Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system inspection and wireless ad hoc network technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment and medium for power transmission channel inspection based on asynchronous ad hoc network. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage overhead power transmission, the safe and stable operation of transmission channels is the core guarantee for the reliable power supply of the power system. These transmission channels are usually characterized by long distances and traversing sparsely populated areas such as mountains and jungles. These areas generally suffer from weak or no communication signal coverage, which poses a great challenge to inspection work.

[0003] Current mainstream inspection and networking solutions have the following significant drawbacks: First, traditional manual inspections require inspectors to trek long distances through complex environments such as rugged terrain and dense vegetation, which not only consumes a large amount of manpower, material resources, and time, but also raises concerns about personal safety. Furthermore, inspection efficiency is low, making it difficult to conduct comprehensive and detailed inspections of long-distance transmission lines, easily overlooking potential safety hazards. Second, small aircraft have limited inspection ranges, and large aircraft generally rely on temporary leasing services, lacking systematic and regular operation. Faults may occur and worsen between inspections, making it impossible to detect potential dangers in a timely manner and affecting power transmission stability. Third, to overcome the shortcomings of irregular inspections, the routine deployment of drones for periodic inspections has become a trend. However, in complex areas with scarce infrastructure and poor signal coverage, sparsely deployed drones struggle to maintain continuous self-organizing networks, resulting in inspection information not being promptly collected at the monitoring center. This leads to problems of potential risks being "difficult to detect, late to detect, and slow to report," seriously affecting operational efficiency and safety. Fourth, while existing synchronous continuous self-organizing network solutions can guarantee network continuity and information transmission to a certain extent, they require the deployment of a large number of drone nodes to maintain network stability, resulting in high construction costs. At the same time, too many nodes will increase network complexity and communication resource requirements, and may reduce the quality and efficiency of information transmission in areas with poor signal coverage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for power transmission channel inspection based on asynchronous self-organizing networks, which can improve the efficiency of power transmission channel inspection.

[0005] This invention provides a power transmission channel inspection method based on an asynchronous ad hoc network, applicable to a first unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The power transmission channel inspection method includes: Receive inspection task instructions generated based on the geographical information of the power transmission channel and the performance parameters of the UAV, and collect data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instructions; If a second drone is detected during data acquisition, and the signal strength of the second drone is greater than or equal to a preset link establishment threshold, then a network is established with the second drone and a first communication window period is calculated. The data transmitted by the second drone within the first communication window period is received and stored. The second drone is a drone that is adjacent to the first drone but farther from the monitoring center. If a third drone is detected during data acquisition, and the signal strength of the third drone is greater than or equal to the link establishment threshold, then a network is established with the third drone and a second communication window period is calculated. During the second communication window period, the stored data is transmitted to the third drone. The third drone is a drone that is adjacent to the first drone and closer to the monitoring center. If the first drone is the drone closest to the monitoring center, the stored data will be transmitted to the monitoring center so that the monitoring center can analyze the data and generate inspection results; if the first drone is not the drone closest to the monitoring center, the collected and received data will be stored in the local storage device when the presence of the third drone is not detected.

[0006] This invention, through receiving inspection task instructions generated based on power transmission channel geographic information and UAV performance parameters and collecting data within the corresponding area, provides a data transmission foundation for subsequent UAV self-organizing networks. By networking with a second UAV when signal conditions are met and calculating the communication window period to receive its data, it can receive data stored by UAVs farther from the monitoring center. By networking with a third UAV when signal conditions are met and transmitting data to the third UAV, it can transmit its own stored data to UAVs closer to the monitoring center. By transmitting the stored data of the UAV closest to the monitoring center to the monitoring center, a chain-like relay transmission of inspection data from far to near can be completed. Compared to existing technologies that require the deployment of a large number of UAV nodes, this application can improve the efficiency of power transmission channel inspection.

