Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of dangerous goods detection, in particular to a dangerous goods detector and a dangerous goods detection method.

Background

The hidden dangerous goods carried by the human body are detected, so that terrorist criminal activities can be prevented to a certain extent. Because millimeter wave and terahertz wave can penetrate most clothes, dangerous goods hidden in clothes of a human body, such as metal explosives, metal guns, metal cutters and the like, can be detected by utilizing the penetrating characteristics of the millimeter wave and the terahertz wave. Researchers have proposed a millimeter wave hidden dangerous article detector. In the detector, after the linearly polarized electromagnetic wave transmitted by the transmitting channel reaches the target to be detected (human body), the reflected linearly polarized electromagnetic wave (echo) is received by two receiving channels, and then processed by the control and display device to obtain the detection result. When the object to be detected carries dangerous goods, the echo energy distribution of the object and the echo energy distribution of the object to be detected which does not carry the dangerous goods are different, and the detection of the hidden dangerous goods of the human body can be realized by utilizing the difference. In the detector, two cross linear polarization modes of vertical polarization and horizontal polarization are used, and the linear polarization mode has the advantages of low antenna cost and easiness in integration.

However, for a linearly polarized antenna, when the polarization direction of the receiving antenna coincides with the linear polarization direction, the induced signal is maximum (electromagnetic waves project in the polarization direction to the maximum); the induced signal is smaller as the polarization direction of the receiving antenna deviates more and more from the linear polarization direction; when the polarization direction of the receiving antenna is orthogonal to the linear polarization direction, the induced signal is zero, i.e., the linear polarization mode has a high requirement on the direction of the antenna. Under actual conditions, when electromagnetic waves encounter reflection and refraction in the process of propagation, polarization directions can be deflected, so that received strength is weakened, and detection of target objects is adversely affected. Therefore, the linear polarization antenna has poor anti-interference capability in a complex environment, and is difficult to adapt to long-distance detection of dangerous goods.

Detailed Description

To facilitate an understanding of the invention, the invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete.

It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being "secured to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements may also be present. When an element is referred to as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or intervening elements may also be present. As used herein, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "circumferential," and the like are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings for ease of description and simplicity of description, and do not indicate or imply that the referenced device or element must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and are therefore not to be considered limiting of the present invention.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used herein, the term "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

In a traditional linear polarization hazardous article detector, when the polarization direction of a receiving antenna is consistent with the linear polarization direction, the induced signal is maximum (the projection of electromagnetic waves on the polarization direction is maximum); the induced signal is smaller as the polarization direction of the receiving antenna deviates more and more from the linear polarization direction; when the polarization direction of the receiving antenna is orthogonal to the linear polarization direction, the induced signal is zero, i.e., the linear polarization mode has a high requirement on the direction of the antenna. Under actual conditions, when electromagnetic waves encounter reflection and refraction in the process of propagation, polarization directions can be deflected, so that received strength is weakened, and detection of target objects is adversely affected. Therefore, the linear polarization antenna has poor anti-interference capability in a complex environment, and is difficult to adapt to long-distance detection of dangerous goods.

In view of the above-mentioned defects, the present application provides a hazardous article detector that can significantly enhance the anti-interference capability of electromagnetic waves. Referring to fig. 1, the hazardous article detector includes a control module 1 and a transceiver module 2 connected to the control module 1.

Specifically, the transceiver module 2 includes a signal source 201 and a circular polarization transmitting channel connected to the signal source 201, and the circular polarization transmitting channel may be configured to transmit circular polarization electromagnetic waves to the target object according to a local oscillator signal output by the signal source 201; and the two receiving channels are used for receiving the echo of the target object, the polarization direction of one receiving channel in the two receiving channels is the same as that of the circularly polarized transmitting channel, and the polarization direction of the other receiving channel is opposite to that of the circularly polarized transmitting channel. The signal source 201 may be a linear frequency modulated source.

The control module 1 comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected with the signal source 201 and is used for controlling the signal source 201 to output a local oscillation signal; the second end is connected with the two receiving channels and used for determining the depolarization degree of the echo of the target object and outputting a detection result according to the depolarization degree. The detection result may include both the result that the target item is a hazardous item and the result that the target item is not a hazardous item.

