Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of non-contact vibration measurement technology, and in particular to a method, system, medium, and device for estimating vibration displacement using frequency-modulated continuous wave radar based on dynamic demodulation. Background Technology

[0002] In scenarios such as structural health monitoring and rotating machinery condition monitoring, vibration displacement is a crucial physical quantity characterizing the dynamic response of a structure. Frequency-modulated continuous wave radar combines range resolution with phase-sensitive measurement capabilities, enabling subwavelength-level displacement extraction by tracking the phase evolution of continuously swept frequency echoes. However, existing processing procedures typically require first estimating the beat frequency and then demodulating the echoes to extract the phase. If the same fixed beat frequency is used for demodulation across all sweeps, a phase deviation will accumulate linearly over time when the actual beat frequency changes slowly or when there are errors in the beat frequency estimation; this deviation spans across... A phase jump will then occur, significantly distorting the displacement reconstruction results. On the other hand, high-resolution beat frequency estimation methods (such as Chirp-Z transform) are computationally intensive, making them difficult to meet the needs of real-time or large-scale data processing.

[0133]

[0134] Ultimately, the vibration displacement can be obtained. Example 1

[0135] This disclosure provides a high-precision method for estimating small vibration displacements using frequency-modulated continuous wave radar based on dynamic demodulation. The method includes the following steps:

[0136] Step 1: Use as follows Figure 2 The fixed-frequency continuous-wave radar shown collects echo signals from the surface of a vibrating object. The radar employs a single-transmitter, single-receiver structure, installed facing the vibrating object (which vibrates along the radar's line-of-sight). The radar's transmission frequency is set. sampling frequency ,bandwidth Frequency sweep cycle And collect beat frequency echo signals.

[0137] Step 2: Amplify, down-convert, and low-pass filter the echo signal received by the microwave radar to form a two-dimensional baseband beat frequency signal. .

[0138] Step 4: For the first The baseband beat frequency signal of one sweep cycle ( Perform dynamic demodulation;

[0139] Step 5: Perform phase unrolling on the updated phase sequence;

[0140] Step 6: Convert the phase into a vibration displacement sequence in the target line of sight direction.

[0141] The displacement estimation results for vibration displacement being a single sine wave are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it has good displacement estimation results; the displacement estimation error of the vibration displacement as a single sine wave is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, it exhibits a small estimation error. To demonstrate the robustness of the proposed method, an experiment was conducted with multisine vibration displacements. The displacement estimation results for multisine vibration displacements are shown below. Figure 5 As shown, it has good displacement estimation results; the displacement estimation error of the vibration displacement is multi-sinusoidal, as shown in the figure. Figure 6 As shown, it has a small displacement estimation error.

[0142] Furthermore, traditional FMCW radar vibration measurement methods typically demodulate all sweep cycles using a fixed beat frequency. If the initial beat frequency estimation is flawed, or if the target distance changes slightly due to vibration, causing the true beat frequency to drift slowly over a longer time interval, the demodulated phase will generate an error that accumulates linearly over time. When this error exceeds ± This can cause phase jumps, severely distorting the displacement reconstruction results. This invention, however, calculates the phase difference between adjacent sweep cycles in real time. And based on physical relationships ( This is precisely mapped to a beat frequency correction value. This mechanism enables the demodulation beat frequency to be updated recursively. The demodulation frequency dynamically tracks the changing trend of the actual beat frequency, fundamentally suppressing the generation of phase accumulation error and effectively inhibiting phase jump phenomena.

[0143] Secondly, this dynamic demodulation process does not rely on computationally complex high-resolution beat frequency estimation algorithms (such as Chirp-Z transform). The initial beat frequency only needs to be roughly obtained within the target range gate using a zero-filled FFT, and the subsequent accuracy is continuously improved by the phase feedback loop. This not only significantly reduces the overall computational burden but also enhances the robustness of the algorithm under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions—because phase information still has high sensitivity at low SNR, and the differential characteristics of the phase difference can effectively suppress common-mode noise.

[0144] Furthermore, a high-precision initial phase is extracted using a maximum likelihood phase estimator, and the phase is re-demodulated after each beat frequency update to obtain a more accurate current phase, forming a closed-loop optimization process of "estimation – feedback – correction – re-estimation". This process ensures the continuity and accuracy of the phase sequence, providing a foundation for subsequent phase unfolding and subwavelength shift conversion. This provides a reliable foundation.

[0145] In summary, this dynamic demodulation mechanism cleverly transforms traditional open-loop demodulation into a closed-loop adaptive system by using phase evolution information in reverse for beat frequency correction. While ensuring low computational complexity, it effectively solves the phase distortion problem in practical scenarios such as slowly changing beat frequency and low signal-to-noise ratio, and achieves high-precision and highly robust estimation of small vibration displacements.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
