimizing the total energy consumption of the cluster. The winning mobile beacon cluster then runs an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The fitness function of this algorithm considers both the total energy consumption of the mobile path and the connectivity of the communication network formed after deployment, planning an optimal cooperative mobile path to the target area.

[0041] Optionally, S150 includes: When the environment construction task is an emergency rescue task, the weight of maximizing network connectivity in the optimization objective is automatically raised to the highest priority. When the environment building task is a routine inspection task, the weight of minimizing global deployment energy consumption in the optimization objective is set to the highest priority.

[0042] In the specific implementation of this specification, when the mobile beacon cluster uses the improved Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to plan its path, the system dynamically adjusts the weights of the optimization objectives based on the urgency of the task. Specifically, the algorithm's fitness function is defined as: F = w1 * (total energy consumption) + w2 * (1 / network connectivity), achieving multi-objective optimization through weights w1 and w2. When the task type is identified as an emergency rescue task (such as troubleshooting after an earthquake or flood), the system automatically raises the weight w2, which maximizes network connectivity, to the highest priority (e.g., setting w1 = 0.2, w2 = 0.8). This means the algorithm will prioritize seeking the path that will enable the beacon cluster to form the most stable and powerful communication network after deployment, even if the path may be longer and more energy-intensive. Conversely, when the task is a routine inspection task, the system sets the weight w1, which minimizes global deployment energy consumption, to the highest priority (e.g., setting w1 = 0.8, w2 = 0.2). In this case, the algorithm will prioritize selecting the path with the shortest total travel distance and the lowest power consumption to achieve energy saving and extend equipment life.

[0043] S160: Using the location of the deployed mobile beacon cluster as control points, a virtual inspection channel is generated in the digital twin model using B-spline curve fitting technology. In the specific implementation of this specification, after the beacon cluster moves to the designated location and is deployed, its precise coordinates in the physical world (obtained through BeiDou differential positioning) are used as control points and transmitted to the digital twin model. The model uses B-spline curve fitting technology to pass through these control points and generate a smooth, continuous virtual inspection channel.

[0044] Optionally, S160 includes: The main inspection channel is generated based on the geometric center of all mobile beacons in the deployed mobile beacon cluster; Branch inspection channels are generated based on the distribution characteristics of each beacon subgroup; The main inspection channel and the branch inspection channels together form a complete inspection path network with a tree topology.

[0045] In the specific implementation of this specification, when generating a virtual inspection channel using B-spline curve fitting in the digital twin model, the specific steps are as follows: First, calculate the geometric center coordinates of all deployed mobile beacons. Using all these center points as a set of core control points, generate a smooth main inspection channel that runs through the main risk area through B-spline curve fitting. This channel constitutes the "main artery" of the inspection path. Second, for the beacon subgroups deployed separately to perform specific sub-tasks (such as multi-angle monitoring of a collapse point), generate branch inspection channels connected to the main channel, using the beacon positions of each subgroup as control points. Finally, the main inspection channel and multiple branch inspection channels are interconnected to form a comprehensive and clearly structured tree-like topology inspection path network, thereby achieving multi-level, blind-spot-free inspection coverage of complex risk areas.

[0046] S170: Based on the guidance of the virtual inspection channel, the inspection unit uses a fusion predictive control algorithm to perform local obstacle avoidance and trajectory smoothing, and collects real-time perception data. In the specific implementation of this specification, the inspection unit (such as an inspection robot or drone) that performs the actual inspection task uses this virtual channel as a reference path and adopts a fusion predictive control algorithm (such as combining model predictive control MPC with obstacle potential field method) to perform real-time local obstacle avoidance and trajectory smoothing. At the same time, it uses its own onboard sensors to collect real-time perception data (such as visible light images, infrared temperature, and local meteorological information).

[0047] S180: Compare the real-time sensing data with the expected state in the digital twin model. When the deviation exceeds the preset tolerance, trigger the redeployment of the mobile beacon cluster and the dynamic reconstruction of the virtual inspection channel.

[0048] In the specific implementation of this specification, the continuously collected real-time sensing data is compared with the expected state deduced from the digital twin model based on physical laws and historical data. Once a data deviation (such as the actual temperature far exceeding the model's expected value) is detected to exceed the preset tolerance, the system immediately determines that the current environment has changed significantly, automatically triggers the reconstruction mechanism, instructs the mobile beacon cluster to re-plan and deploy, and updates the virtual inspection channel accordingly, forming a complete "perception-decision-action" closed loop.

[0049] Optionally, S180 includes: Compare the instantaneous value deviation between the real-time sensing data and the expected state, and / or compare the degree of consistency between the changing trend of the real-time sensing data and the changing trend of the expected state. When either the instantaneous value deviation or the degree of agreement between the change trend and the instantaneous value deviation exceeds a preset tolerance, the reconstruction mechanism is triggered.

