Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural engineering technology, specifically to an adaptive water supply system for corn greenhouse cultivation. Background Technology
[0002] In greenhouse corn cultivation, water management directly impacts crop growth and yield. With the development of precision agriculture technology, automated irrigation systems are increasingly being applied to facility agriculture; however, achieving precise water supply based on the actual physiological needs of crops remains a technical challenge for the industry.
[0003] Currently, automated irrigation systems used in greenhouse cultivation mainly consist of soil moisture sensors, environmental monitoring devices, and actuators. These systems control the start and stop of irrigation equipment based on preset soil moisture thresholds, and some systems combine meteorological data to predict crop water requirements. Regarding environmental control, existing systems typically have independent ventilation, supplemental lighting, and shading devices, each controlled by a single environmental parameter. Existing technologies have significant shortcomings in practical applications. Traditional irrigation systems rely solely on surface soil moisture data, ignoring the changing distribution of crop roots at different growth stages, leading to water shortages in deep roots or excessive evaporation of surface moisture. Equipment protection mechanisms often rely on time delays or simple overcurrent protection, failing to accurately identify progressive faults such as mechanical jamming, easily causing serious consequences such as motor burnout. Environmental control devices lack collaborative working logic; for example, shading nets may not be retracted promptly in windy weather, or wet curtain systems require regular manual maintenance, increasing system operational risks and management costs. These problems limit the practical effectiveness of automated systems in corn greenhouse cultivation, necessitating a technological solution that comprehensively considers crop physiological characteristics, equipment safety, and coordinated environmental control.

[0040] The growth monitoring module 102 includes an infrared thermal imager and a stem flow sensor. The infrared thermal imager is fixed at the center of a longitudinal support on the top of the greenhouse, at a height of 4.5m, with a lens viewing angle of 15° to ensure the entire planting area is within the imaging range. The infrared thermal imager uses an uncooled focal plane detector with a resolution of 320×240 pixels, a temperature measurement range of 0℃ to 50℃, a temperature measurement accuracy of ±1℃, and a thermal sensitivity of 0.1℃. A polytetrafluoroethylene dust cover is installed in front of the lens, with a light transmittance of no less than 90%. The infrared thermal imager integrates a temperature compensation circuit to correct measurement errors caused by changes in ambient temperature in real time.

The heating element operates at a current of 0.3A, each heating cycle lasts 10 seconds, with a 5-minute interval between heating cycles. Temperature The components use high-precision platinum resistance thermometers with a measurement accuracy of ±0.1℃.
[0042] An infrared thermal imager acquires a complete canopy temperature distribution image every five minutes. The image data undergoes noise suppression processing to remove random interference. The processing unit extracts three key parameters from the temperature distribution image: average canopy temperature, canopy temperature coefficient of variation, and the proportion of high-temperature areas. These three parameters reflect the water stress status and transpiration efficiency of the maize plants.
[0043] A stem flow sensor continuously monitors water flow within the stem. Temperature difference data is collected every five seconds, and the average stem flow rate is calculated every 30 minutes. The stem flow rate calculation employs the principle of heat dissipation, compensating for the influence of ambient temperature. Calibration coefficients are determined through pot experiments, obtained by regression analysis of stem flow sensor measurements and actual transpiration rates.

[0047] The soil monitoring module 103 includes a soil temperature and humidity sensor, a soil conductivity sensor, and a soil pH sensor. The soil temperature and humidity sensor, based on the frequency domain reflectance principle, has monitoring layers at depths of 10cm, 20cm, and 30cm, with four monitoring points evenly distributed at each depth, for a total of 12 monitoring points covering the entire greenhouse planting area.

The soil pH sensor uses a glass electrode design, measures at a depth of 15cm, and has one monitoring point in each zone. The soil pH sensor has a measurement range of 4.0 to 9.0 with an accuracy of ±0.1 pH units.
