This invention discloses a continuity testing
system and method for automotive wiring harnesses based on the human
antenna effect, belonging to the field of automotive wiring harness testing technology. The
system includes a
signal acquisition unit, a
signal amplification and filtering unit, an analog-to-
digital conversion unit, an FPGA
processing unit, a display and prompting unit, and an automatic
gain calibration module. It utilizes the
conductivity characteristics of the
human body to sense a 50Hz alternating
electric field in space, generating a weak electrical
signal. After amplification, filtering, and analog-to-
digital conversion, the FPGA
processing unit analyzes the
target signal amplitude change through FFT
frequency domain analysis and determines the wiring harness continuity status based on a preset threshold. The automatic
gain calibration module adapts to different usage scenarios, and the display and prompting unit intuitively outputs the test results. The testing method includes
system calibration, wiring harness preparation,
signal acquisition and conversion, FFT analysis and judgment, and result output steps, eliminating the need for hard-connection to a common ground or touching ground. This invention simplifies testing operations, improves testing efficiency and accuracy, adapts to various automotive wiring harness tests, and meets the intelligent needs of the
automotive manufacturing industry.
