Description

Tree electronic altimeter jitter error eliminating method based on mode
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of tree electronic height measurement, and particularly relates to a method for eliminating dithering errors of a tree electronic height meter based on a mode, which is solved by means of a software technology.
Background
In the work that the height of trees cannot be measured by forest survey, except for some young trees with short trunks, a special tree height measuring instrument is needed in most cases. Currently, height meters used in forestry, whether mechanical or electronic, are designed according to the tangent theorem in trigonometric relations, and the basic principle and algorithm thereof is h-Ltan a (fig. 4), and the general principle and algorithm thereof is h-L (tan α + tan β) (fig. 5). The reason why the general algorithm has one more beta angle parameter is that fig. 4 is only an ideal state, and in practical situations, people cannot lie on the horizontal ground to measure like fig. 4; due to the high forest density and uneven ground, the most appropriate measurement method is only to divide the tree height h into h by a horizon line as shown in fig. 51And h2The two parts are measured respectively and finally pass through h1+h2The method of (1) calculates the total height h of the tree.
As a theoretical basis and a practical basis for tree height measurement, the method and the process are realized by a tree electronic height measuring instrument which integrates laser distance measurement, angle sensing and program calculation. When the electronic height indicator for trees is used for height measurement, the tree height value can be directly displayed through the display screen only by aiming at the treetop, the trunk and the tree base respectively and pressing the keys to acquire data, so that the electronic height indicator for trees is a rapid and efficient future height measuring instrument. However, although the scientific and technological advantages of the tree electronic altimeter are obvious, the products of the tree electronic altimeter have been on the market for more than ten years, but the popularization and application of the tree electronic altimeter are very slow. The reason is mainly because the design and manufacture of the tree electronic altimeter only pay attention to the basic principle and appearance in the past, but the research on countermeasures is lacked in the aspects of user experience, convenience, error elimination and precision improvement, so that the basic level investigators lack trust and are unwilling to use the tree electronic altimeter.
In order to change the situation, a patent application (201921447957.5) of a three-key type tree electronic height measuring instrument is provided in 2019, namely 9.8.A three-key control technology is adopted, so that the usability, credibility and reliability of the tree electronic height measuring instrument are greatly improved, and a good technical support is provided for the update and the replacement of the tree electronic height measuring instrument in the forestry industry. However, it should be appreciated that in this design, the problem of jitter error in the aiming measurement of the hand-held instrument remains unsolved, and the direct result is: when the handheld instrument aims at the same target to carry out secondary measurement, a small error may exist in the measurement result due to the handheld shaking phenomenon, obviously, the error inevitably exists in the measurement of three basic parameters of L, alpha and beta, and the error is transmitted and accumulated to form the final tree height measurement error. In addition to the effort of improving the measurement accuracy through the hardware anti-shake technique, the present invention is also directed to the above background art, whether the error can be eliminated or reduced through the software programming technique.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problems, the invention discloses a mode-based method for eliminating treetop jitter errors. The method solves the problem by taking time delay measurement, automatic recording, mode calculation and logic programming as lines, and comprises the following specific steps:
(1) aiming at a target, pressing a measuring button, and keeping the measurer in an aiming state for a period of time t in situ;
(2) in time t, the measuring circuit continuously and automatically acquires n instantaneous readings, the interval time is t/n, and the acquired n instantaneous readings are automatically stored as a measured value array;
(3) calculating the mode of the measurement value array;
(4) taking the obtained mode as an ideal measurement value;
(5) and respectively and completely acquiring ideal measured values of the tip angle alpha, the trunk distance L and the base angle beta according to the steps, starting a subsequent calculation program, calculating the tree height according to a mathematical method of a formula h which is L (tan alpha + tan beta), and finishing the measurement process.
In the invention, the t value setting of the 'measurer keeps the aiming state for a period of time in situ' is related to the sensitivity and the precision of the used hardware, and the t value range can be set between 1 and 3 seconds under the prior art condition. In addition, in the invention, a buzzer is arranged in the height indicator, and the height indicator can synchronously emit buzzing prompt sound which is working within a period of measurement time t when the measurer keeps the aiming state in situ.