[0048] Soil sensors are installed using pre-embedded sleeves. First, a vertical hole with a diameter of 40mm and a depth of 45cm is drilled using a soil drill. A PVC sleeve with an outer diameter of 35mm is then inserted, and the sleeve is surrounded by 0.5-1.0mm quartz sand at a density of 1.5g / cm³ to ensure good contact between the sensor and the surrounding soil. The probe of the soil temperature and humidity sensor is fixed to the inner wall of the sleeve, and the contact surface is coated with silicone grease with a thermal conductivity of 1.2W / (m·K). The sensing parts of the soil conductivity sensor and the soil pH sensor directly contact the undisturbed soil inside the sleeve. All sensor signal wires are led out from the top of the sleeve and connected to waterproof connectors. The connectors feature a double-sealed design: an inner nitrile rubber sealing ring and an outer epoxy resin filling and sealing layer. The signal wires are laid along a dedicated underground cable tray, 30cm deep, to prevent damage during agricultural machinery operations.
[0049] The soil monitoring module 103 calculates soil water potential parameters. Soil water potential is calculated based on soil moisture content, soil temperature, and soil texture characteristics, using a quadratic polynomial model.
[0050] In the formula, Soil water potential, in kilopascals; Soil volumetric moisture content, expressed as a percentage. , , This refers to the soil texture coefficient. The soil texture coefficient is determined based on the soil's mechanical composition: undisturbed soil samples are collected in-situ, and the percentage content of sand, silt, and clay particles is measured using a hydrometer. When the sand content is greater than 50%, the soil is classified as sandy soil, and the coefficient is [not specified]. The value is -0.25. The value is 3.8.

[0054] The root analysis module 104 includes a transparent observation tube, a linear scanning camera, and a root image processing unit. The transparent observation tube is made of polycarbonate, with an outer diameter of 60 mm, a wall thickness of 3 mm, an inner diameter of 54 mm, and a length of 120 cm. It is vertically buried within a 20 cm radius around the main stem of the corn plant, at a depth of 100 cm. The outer surface of the tube is treated with UV resistance, achieving a light transmittance of 92%, while the inner surface is coated with a hydrophobic anti-fog coating with a thickness of 5 µm. The space between the observation tube and the soil is filled with 0.5 mm quartz sand at a density of 1.4 g / cm³ to ensure unimpeded root growth.
[0055] The linear scanning camera is mounted on a stainless steel slide rail inside the transparent observation tube. The slide rail is driven by a 24V DC stepper motor, with a movement speed of 0.3m / s and a positioning accuracy of ±0.1mm. The linear scanning camera sensor has a width of 4096 pixels, a pixel size of 7µm, and a scanning frequency of 1000Hz. The illumination system uses two sets of... The light strips are located on both sides of the camera, with each group containing 20 strips. The LEDs are evenly distributed. The LED light source uses 5050 packaged white LEDs with a color temperature of 5500K±200K, a color rendering index Ra≥90, a single LED power of 0.2W, an operating current of 20mA, and an operating voltage of 3.2V±0.2V. Two sets of LED light strips are symmetrically arranged, with a spacing of 5cm between each set, ensuring that the illumination uniformity inside the observation tube is ≥85%. The light source driver uses a constant current driver IC with a PWM dimming frequency of 1000Hz and an adjustable duty cycle range of 0-100%.
[0056] The root system image processing unit performs image acquisition and analysis. Before each scan, the system performs white balance calibration using a white standard plate. Image acquisition is performed in complete darkness, with only root system enabled. Light source. First, the acquired raw root system image is preprocessed. The preprocessing includes: using a Gaussian filter kernel (size 5×5, standard deviation...). =1.0) to smooth and denoise the root system image to eliminate random noise during the acquisition process; then, contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization is used to enhance the local contrast between the root system and the background, where the block size is set to 8×8 pixels and the cropping limit threshold is set to 2.0, thereby highlighting root system details without amplifying background noise; finally, using The method binarizes the enhanced image, marking root pixels as foreground (value 1) and soil background pixels as background (value 0), thereby segmenting the root region.
[0057] Subsequently, the binarized root image is thinned to obtain the root skeleton. The thinning process employs an improved skeletonization algorithm, which consists of a two-stage iterative process: In the first stage, boundary pixels that simultaneously meet all of the following conditions are marked and deleted: (a) This pixel belongs to the foreground pixel in the current iteration; (b) The number of foreground pixels in the 8-neighborhood of this pixel is between 2 and 6; (c) Within the 8-neighborhood of this pixel, the number of transitions from background (0) to foreground (1) is 1; (d) At least one of its upper, right, and lower adjacent pixels is a background pixel; (e) At least one of its right, lower, and left adjacent pixels is a background pixel.
