Description

Method for reducing lightning positioning ground flash error
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of weather disaster prevention and reduction, and particularly relates to a method for reducing lightning positioning ground flash errors.
Background
Lightning disasters are a very serious meteorological disaster, and cause a great deal of casualties and economic losses of up to hundreds of millions of yuan each year. With the development of society, departments such as meteorological, electric power, civil aviation, agriculture and forestry all put forward higher requirements on lightning location. Electromagnetic radiation generated by long-channel ground flash back and cloud flash processes is mainly concentrated in Low Frequency (LF) and Very Low Frequency (VLF), so lightning electromagnetic waves in this frequency band are widely used in lightning location.
Along with the development of measurement technology and the application of a high-speed computer, high-performance lightning detection networks are arranged all over the world, and the occurrence position and time of lightning stroke can be calculated by utilizing the signal arrival time and arrival direction information provided by a plurality of sensors, and meanwhile, the intensity of the lightning stroke can be estimated and the polarity of the lightning stroke can be judged.
The multi-station lightning positioning technology commonly adopts a time difference positioning method (TDOA, time Difference Of Arrival), namely, the time difference of reaching different stations based on lightning electromagnetic signals is utilized to position by utilizing the principle of hyperbola intersection. In the TDOA positioning technology, the distance between measuring stations is fixed, a hyperbola can be constructed by utilizing the time difference of lightning signals reaching two measuring stations, and a plurality of hyperbolas constructed by a plurality of measuring stations are intersected at a certain point, namely the position of the lightning radiation origin. The three-station time difference can be calculated by a hyperbola method to obtain the two-dimensional longitude and latitude coordinates of the radiation source point, the four-station time difference can be calculated by a hyperbola method to obtain the three-dimensional space coordinates of the radiation source point, for the five-station time difference data, the three-dimensional space coordinates and the occurrence time of the radiation source point are calculated by solving a nonlinear equation set, and more synchronous time information is used for optimizing the positioning result.
The accuracy of TDOA location is directly related to the error of the time measurement, and the effects of terrain or environmental disturbances may lead to errors on the order of meters to kilometers. The error in time measurement is mainly from 4 sources: (1) a terrain-induced increase in the arrival time of the electromagnetic signal; (2) The propagation speed of the electromagnetic signal along the consumable surface is less than the speed of light in vacuum; (3) GPS time service precision; (4) arrival times calculated by different methods. Wherein the terrain-induced time measurement error is related to the degree of relief of the terrain, and the statistics indicate that the terrain-induced time measurement error is about 1 mus for every 100km for a long wave signal propagating along the earth surface. The time error caused by the topography has a larger influence on the positioning result, which also leads to that the TDOA positioning result often has larger deviation in mountain areas with rough topography, particularly when the topography difference of lightning stroke points from each measuring station is larger, the electromagnetic propagation from the real lightning stroke points to each measuring station is different in propagation delay caused by the large topography difference, the arrival time is increased due to the error caused by the topography, and the positioning error is further increased. Therefore, how to overcome the defects of the prior art is a problem to be solved in the technical field of disaster prevention and reduction of meteorological disasters at present.

step 3: analyzing the difference value of the arrival time of the ground wave from the lightning stroke point to the measuring station participating in positioning under the conditions of real topography and flat topography by adopting a clustering method, and dividing the measuring station participating in positioning into one cluster or a plurality of clusters and measuring stations not in any cluster according to the analysis result;

