The Underground Explosion Point Measurement Method Based on High-Precision Location of Energy Focus

Abstract

Source positioning based on energy time-inverse focus is a hot subject in the sphere of shallow underground source positioning. Due to the grave wave group aliasing and the complex, irregular geological structure typical of the shallow underground explosion, the reconstruction accuracy of the energy focus is low and thus the recognition of the focus is a difficult task, ultimately leading to a low accuracy of source positioning. To address the above problems, this article proposes a method based on deep learning energy focus recognition, whereby the process of recognizing and positioning the energy focus in an energy field is made equivalent to the end-to-end feature extraction of the energy field-energy focus. The time-variant characteristics of explosive vibration signals are put to use in the construction of an adaptive time window. First, within the time window and by combining cross-correlation and autocorrelation operations, a 3D energy field image sequence in the time-space domain is produced by grouped energy synthesis; second, a densely connected 3DCNN network is built and, through multiple layer span layer splicing, a higher repetitive use is made of the focus point features in the energy field images; third, a spatial pyramid pooling network is used to extract multi-scale features from different focus areas, which helps achieve high-precision focus recognition. Finally, numerical simulations and field tests were conducted.The results demonstrated that compared with the quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO)-based energy focus search method, the proposed one is more effectively in recognizing the coordinates of the focus in the energy field, thus allowing high-precision localization of shallow underground sources. This method is of some engineering application value in the field of underground source positioning.