[0058] In the second stage, boundary pixels that simultaneously satisfy the conditions (a), (b), (c) and (f) where at least one of the adjacent pixels above, to the left, and below is a background pixel, and (g) where at least one of the adjacent pixels above, to the right, and to the left is a background pixel are marked and deleted.
[0059] The algorithm iteratively executes the two phases described above until no pixels are marked and deleted, leaving foreground pixels that form a root system skeleton with a width of one pixel. This algorithm can accurately extract the centerline of the root system, providing high-precision data for subsequent root length and density calculations.
[0060] Root identification is achieved through grayscale threshold segmentation, with the threshold using... The method is adaptively determined. The root system skeletonization process employs a morphological thinning algorithm to preserve root connectivity.
[0061] Root distribution depth The root distribution depth is determined through vertical root distribution analysis. The system divides the root image into 10cm intervals along the depth direction of the observation tube and calculates the root length density at each depth. The root distribution depth is defined as the center location of the deepest layer with a root length density greater than 0.1cm / cm³. The specific calculation method is as follows: Starting from the surface, layers are detected downwards. When the root length density of two consecutive depth layers is less than 0.1cm / cm³, the center location of the previous depth layer that meets this condition is the root distribution depth. For example, if the root length density is 0.15cm / cm³ in the 30-40cm depth layer, 0.08cm / cm³ in the 40-50cm depth layer, and 0.05cm / cm³ in the 50-60cm depth layer, then the root distribution depth is 35cm.
[0062] Furthermore, the determination of the root distribution depth includes a boundary case handling: if the root length density is greater than 0.1 cm / cm³ in all depth layers from the ground surface to a depth of 100 cm, then the burial depth of the transparent observation tube, i.e., 100 cm, is directly determined as the root distribution depth, and a prompt message (such as "The root system has exceeded the observation range") is generated to remind the user that there may be deeper roots and the depth of the observation tube is insufficient for complete monitoring.
[0063] Root length density is calculated based on the number of pixels in the root skeleton, and the formula is as follows:

The camera's effective pixel count is 4096. The cross-sectional area of the observation region... equal Scan depth The axial length of a single scan is 10 cm.
[0065] Root vitality is assessed using a color index method, calculated using the following formula:
[0066] In the formula, Root vitality index; This represents the average value of the green channel in the root zone; This represents the average value of the blue channel in the root region; 1 is added to the denominator to prevent division by zero. The root region is extracted using a mask to remove background interference. A root vigor level greater than 40% is considered vigorous, 30% to 40% is considered moderately vigorous, and less than 30% is considered lowly vigorous. The root vigor threshold was determined through a pot experiment, using 50 corn plants as samples for manual observation and image analysis comparison.
[0067] The root analysis module 104 performs a complete scan every 7 days, scheduled between 10 PM and 4 AM the following day, when soil temperature fluctuations are minimal, reducing the impact of environmental fluctuations on root morphology. Each complete scan takes 8 minutes and covers a depth of 100 cm. After scanning, the root analysis module 104 outputs analysis results, including root length density at each depth, root vitality index, and root distribution depth, which are transmitted to the control module 105 via an industrial Ethernet interface. Root distribution depth data is expressed in centimeters and rounded to the nearest integer.
[0068] The root analysis module 104 features an environmentally adaptable design: a built-in temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the tube, with an operating temperature range of 5 to 40°C. The system automatically shuts down when the temperature exceeds 40°C.

Anomaly detection employed a sliding window analysis method, calculating the standard deviation for 60 consecutive data points. When a single data point deviated from the window mean by more than three times the standard deviation, the data was marked as an anomaly and replaced with the average of the preceding and following valid data.