[0007] Furthermore, after collecting data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instruction, the method further includes: The collected data is stored in the first storage device of the first drone, and the data is subjected to feature recognition. Based on the feature recognition results, potential data in the data is marked. The first storage device is the local storage device of the first drone.

[0008] The embodiments of the present invention can achieve local preliminary processing of data by storing collected data and performing feature recognition and hazard marking, and provide a basis for subsequent priority transmission.

[0009] Further, the calculation of the first communication window period includes: The first real-time position and first flight speed of the first UAV, and the second real-time position and second flight speed of the second UAV are obtained; Calculate the current distance between the first drone and the second drone based on the first real-time location and the second real-time location; Calculate the relative speeds of the first UAV and the second UAV in the direction of the line connecting them, based on the first flight speed and the second flight speed. Based on the current distance, the relative speed, and the preset communication distance threshold, the time from the current moment until the distance between the first UAV and the second UAV reaches the communication distance threshold is calculated, and the time is determined as the first communication window period.

[0010] This invention calculates the communication window period based on real-time location, speed, and communication distance thresholds, enabling the assessment of the communication duration between UAVs and providing a time planning basis for data transmission.

[0011] Further, receiving and storing the data transmitted by the second UAV during the first communication window includes: Based on the first communication window period and the first communication bandwidth between the first UAV and the second UAV, calculate the first transmission data volume corresponding to the first communication window period; If the first amount of transmitted data is greater than or equal to the amount of data stored in the second storage device of the second UAV, then all data stored in the second storage device will be transmitted and stored in the first storage device; wherein, the second storage device is the local storage device of the second UAV. If the first amount of data to be transmitted is less than the amount of data stored in the second storage device, then all the potential data stored in the second storage device will be transmitted and stored in the first storage device in order of the severity of the potential risks, until the amount of data transmitted is equal to the first amount of data to be transmitted.

[0012] The embodiments of the present invention calculate the amount of data that can be transmitted based on the communication window period and bandwidth, and prioritize the transmission of data according to the severity of the hidden danger, thereby ensuring the priority transmission of hidden danger information under limited communication conditions.

[0013] Further, the calculation of the second communication window period includes: The first real-time position and first flight speed of the first UAV, and the third real-time position and third flight speed of the third UAV are obtained. Calculate the current distance between the first UAV and the third UAV based on the first real-time location and the third real-time location; Calculate the relative speeds of the first UAV and the third UAV in the direction of the line connecting them, based on the first flight speed and the third flight speed. Based on the current distance, the relative speed, and the preset communication distance threshold, the time from the current moment until the distance between the first UAV and the third UAV reaches the communication distance threshold is calculated, and the time is determined as the second communication window period.

[0014] This invention calculates the communication window period based on real-time location, speed, and communication distance thresholds, enabling the assessment of the communication duration between UAVs and providing a time planning basis for data transmission.

[0015] Further, transmitting the stored data to the third UAV during the second communication window includes: Based on the second communication window period and the second communication bandwidth between the first UAV and the third UAV, calculate the second transmission data volume corresponding to the second communication window period; If the second amount of transmitted data is greater than or equal to the amount of data stored in the first storage device, then all data stored in the first storage device will be transmitted and stored in the third storage device of the third UAV; wherein, the third storage device is the local storage device of the third UAV. If the second amount of data to be transmitted is less than the amount of data stored in the first storage device, then all the potential data stored in the first storage device will be transmitted and stored in the third storage device in order of the severity of the potential risks, until the amount of data transmitted is equal to the amount of data to be transmitted.

[0016] The embodiments of the present invention calculate the amount of data that can be transmitted based on the communication window period and bandwidth, and prioritize the transmission of data according to the severity of the hidden danger, thereby ensuring the priority transmission of hidden danger information under limited communication conditions.

[0017] Furthermore, the step of transmitting the stored data to the monitoring center includes: All data stored in the first storage device is transmitted to the ground control station corresponding to the first UAV, so that the ground control station transmits all data to the monitoring center via a wired communication link.

