[0032] The model of the central processing unit can be Cortex-A53, the button 17 comprises a "▲" and a "▼", when starting detection, the signal amplitude data is observed, the dB value is adjusted through the "▲" or "▼" key, the data is ensured to be between 500-900 for being optimal, and the subsequent detection is sequentially performed under the condition that the dB value is basically unchanged; when the receiver approaches above the pipeline, the liquid crystal display screen 16 can directly display the pipeline position below the receiver; the or arrow on the two sides of the simulated pipeline prompts to move right or left; when the receiver is just above the pipeline, the left and right arrows appear at the same time, and thus the pipeline can be quickly tracked.

[0035] It should be noted that the horizontal antenna refers to an antenna whose main axis direction is parallel to the ground. In cable detection, the horizontal antenna is mainly used to receive electromagnetic fields propagating parallel to the ground. When using a horizontal antenna for detection, it is easier to find the direction of the cable, because the magnetic field generated by the cable is strongest directly above it, and the horizontal antenna can effectively capture the signal strength changes in this direction, thus helping the operator to determine the direction of the cable. The vertical antenna refers to an antenna whose main axis direction is perpendicular to the ground. In cable detection, the vertical antenna is mainly used to receive electromagnetic fields propagating perpendicular to the ground. The vertical antenna is particularly useful for determining the exact location of the cable, because when the receiver is directly above the cable, the signal strength received by the vertical antenna will reach a maximum value. Therefore, by moving the receiver and observing the changes in signal strength, the exact location of the cable can be accurately located. In actual operation, the horizontal antenna and the vertical antenna are often used in combination to achieve the best detection effect. First, the horizontal antenna can be used to roughly determine the path of the cable. Then, switch to the vertical antenna and move the receiver along this path until the strongest signal point is found, which is the exact location of the cable. The compass antenna, also known as a magnetometer or electronic compass antenna, is mainly used to detect the direction of the Earth's magnetic field. This antenna plays a key role in cable detection receivers, helping operators to determine direction and orientation, thus more accurately locating underground cables or other targets.

[0036] The cable path identification signal receiver is provided with two horizontal antennas and two vertical antennas, namely a first horizontal antenna, a second horizontal antenna, a first vertical antenna, and a second vertical antenna. The two antennas can receive signals respectively. By comparing the signal strengths received by the two antennas, the weak signal can be more accurately identified, and the overall sensitivity can be improved. By comparing the signals received by the two antennas, background noise can be better identified and filtered out, thus improving the signal-to-noise ratio.

[0037] Secondly, the model of the first horizontal antenna and the second horizontal antenna can be RD8000 series antenna, the model of the first vertical antenna and the second vertical antenna can be vLoc3-Pro series antenna, and the model of the compass antenna can be HMC5883L; the mixer can be TRF3703, which is used to convert the high-frequency signals collected by the antenna into lower-frequency intermediate-frequency signals for subsequent processing and amplification; the filter can be INA849, which only allows signals within a specific frequency range to pass through, thereby removing interference of other frequencies; the amplifier model can be LMH6629, which is used to amplify the intermediate-frequency signals to a high enough level for further processing and analysis; the A / D converter model can be ADS1256A / D, which, when used with the mixer, filter and amplifier, converts the high-frequency signals received during the mixing stage into intermediate-frequency signals. The A / D converter converts these intermediate-frequency signals into digital signals for further digital filtering and processing, and the filter can more accurately remove unwanted frequency components to improve signal purity, and the amplifier is preferably amplified without introducing additional noise.

[0038] The display control instrument is also provided with a lithium battery pack, which is electrically connected with the central processor to supply power to each component. In addition, the display control instrument is also provided with a Type_C USB port 18. When charging is needed, the plug of the charger is connected to the Type_C USB interface, and the AC plug of the charger is connected to the AC 220V / 110V socket.

[0039] It also includes a loudspeaker electrically connected with the central processor, which is mainly used to provide audio output to help the operator locate the position of the underground cable. When the receiver approaches the target cable, it will receive the electromagnetic signals emitted from the cable. As the distance changes, the signal strength will also change. By converting this change into an audible sound signal, the operator can determine the distance from the target object according to the volume of the sound.