[0072] Irrigation water requirement calculation comprehensively considers crop growth stage, soil moisture status, and root distribution depth. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0073] In the formula, This refers to the irrigation water requirement, expressed in liters (L). The crop coefficient is determined based on the number of days the corn grows: 0.4 for 0 to 30 days after transplanting, 1.1 for 31 to 70 days, and 0.7 for 71 days to harvest. Crop evapotranspiration was calculated from meteorological station data and is expressed in mm / d. The area of a single irrigation zone is expressed in square meters. This represents the average volumetric water content of the current 0 to 30 cm soil layer, expressed as a percentage. This represents the field water holding capacity of the soil layer, obtained through soil sample testing, and is expressed as a percentage. This refers to the root depth correction coefficient. The determination adopts a dynamic and continuous method to smoothly respond to changes in root growth and avoid abrupt changes in irrigation volume caused by step-like variations. Specifically, a membership function is set, which is based on the root distribution depth provided by the root analysis module 104. As input variables, with depth correction coefficients For output variables; when When less than 30 cm, Explicitly take 0.6; when When it is between 30 and 60 centimeters From the formula The calculations show that a linear transition from 0.6 to 0.8 is achieved. when When it is greater than 60 cm, Explicitly take 1.0.
[0074] The ventilation volume calculation is based on the greenhouse heat balance principle, and the calculation formula is:
[0075] In the formula, The required ventilation volume is expressed in m³ / h. For air density, take 1.2 kg / m³. The specific heat capacity of air is taken as 1006 J / (kg·℃); This refers to the internal volume of the greenhouse, in m³. The temperature is set in degrees Celsius. This refers to the outside temperature of the greenhouse, in °C. This is used when calculating ventilation volume. When the ventilation equipment exceeds its maximum capacity, the system activates the evaporative cooling system.
[0076] The daily supplemental lighting duration is determined based on the cumulative insufficient amount of natural light, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0077] In the formula, The duration of supplemental lighting is expressed in hours (h). This refers to insufficient photosynthetically active radiation, expressed in mol / m³. , The daily cumulative photosynthetically active radiation required for maize is 15 mol / m³. This represents the cumulative amount of natural sunlight received that day. The average photosynthetically active radiation intensity of the supplemental lighting fixtures at the crop canopy is expressed in μmol / (m²·s) and was obtained through actual measurement using a photonic quantum sensor. The supplementary lighting device will not be activated if the time is less than 0.5 hours.
[0078] The control module 105 adopts a three-layer control architecture. The bottom real-time control layer has a control cycle of 1 second and is responsible for sensor data acquisition, actuator status monitoring, and direct response to emergency fault protection (such as mechanical jamming or short circuit). The middle equipment control layer has a control cycle of 60 seconds and is responsible for the switching on and off of equipment such as irrigation valves, ventilation fans, and supplemental lighting, as well as the issuance of setpoints. The top-level strategy control layer has a control cycle of 24 hours and is responsible for growth model prediction, resource optimization allocation, and user interaction. Specifically, the top-level strategy control layer automatically updates the irrigation formula in the middle equipment control layer daily based on the latest root distribution depth uploaded by the root analysis module 104. Coefficient, and updated based on the number of growth days. The value will be updated. and The value is sent to the middle control layer for periodic use. The power management unit supports 12 to 24V DC input, with a maximum output power of 100W, and has a built-in overvoltage protection circuit with an operating voltage of 28V and an overcurrent protection current of 5A. The control module 105 is equipped with a backup power supply, using a 12V 7A lithium iron phosphate battery, which can operate continuously for 10 hours when the external power supply is interrupted.
[0079] Data storage employs a hierarchical management strategy: raw sensor data is stored for 7 days, hourly statistical values are stored for 30 days, and daily statistical data is permanently stored. Data is uploaded to the cloud server every 30 minutes, and the uploaded content includes environmental parameter statistics and equipment operating status. The control module 105 has an aluminum alloy housing with an IP65 protection rating and operates in ambient temperatures ranging from -10°C to 60°C and relative humidity from 10% to 95%.
