Sensor Design Based on Wireless Measurement of Corrosion Monitoring of Reinforced Concrete Structure

Abstract

Reinforced concrete structures are widely used in modern buildings such as buildings, bridges, and tunnels. However, the structural damage caused by reinforcement corrosion seriously affects the service life of the buildings. Because the corrosion of reinforcement in concrete is a very slow process, the continuous detection of reinforcement corrosion is very important. In view of the slow development of steel corrosion detection equipment in China, which cannot meet the application requirements of concrete structures in China, wireless monitoring technology has more advantages than traditional monitoring technology. In this paper, combined with wireless transmission technology, a concrete reinforcement corrosion detection system based on wireless sensor network is designed. Embedded sensors based on the principle of electromagnetic coupling are used to collect steel corrosion information. It is determined that the 16-bit ultralow power consumption microcontroller MSP430F149 is the main control chip, the AD9850 based on DDS technology is the signal generation chip, and the nRF905 is the detection circuit scheme of the wireless transceiver chip. The star network is determined by polling the entire network topology and MAC protocol. The embedded sensor is designed through simulation. This article discusses the principle of using embedded sensors to detect steel corrosion and determines the feasibility of its low-cost implementation. The embedded sensor and steel corrosion detection system were tested. The simulation method of the embedded sensor is verified through actual measurement. The test results show that the system network is normal and all parts work stably, which can meet the requirements of the project.