[0018] This invention transmits data from a ground control station to a monitoring center via a wired link, ensuring the reliability and security of the final data transmission through a stable wired connection.

[0019] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a power transmission channel inspection device based on an asynchronous self-organizing network, applicable to a first unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The power transmission channel inspection device includes: a data acquisition module, a first networking module, a second networking module, and a data analysis module. The data acquisition module is used to receive inspection task instructions generated based on the geographical information of the power transmission channel and the performance parameters of the UAV, and to collect data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instructions. The first networking module is used to form a network with the second drone and calculate a first communication window period if a second drone is detected during data acquisition and the signal strength of the second drone is greater than or equal to a preset link establishment threshold, and to receive and store the data transmitted by the second drone within the first communication window period; wherein the second drone is a drone that is adjacent to the first drone and farther away from the monitoring center; The second networking module is used to form a network with the third drone and calculate a second communication window period if a third drone is detected during data acquisition and the signal strength of the third drone is greater than or equal to the link establishment threshold. During the second communication window period, the stored data is transmitted to the third drone. The third drone is a drone that is adjacent to the first drone and closer to the monitoring center. The data analysis module is used to transmit the stored data to the monitoring center if the first drone is the drone closest to the monitoring center, so that the monitoring center can analyze the data and generate inspection results; wherein, if the first drone is not the drone closest to the monitoring center, the collected and received data is stored in the local storage device when the existence of the third drone is not detected.

[0029] See Figure 1 To address the problem of requiring the deployment of a large number of drone nodes in existing technologies, an embodiment of the present invention provides a transmission channel inspection method based on an asynchronous self-organizing network, applicable to a first drone. The transmission channel inspection method includes steps S101 to S104: Step S101: Receive the inspection task instruction generated based on the geographical information of the power transmission channel and the performance parameters of the UAV, and collect data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instruction.

[0030] It should be noted that receiving inspection task instructions generated based on the geographical information of the power transmission channel and the performance parameters of the UAV, and collecting data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instructions, means that the UAV system pre-generates inspection task instructions for each UAV node based on the route, length, terrain features of the power transmission line, and performance parameters such as the UAV's endurance, flight speed, and communication distance. These instructions include the inspection route, take-off and landing locations, inspection cycle, and flight altitude for different locations. The flight altitude can be determined using a terrain complexity function. Dynamic adjustments are made to ensure that each UAV node can balance comprehensive inspection and image acquisition clarity. Under the control of the ground station, multiple UAV nodes autonomously fly to the inspection area according to the flight path and operation sequence in the inspection mission instructions, and use onboard visible light, infrared or lidar and other detection equipment to conduct comprehensive monitoring of things such as broken conductor strands, tilted towers, obstacles in passages, geological hazards or surrounding construction.

[0031] Preferably, after collecting data in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instruction, the method further includes: The collected data is stored in the first storage device of the first drone, and the data is subjected to feature recognition. Based on the feature recognition results, potential data in the data is marked. The first storage device is the local storage device of the first drone.

[0032] Specifically, the drone flies autonomously along a planned route without networking with other drones. Its onboard intelligent processing module performs preliminary processing on the collected information, using specific algorithms to identify and mark potential hazards. For example, it uses image feature extraction algorithms to identify broken strands in conductors, calculates the feature difference between the collected image and a standard image, and determines the collected image as a potential hazard when the feature difference exceeds a preset threshold.

[0033] Furthermore, the data collected by the drone node is stored on a local storage device to ensure that the data is not lost. At the same time, it is sent to the directly connected ground control station through a self-organizing network device. If there is a wired link between the directly connected ground control station and the monitoring center, the drone node deletes the data that has been successfully transmitted on the local storage device.

[0034] In particular, each drone node is equipped with a high-performance storage device, and the capacity of each storage device should be twice the amount of data that the corresponding drone is expected to collect during each inspection, to ensure sufficient storage of inspection information within a certain period.