Further, preferably, in step 2, the actual topography data is DEM data, and the data range covers the effective range that can be measured by the lightning location system.
Further, preferably, in step 3, the clustering method is a density-based clustering analysis method, and the method for calculating the neighborhood radius is as follows: the method comprises the steps of adopting the absolute value of the difference value between the lightning stroke points and the arrival time of ground waves of all measuring stations participating in positioning under the conditions of real topography and flat topography, summing the absolute values of the difference values, and then averaging, wherein the obtained average value is a neighborhood radius value; the minimum number of points is the number of stations that can be positioned. The density-based cluster analysis method adopted by the invention is an existing method, such as DBSCAN, and the invention does not redundant description of the method.
Further, preferably, in step 4, the specific method of aggregation analysis is as follows: taking the maximum value and the minimum value of the absolute values of the arrival time differences of the ground waves of the measuring stations in the cluster under the conditions of real topography and flat topography, wherein the average value after addition is a cluster center value, carrying out phase difference between the absolute values of the arrival time differences of the ground waves of different measuring stations in the cluster under the conditions of real topography and flat topography and the cluster center value, carrying out average on the absolute values of the difference values obtained by the phase difference, and increasing the aggregation degree as the average value is smaller.
Further, it is preferable that in step 4, if there are not less than 3 stations among the plurality of clusters, the cluster having the highest aggregation degree haslThe number of the two-dimensional space-saving type,lnot less than 2, but thislFrom there, the number of stations in the cluster is differentlThe clusters with a large number of measuring stations in the clusters are selected, and positioning is carried out again according to the step 1, so that the position coordinates of the lightning stroke points are determined; when this islAnd (3) if m clusters with more stations are found, and m is more than or equal to 2, randomly selecting one cluster from the m clusters, and positioning according to the step (1) again to determine the position coordinates of the lightning stroke point.
Further, in step 4, preferably, if there are not less than 3 stations in each of the plurality of clusters, and n is greater than or equal to 2 in the cluster with the highest aggregation degree, but the number of the stations in each of the n clusters is the same, one cluster is arbitrarily selected from the n clusters, and positioning is performed according to step 1 again, so as to determine the lightning stroke point position coordinates.
In the invention, the station which is not in any cluster is rejected each time, and the next positioning and clustering are not participated.
Firstly, primarily determining lightning stroke points according to a multi-station lightning positioning principle (more than 3 stations participating in positioning measuring stations) through a lightning positioning system; secondly, a time domain finite difference method (FDTD, finite Difference Time Domain) is adopted based on the actual topography and the flat topography, lightning stroke points are taken as lightning stroke occurrence positions, magnetic field change waveforms from the lightning stroke points to measuring stations of a lightning positioning system participating in positioning under the conditions of the flat topography and the actual topography are simulated, clustering analysis is carried out on the measuring stations according to the magnetic field change waveform differences of different measuring stations under the conditions of the flat topography and the actual topography, partial measuring stations are screened to be positioned again through the clustering analysis result, measuring stations with large errors caused by the topography variability of the arrival time of the ground wave are screened through the clustering analysis, the lightning stroke points are positioned again through the measuring stations with high data aggregation degree, and errors caused by the topography variability of the arrival time of the ground wave are reduced through screening of the measuring stations with large influence on the topography variability, so that the lightning positioning precision is improved. By the method, lightning positioning errors can be reduced, the lightning positioning accuracy is improved, and references and bases are provided for analysis of later accident events.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
when the lightning positioning calculation is carried out by utilizing all the observation data in the detection network, the observation quantity contains errors, the positioning result of the lightning target necessarily contains errors, and when the redundant observation quantity is increased, the precision of the lightning positioning result obtained by the weighted least square method is improved. However, the more observables that participate in the positioning calculation, the greater the probability of coarse errors (errors that are larger than the general measurement errors) occurring. Rough differences are caused by local electromagnetic noise, propagation errors of electric waves over complex terrain, and the like. If the rough differences are not removed, huge lightning positioning errors are caused. For the method of removing the coarse difference, a method of statistical verification and robust estimation is generally adopted. The statistical verification is widely applied, but has poor effect when a plurality of coarse differences exist in the measured data. The key of robust estimation is to construct an effective weight function, but finding a suitable general weight function is difficult to construct, and is inconvenient for engineering practical application. Particularly in the lightning detection field, no better method and means for removing the gross error exist at present. In the southwest mountain area of China, the influence on the propagation of lightning electromagnetic signals is large, the lightning positioning error is also large, the average lightning positioning error in the Yunnan area is about 1km, and the reduction of the lightning positioning error becomes the key for improving the system positioning precision.