[0080] Soil field water holding capacity The results were obtained through field measurements: After thorough irrigation, the soil was covered with mulch to prevent evaporation. Soil samples from the 0-30cm layer were collected 24 hours later, and the moisture content was determined using the oven-drying method. (Reference crop evapotranspiration) The temperature, humidity, wind speed, and sunshine duration provided by the weather station were used to calculate the optimal temperature for the evaporative cooling system, according to the FAO-recommended standard method. The activation temperature thresholds for the evaporative cooling system were set based on the corn's growth stages: 28℃ in the early growth stage, 30℃ in the middle growth stage, and 29℃ in the later growth stage.

[0082] See attached document Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a simulation verification diagram of a current monitoring fault detection algorithm according to an embodiment of the present invention. The execution module 106 includes an irrigation execution unit, a ventilation execution unit, a supplementary lighting execution unit, and a shading execution unit. The irrigation execution unit consists of a variable frequency water pump, a pressure sensor, a flow meter, and zone solenoid valves. The variable frequency water pump has a power of 1.5 kW, a head of 30 m, and a flow range of 0 to 10 m³ / h. The pressure sensor has a measurement range of 0 to 0.6 MPa and an accuracy of ±0.01 MPa. The flow meter is electromagnetic, with a diameter of 25 mm, a measurement range of 0.1 to 10 m³ / h, and an accuracy of ±1%. Each irrigation zone is equipped with an independent solenoid valve. The valve body is made of brass, with a working pressure of 0.2 to 0.5 MPa and a response time of 0.5 s. The switching frequency of the solenoid valve is limited to no more than 10 times per hour to avoid frequent start-stop damage to the equipment. The irrigation flow rate is determined according to the irrigation water demand calculated by the control module. The duration of a single irrigation is controlled by real-time accumulation through the flow meter. When the accumulated flow reaches the set value, the solenoid valve is closed.
[0083] The ventilation unit includes a negative pressure fan, a wet curtain system, and temperature and humidity sensors. The negative pressure fan has a power of 0.75kW, an air volume of 25,000 m³ / h, an air pressure of 80Pa, and a noise level of 65dB. The wet curtain system uses 7090 type honeycomb paper wet curtains, 10cm thick, 1.8m high, with an effective evaporation area of 25m². The wet curtain water pump has a flow rate of 3m³ / h and a head of 5m. The wet curtain water circulation system is equipped with a water level sensor and a conductivity sensor. When the water level is below 10cm or the conductivity exceeds 2000μS / cm, the system automatically replenishes fresh water. Two sets of ultrasonic wind speed sensors are installed on the top of the greenhouse to monitor the external wind speed in real time. When either sensor detects a wind speed exceeding 10m / s for 10 seconds, the shade net automatically retracts.
[0084] Furthermore, the dual-redundancy judgment logic of the wind speed sensor in the shading execution unit is as follows: when the difference between the measured values of the two wind speed sensors is detected to exceed 3 m / s for a continuous period of 5 seconds, the system determines that the sensor is abnormal rather than the actual wind speed difference, generates a sensor fault alarm, suspends the automatic retraction function based on wind speed, and uses the lower wind speed value of the two sensors as the basis for the system's safety judgment to avoid the shading net failing to retract or being retracted incorrectly due to sensor failure.
[0085] The speed of the variable frequency water pump is controlled by a pressure closed-loop system. The speed calculation formula is as follows:
[0086] In the formula, The current set speed, in r / min; The rated speed of the water pump is 1450 r / min; To set the pipeline pressure, the unit is MPa; The rated pressure is 0.4 MPa. The set pressure... The specific logic for dynamically adjusting the number of irrigation zones is as follows: Before starting irrigation, the control module selects the corresponding set pipeline pressure based on the number of solenoid valves to be opened simultaneously in the current irrigation plan. 0.3 MPa is used for single-zone irrigation, 0.4 MPa for two zones simultaneously, and 0.5 MPa for three or more zones simultaneously. During irrigation, if it is necessary to add or remove irrigation zones due to changes in the irrigation plan, the system will immediately re-determine the pressure. The rotational speed is calculated to maintain stable pipeline pressure.
[0087] The cooling effect of the evaporative cooling pads is evaluated by measuring the temperature difference. When the temperature difference is less than 2°C for 30 consecutive minutes, the system prompts the system to clean and maintain the evaporative cooling pads. The temperature difference is the difference between the readings of the temperature sensor in front of the evaporative cooling pads and the temperature sensor behind the evaporative cooling pads.