[0035] Step S102: If a second drone is detected during data acquisition, and the signal strength of the second drone is greater than or equal to a preset link establishment threshold, then network with the second drone and calculate a first communication window period, receive and store the data transmitted by the second drone within the first communication window period; wherein, the second drone is a drone that is adjacent to the first drone and farther away from the monitoring center.

[0036] It should be noted that if a second drone is detected during data collection, and the signal strength of the second drone is greater than or equal to a preset link establishment threshold, then the drone will establish a network with the second drone and calculate a first communication window period. Receiving and storing the data transmitted by the second drone within the first communication window period means that the drone continuously monitors the signal strength of other drones during the inspection process. When it identifies a drone (i.e., the second drone) that is farther away from the monitoring center and whose signal strength reaches the threshold for establishing a stable communication link, it automatically establishes a link and network with the second drone, forming a temporary self-organizing network link. Subsequently, based on the real-time position, flight speed and heading of both parties, as well as the preset communication distance threshold, the estimated duration for which the two parties maintain effective communication is calculated, i.e., the first communication window period. Within the first communication window period, the first drone receives the inspection data it has collected from the second drone and stores the data in its local storage device, thereby realizing the relay aggregation of inspection data between drones and expanding the data coverage of a single inspection.

[0037] Preferably, the calculation of the first communication window period includes: The first real-time position and first flight speed of the first UAV, and the second real-time position and second flight speed of the second UAV are obtained; Calculate the current distance between the first drone and the second drone based on the first real-time location and the second real-time location; Calculate the relative speeds of the first UAV and the second UAV in the direction of the line connecting them, based on the first flight speed and the second flight speed. Based on the current distance, the relative speed, and the preset communication distance threshold, the time from the current moment until the distance between the first UAV and the second UAV reaches the communication distance threshold is calculated, and the time is determined as the first communication window period.

[0038] In one embodiment, suppose the first UAV and the second UAV are flying towards each other, and the distance between them when the signal strength reaches the link establishment threshold is . The relative speed between the two is The preset communication distance threshold is The first communication window period is The communication distance threshold is set based on the drone's signal coverage and communication capabilities.

[0039] Preferably, receiving and storing the data transmitted by the second UAV during the first communication window includes: Based on the first communication window period and the first communication bandwidth between the first UAV and the second UAV, calculate the first transmission data volume corresponding to the first communication window period; If the first amount of transmitted data is greater than or equal to the amount of data stored in the second storage device of the second UAV, then all data stored in the second storage device will be transmitted and stored in the first storage device; wherein, the second storage device is the local storage device of the second UAV. If the first amount of data to be transmitted is less than the amount of data stored in the second storage device, then all the potential data stored in the second storage device will be transmitted and stored in the first storage device in order of the severity of the potential risks, until the amount of data transmitted is equal to the first amount of data to be transmitted.

[0040] In one embodiment, the first communication bandwidth is set to... The first communication window period is The first transmitted data volume is .

[0041] Specifically, due to the massive amount of video data from real-time monitoring, and given the limited link bandwidth, priority is given to transmitting potential hazard information, which is assessed using a hazard severity evaluation function. calculate Value, by Values ​​are sorted from largest to smallest and transmitted. When bandwidth is sufficient, in addition to ensuring that the accumulated inspection data can be transmitted within the window period, the remaining bandwidth is used to transmit real-time monitoring video at an appropriate frame rate. When bandwidth is limited, while prioritizing the transmission of data indicating potential hazards, low frame rate video or still images are transmitted within the remaining bandwidth.

[0042] Step S103: If a third UAV is detected during data acquisition, and the signal strength of the third UAV is greater than or equal to the link establishment threshold, then network with the third UAV and calculate the second communication window period. During the second communication window period, the stored data is transmitted to the third UAV. The third UAV is a UAV that is adjacent to the first UAV and closer to the monitoring center.