[0050] In the specific implementation of this specification, when comparing real-time sensing data with the expected state in the digital twin model, the system implements a dual verification mechanism. The first layer is instantaneous value deviation comparison, which directly compares the absolute or relative difference between the sensor reading (e.g., cable joint temperature of 75℃) and the model's expected value (e.g., 65℃). The second layer is trend consistency comparison, which analyzes whether the slope of change of real-time sensing data over a period of time (e.g., temperature rises by 2℃ per minute) significantly deviates from the trend predicted by the model (e.g., the model predicts that the temperature should rise by 0.5℃ per minute due to increased load). The system sets preset tolerances for these two types of comparisons (e.g., instantaneous temperature difference exceeding 15℃, or trend slope deviation exceeding 50%). In actual operation, as long as either the instantaneous value deviation or the trend consistency exceeds its corresponding tolerance, the system will immediately determine that the state is abnormal, trigger the reconstruction mechanism, and initiate path replanning and deployment.

[0051] Optional, also includes: Record the historical usage data for each of the aforementioned virtual inspection channels; Based on machine learning algorithms, the correlation between historical usage data and channel parameters is analyzed, and the curvature radius, channel width, and safety margin parameters of subsequently generated virtual inspection channels are automatically adjusted.

[0052] In the specific implementation of this specification, a file is created for each generated and used virtual inspection channel, recording its historical usage data, including but not limited to: the actual smoothness of the inspection unit passing through the channel (calculated using IMU data), the frequency of obstacles appearing around the channel, the task completion time, and whether reconstruction was triggered. Periodically, the system analyzes the correlation between this massive amount of historical usage data and channel parameters based on machine learning algorithms (e.g., using random forest or gradient boosting decision tree models). Through analysis, the model may discover patterns such as "when the radius of curvature is less than X meters, the probability of inspection unit jitter increases by 40%" or "in Y-type terrain, the channel width needs to be greater than Z meters to ensure safety." Based on these learned patterns, the system automatically adjusts the parameters of subsequently generated virtual inspection channels, such as appropriately increasing the radius of curvature to improve passage smoothness, widening the channel width to increase safety space, or dynamically setting a more adaptive safety margin, thereby enabling the path planning system to continuously evolve, becoming increasingly intelligent and efficient.

[0053] In this invention, by constructing a dynamic risk field integrating surface deformation, cable status, and real-time meteorological data, the system can accurately identify and quantify risks, thereby generating predictive inspection strategies. When real-time data deviates from the expected state of the digital twin model, the system automatically triggers a reconstruction mechanism, ensuring that the inspection path always matches the real environmental state, greatly improving the accuracy and safety of inspections. Using a distributed contract network protocol based on multi-objective optimization for task allocation, combined with an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm for path planning, the system can intelligently adjust the weight and priority of optimization objectives according to the urgency of the task. This not only ensures the fastest possible restoration of communication and positioning in emergency situations but also minimizes global energy consumption in routine tasks, achieving precise and efficient resource allocation. Through the collaborative deployment and role negotiation of mobile beacon clusters, the system can quickly construct a temporary network with both communication relay and differential positioning functions in high-risk areas. A tree-like topology virtual inspection channel generated using B-spline curve fitting provides a smooth, coherent, and comprehensive guidance path for the inspection units. This structure ensures unobstructed main channels while enabling detailed inspection of risk areas through branch channels, forming an inspection network that combines global efficiency with local precision. By recording and analyzing the historical usage of virtual inspection channels and automatically adjusting channel parameters using machine learning algorithms, the system can learn from past experience and continuously optimize the quality of subsequently generated inspection channels. This ensures that parameters such as curvature, width, and safety margin better meet actual inspection needs, thereby achieving continuous evolution of system performance.

The fitting module 60 is used to generate a virtual inspection channel in the digital twin model by using the location of the deployed mobile beacon cluster as control points and B-spline curve fitting technology. The smoothing module 70 is used by the inspection unit to perform local obstacle avoidance and trajectory smoothing based on the virtual inspection channel, using a fusion predictive control algorithm, and collecting real-time sensing data. The adjustment module 80 is used to compare the real-time sensing data with the expected state in the digital twin model. When the deviation exceeds the preset tolerance, it triggers the redeployment of the mobile beacon cluster and the dynamic reconstruction of the virtual inspection channel.

[0055] Optionally, the building module 30 includes: When a high-risk core area is identified and there are risks of both communication interruption and positioning inaccuracy, and the two are highly overlapping in space, the composite task is generated.