[0088] The supplementary lighting unit adopts a full spectrum. Plant grow lights, full spectrum The spectral distribution of the plant grow lights is 400-700nm, with red light (660nm) accounting for 45%, blue light (450nm) for 15%, far-red light (730nm) for 5%, and white light for 35%. The lights are installed in a 1.5m × 1.5m grid, with the height from the crop canopy dynamically adjusted according to the corn's growth stages: 1.5m for seedlings, 1.2m for jointing, and 1.0m for tasseling. The installation density is determined based on the corn variety: 4 lights per 10m³ for compact varieties and 6 lights per 10 square meters for sparse varieties. The lights are driven by a constant current power supply with a constant output current of 700mA. The luminaire features 0 to 100% dimming capability with a dimming accuracy of 1%. Heat dissipation is achieved using an aluminum finned heat sink with natural convection, ensuring the surface temperature does not exceed 70℃.
[0089] The shading unit includes a shading net, a film-rolling motor, and limit switches. The shading net is made of woven aluminum foil, with a shading rate of 65% and a tensile strength of 300 N / cm. The film-rolling motor has a power of 0.37 kW, a torque of 50 N·m, and a running speed of 1 m / min. The limit switches are mechanical travel switches with an accuracy of ±1 cm. The system is equipped with two wind speed sensors, installed on the east and west sides of the greenhouse top, respectively, with a wind speed measurement range of 0 to 30 m / s and an accuracy of ±0.5 m / s. When both sensors detect a wind speed exceeding 10 m / s for 10 seconds, the shading net automatically retracts to the fully closed position.
[0090] Each execution unit of execution module 106 is connected to control module 105 via industrial Ethernet, with a communication cycle of 100 milliseconds. Actuator status feedback includes switch status, fault signals, and operating parameters. Fault detection employs a composite diagnostic method, adding fault prediction functionality in addition to current monitoring. Specifically, the startup process of irrigation pumps and ventilation fans is monitored. If the current sensor does not detect a base value exceeding 20% of the rated current within 0.5 seconds after the startup command is issued, it is determined to be a "phase loss or open circuit fault." If the current rapidly rises to over 400% of the rated current within 0.5 seconds after startup, it is determined to be a "short circuit fault," and the startup process is immediately terminated. For the sunshade motor, the auxiliary contacts of its forward and reverse control contactor are monitored to determine whether the two contactors are energized simultaneously. If they are energized simultaneously, it is determined to be a "control logic conflict fault," and the control power supply is immediately disconnected. During normal operation, if the operating current exceeds 150% of the corresponding rated value for 3 seconds, the system determines it to be a mechanical jamming fault and cuts off the power supply. All actuators are equipped with manual operating handles. The manual and automatic modes are switched via a mechanical interlock switch, which automatically cuts off the motor power when switching.
[0091] The power supply system of execution module 106 adopts a three-phase 380V power supply, with a 32A circuit breaker and a 30mA residual current device (RCD) configured for the main incoming line. Each execution unit has an independent power distribution circuit: 16A for the irrigation system, 10A for the ventilation system, 20A for the supplemental lighting system, and 6A for the shading system. The water pump motor is equipped with an electronic soft starter, with the starting current limited to within three times the rated current and a starting time of 5 seconds.
[0092] The irrigation solenoid valve adopts a pilot-operated structure, with a nominal diameter of 25mm and a minimum opening pressure of 0.05MPa. The solenoid valve coil operates at 24V DC, with a holding power of 5W, a starting instantaneous power of 30W, and a duration of 100ms. A 1mm diameter drain hole is designed at the bottom of the solenoid valve body to prevent freezing and cracking in winter.
[0093] The evaporative cooling pad frame is made of 304 stainless steel, with guide channels spaced 20cm apart on the inner wall to ensure even water distribution. Material, pipe diameter 32mm, adjustable ball valve installed at the end of the pipe to balance the water flow in each area.

The optical design of the luminaire can be selected by those skilled in the art based on the spectral requirements of the crop.