Theoretical explanation about the use of the mode for the elimination of the jitter error of the tree electronic altimeter:
(1) because the hand-held shaking phenomenon objectively exists, parameter measurement errors are inevitable when the hand-held electronic tree height indicator carries out one-time aiming measurement, and the traditional instrument cannot solve the problem;
(2) if the measurement is changed to a continuous measurement within a period of time t, and the computer automatically collects n data within the period of time t, the interval time is t/n, then it will be found that: as long as the surveyor aims at the target and does not move all the time t, the n data continuously collected by the computer have jitter change, but the most frequent data is the target value (or the data interval extremely close to the target value) required by the surveyor, because the target | is the target when the surveyor tries to aim in the time t!
(3) Even if slight deviation of the aiming position exists when the target is aimed, the deviation is inevitable in the handheld state, and the mode can still reflect the optimal measuring position and parameter measuring result in the handheld state;
(4) the mode method can thoroughly solve accidental errors caused by handheld shaking in the conventional measurement, because the measured value with large deviation cannot become a mode when a measurer carefully aims, and can be automatically rejected by an algorithm.
Compared with the prior art, the key point of the invention is that the problem of hand-held shaking error of the tree electronic height indicator is solved by using a mathematical algorithm, the technology can be used for the traditional single-key tree electronic height indicator and a new generation of three-key tree electronic height indicator, and has the outstanding advantages of low cost and easy realization as a pilot technology for improving the performance of the tree electronic height indicator because no special requirements are required on hardware.

Detailed Description
The following description of the present invention is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings.
1. Referring to fig. 1, the implementation of the present invention still depends on the tree height measuring instrument of the prior art as a basis, and although the main subject of the present invention is a program control problem, since the intermediate process needs to temporarily collect and temporarily store a large amount of data, the problem of increasing data storage units should be properly considered when configuring the measurement circuit system (4), and the capacity is preferably 20000 tree height data.
2. A buzzer (5) is additionally arranged in the height indicator and is electrically connected with the measuring circuit system (4) at the same time.
3. The program is written according to the logic block diagram shown in fig. 3 and implements the following functions:
(1) aiming at a target, pressing a measuring button, and keeping the measurer in an aiming state for a period of time t in situ;
(2) in time t, the measuring circuit continuously and automatically acquires n instantaneous readings, the interval time is t/n, and the acquired n instantaneous readings are automatically stored as a measured value array;
(3) calculating the mode of the measurement value array;
(4) taking the obtained mode as an ideal measurement value;
(5) and respectively and completely acquiring ideal measured values of the tip angle alpha, the trunk distance L and the base angle beta according to the steps, starting a subsequent calculation program, calculating the tree height according to a mathematical method of a formula h which is L (tan alpha + tan beta), and finishing the measurement process.
In the program design, the t value setting of the 'measurer keeps the aiming state for a period of time in situ' is related to the sensitivity and the precision of the used hardware, and under the condition of the prior art, the t value range can be set between 1 and 3 seconds.
In addition, the programming should make the buzzer (5) sound synchronously within t time after the measurer presses the key, so as to remind the height indicator to automatically measure and count within the time, and the measurer must keep the corresponding time of the measuring state carefully.
The application method of the tree electronic altimeter manufactured by the invention comprises the following steps:
1. selecting a survey station location (see fig. 5):
firstly, selecting a measuring point O beside a measured tree (according to the traditional tree measurement requirement, in order to reduce the measurement error, the distance from the point O to the trunk should be as close to the tree height as possible during point selection);
2. measurement of tree height (see fig. 5 and 3):
(1) the treetop is aimed at by the handheld height gauge, the screen is used for main breathing, the tip angle key (1) is pressed by a forefinger and kept for a certain time, and an ideal tip angle alpha can be obtained when the buzzing sound is finished;
(2) aiming at a relatively flat and smooth place on a trunk, carrying out screen main breathing, pressing a trunk distance key (2) by using a middle finger and keeping for a certain time, and obtaining an ideal trunk distance L when the buzzing sound is finished (because a height measuring instrument can automatically flatten, the aiming position of the trunk is not required, but the smooth surface position of the trunk near an apparent flat line is aimed as much as possible, so that the measurement precision is improved favorably);
(3) aiming at the base of the trunk, shielding the main breath, pressing by a ring finger and keeping for a certain time, and obtaining an ideal base angle beta when the buzzer is finished;
(4) when the tree height key (see fig. 2) is pressed, the tree height value h is displayed on the screen together with the tip angle α, the trunk length L, and the base angle β.
It is worth emphasizing that: the method can eliminate or greatly reduce the jitter error, improve the measurement precision of the tree electronic height measuring instrument, and ensure stable and reliable results by applying the mode principle, thereby having important significance for improving the field investigation speed and ensuring the accuracy of forestry resource data.