[0043] It should be noted that if a third drone is detected during data collection, and the signal strength of the third drone is greater than or equal to the link establishment threshold, then a network is established with the third drone and a second communication window period is calculated. Transmitting the stored data to the third drone within the second communication window period means that the drone continuously monitors the signal strength of other drones during the inspection process. When it identifies a drone closer to the monitoring center (i.e., the third drone) whose signal strength reaches the threshold for establishing a stable communication link, it automatically establishes a link and network with the third drone, forming a temporary self-organizing network link. Subsequently, based on the real-time positions, flight speeds, and headings of both drones, as well as the preset communication distance threshold, the estimated duration for which they maintain effective communication is calculated, i.e., the second communication window period. Within the second communication window period, the third drone receives the inspection data it has collected from the first drone and stores this data in its local storage device, thereby realizing the relay aggregation of inspection data between drones and expanding the data coverage of a single inspection.

[0044] Preferably, the calculation of the second communication window period includes: The first real-time position and first flight speed of the first UAV, and the third real-time position and third flight speed of the third UAV are obtained. Calculate the current distance between the first UAV and the third UAV based on the first real-time location and the third real-time location; Calculate the relative speeds of the first UAV and the third UAV in the direction of the line connecting them, based on the first flight speed and the third flight speed. Based on the current distance, the relative speed, and the preset communication distance threshold, the time from the current moment until the distance between the first UAV and the third UAV reaches the communication distance threshold is calculated, and the time is determined as the second communication window period.

[0045] Preferably, transmitting the stored data to the third UAV during the second communication window includes: Based on the second communication window period and the second communication bandwidth between the first UAV and the third UAV, calculate the second transmission data volume corresponding to the second communication window period; If the second amount of transmitted data is greater than or equal to the amount of data stored in the first storage device, then all data stored in the first storage device will be transmitted and stored in the third storage device of the third UAV; wherein, the third storage device is the local storage device of the third UAV. If the second amount of data to be transmitted is less than the amount of data stored in the first storage device, then all the potential data stored in the first storage device will be transmitted and stored in the third storage device in order of the severity of the potential risks, until the amount of data transmitted is equal to the amount of data to be transmitted.

[0046] Step S104: If the first drone is the drone closest to the monitoring center, the stored data is transmitted to the monitoring center so that the monitoring center can analyze the data and generate inspection results; if the first drone is not the drone closest to the monitoring center, the collected and received data is stored in the local storage device when the existence of the third drone is not detected.

[0047] It should be noted that if the first drone is the closest drone to the monitoring center, then transmitting the stored data to the monitoring center so that the monitoring center can analyze the data and generate inspection results means that the drone closest to the monitoring center, through its directly connected ground control station, packages and transmits all inspection data stored in its local memory, including its own collected data and any data it may receive from the upstream second drone, to the monitoring center. After receiving the complete data packet, the monitoring center calls data analysis algorithms to perform fusion processing, hazard identification, and status assessment on the multi-source heterogeneous data, and automatically generates standardized power transmission channel inspection results, thereby completing the closed loop of this inspection task.

[0048] Preferably, transmitting the stored data to the monitoring center includes: All data stored in the first storage device is transmitted to the ground control station corresponding to the first UAV, so that the ground control station transmits all data to the monitoring center via a wired communication link.

[0049] In one embodiment, a complete power transmission channel inspection task is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, let Figure 2 Drone 1 in the text is the first drone. Figure 2Drone 2 in the text is the second drone, and the first drone is located away from the monitoring center (i.e. Figure 2 The control center is located near the first drone. The first drone transmits its own collected data and data received when networking with the second drone to the monitoring center via fiber optic cable connecting its direct connection to the ground control station and the monitoring center. The data received when networking with the second drone includes data collected by the second drone itself and data from drones adjacent to it but further from the monitoring center (i.e.,...). Figure 2 The data received by UAV 3 when it forms a network; similarly, the data transmitted by UAV 3 when it forms a network also includes the data collected by itself and the data transmitted from each UAV that is farther away from the monitoring center.

[0050] Specifically, the monitoring center can manually review the received hazard data. For hazard types that are difficult to determine directly through manual review, multi-dimensional data can be integrated for cross-analysis, including image feature comparison, historical record queries, and real-time sensor feedback, to ensure the accuracy of hazard identification results and the reliability of judgment, minimizing false alarms, missed alarms, or omissions of critical issues. For example, for the degree of tower tilt, high-definition images taken from multiple angles can be combined with triangulation principles and data analysis algorithms for precise calculation and auxiliary judgment.

[0051] In one embodiment, after receiving the inspection data, the monitoring center can integrate the high-definition video stream, visible light and infrared images, high-precision geographical location information and various airborne sensor parameters collected by the UAV according to the multi-source heterogeneous data fusion algorithm, construct a three-dimensional digital status model of the power transmission channel, and identify subtle deformations, appearance abnormalities and potential operational risks of the equipment through spatiotemporal sequence comparison and analysis.

[0052] In one embodiment, the monitoring center, based on the fused multimodal data, can automatically trigger tiered early warnings by combining preset transmission line safety operation thresholds and a historical fault case library: for emergency hazards (such as conductor breakage or severe tower tilt), real-time audible and visual alarms are pushed to the mobile maintenance terminal; for general hazards (such as insulator surface contamination or bird nest construction), a periodic inspection task list is generated, and maintenance personnel are assisted in formulating differentiated handling strategies and maintenance plans.

[0053] In one embodiment, the monitoring center can use image recognition technology to automatically analyze video and image data, identify potentially overlooked equipment anomalies, and immediately trigger an alarm and generate a detailed report containing location, type, and level once a problem is detected, so as to promptly notify maintenance personnel to follow up and handle the issue.

[0054] In one embodiment, the monitoring center can establish a standardized historical data management system to classify, store, and archive the raw data, algorithm processing results, and manual review records generated during the inspection process. It supports multi-condition retrieval and statistical analysis by time (monthly, quarterly), space (tower number, line section), and hazard type, providing systematic data support for power transmission channel health status assessment, life prediction, and power grid planning optimization.

[0055] This invention, through receiving inspection task instructions generated based on power transmission channel geographic information and UAV performance parameters and collecting data within the corresponding area, provides a data transmission foundation for subsequent UAV self-organizing networks. By networking with a second UAV when signal conditions are met and calculating the communication window period to receive its data, it can receive data stored by UAVs farther from the monitoring center. By networking with a third UAV when signal conditions are met and transmitting data to the third UAV, it can transmit its own stored data to UAVs closer to the monitoring center. By transmitting the stored data of the UAV closest to the monitoring center to the monitoring center, a chain-like relay transmission of inspection data from far to near can be completed. Compared to existing technologies that require the deployment of a large number of UAV nodes, this application can improve the efficiency of power transmission channel inspection.

[0056] Optionally, in this embodiment of the invention, after data collection is performed in the corresponding area according to the inspection task instruction, the method further includes: The collected data is stored in the first storage device of the first drone, and the data is subjected to feature recognition. Based on the feature recognition results, potential data in the data is marked. The first storage device is the local storage device of the first drone.

[0057] The embodiments of the present invention can achieve local preliminary processing of data by storing collected data and performing feature recognition and hazard marking, and provide a basis for subsequent priority transmission.

[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment of the invention, calculating the first communication window period includes: The first real-time position and first flight speed of the first UAV, and the second real-time position and second flight speed of the second UAV are obtained; Calculate the current distance between the first drone and the second drone based on the first real-time location and the second real-time location; Calculate the relative speeds of the first UAV and the second UAV in the direction of the line connecting them, based on the first flight speed and the second flight speed. Based on the current distance, the relative speed, and the preset communication distance threshold, the time from the current moment until the distance between the first UAV and the second UAV reaches the communication distance threshold is calculated, and the time is determined as the first communication window period.

[0059] This invention calculates the communication window period based on real-time location, speed, and communication distance thresholds, enabling the assessment of the communication duration between UAVs and providing a time planning basis for data transmission.