The circularly polarized electromagnetic waves transmitted by the transmitting channel can be left-handed circularly polarized electromagnetic waves or right-handed circularly polarized electromagnetic waves, but regardless of the polarization direction of the transmitted circularly polarized electromagnetic waves, one of the two receiving channels is a left-handed circularly polarized receiving channel, and the other one is a right-handed circularly polarized receiving channel. Further, if the transmitted circularly polarized electromagnetic wave is a right-hand circularly polarized electromagnetic wave, the right-hand circularly polarized receiving channel of the two receiving channels belongs to a same-polarization receiving channel, and the left-hand circularly polarized receiving channel belongs to a cross-polarization receiving channel. In the co-polarized receive channel and the cross-polarized receive channel, there is a difference in the normal and abnormal echo distributions, but the difference in the cross-polarized receive channel is more pronounced, especially for metals.

Specifically, normally, the cross-polarization component in the echo of the target object is lower than the homo-polarization component, but if the target is a metal, particularly a metal target with a complicated surface structure, the depolarization effect is enhanced and the echo cross-polarization component is increased. The depolarization phenomenon is not obvious for the objects normally carried by normal people, but is very obvious for the objects which are made of metal and have irregular surfaces, such as guns, simple explosives and the like. Corresponding to circularly polarized electromagnetic waves, in a spherical coordinate system, the circularly polarized electromagnetic waves transmitted by the assumed circularly polarized transmission channel can be represented as E_w＝(a_θ+ja_φ) E (r, θ, φ), wherein a_θAnd a_φIs a unit vector of spherical coordinates, and the polarization characteristic of the right-handed electromagnetic wave can be expressed by the unit vectorAfter the reflection of the target, the right-handed electromagnetic wave is converted into the left-handed electromagnetic wave, and the left-handed electromagnetic wave is expressed by unit vectorWhen the receiving channel uses a right-hand circularly polarized receiving antenna, the unit vector is expressed asThis yields a polarization loss factor of LF ═ ρ_w2*ρ_r1. When the left-handed circularly polarized receiving antenna is used as the receiving channel, the loss factor LF of 0 can be obtained, namely, the two paths of co-polarized echo signals are stronger, and the cross-polarized echo signals are weaker. In practical application, because a perfect circularly polarized antenna is difficult to realize, the polarization loss factor under the same polarization condition is less than 1, and the cross polarization loss factor is more than 0. Based on the characteristics, the depolarization degree of the scattered field can be quantitatively analyzed by measuring the homopolarization component and the cross-polarization component of the target echo, and whether the object to be detected carries dangerous goods such as firearms or the like is judged accordingly.

In one embodiment, the difference in depolarization levels between normal (no threat objects) and abnormal (threat objects) conditions may be analyzed by detecting a large number of known conditions, and a depolarization threshold may be determined for determining normal and abnormal conditions. According to the threshold value, whether other unknown target objects are dangerous objects or not can be judged.

According to the dangerous goods detector, circularly polarized electromagnetic waves are used for detecting the depolarization degree of echoes of a target object, so that even if the polarization direction of the electromagnetic waves is deflected due to multiple times of reflection and refraction in a complex environment, the circularly polarized electromagnetic waves cannot be influenced in receiving. Therefore, the detection of the dangerous goods by adopting the circularly polarized electromagnetic wave can reduce the sensitivity of the detector to the orientation of the receiving antenna, enhance the anti-interference capability of the detector and improve the accuracy of the detection of the long-distance dangerous goods.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the control module 1 may include: the display control component 101 is used for generating a detection instruction and displaying a detection result; and the signal acquisition processing assembly 102 is connected with the display control assembly 101 and is provided with the first end and the second end, and the signal acquisition processing assembly 102 is used for outputting a trigger signal according to the detection instruction, outputting the trigger signal to the signal source 201 through the first end, receiving signals output by the two receiving channels through the second end to determine the depolarization degree of the echo of the target object, and outputting a detection result according to the depolarization degree.

In one embodiment, the transceiver module 2 comprises at least two circularly polarized transmission channels with opposite polarization directions, and the at least two circularly polarized transmission channels transmit circularly polarized electromagnetic waves in turn. It should be noted that, the rotation here means that only one circularly polarized transmission channel transmits circularly polarized electromagnetic waves outwards at the same time, and the detector only completes one detection operation after all circularly polarized transmission channels have transmitted independently. By the method, the energy distribution of a plurality of different co-polarization echo signals and cross-polarization echo signals can be obtained, so that the difference comparison between a normal situation and an abnormal situation is increased, and the accurate judgment rate higher than that of 2 channel data is obtained.

Further, there are two circularly polarized transmit channels, and the signal source 201 is connected to the two circularly polarized transmit channels through the single-pole double-throw switch 202. Specifically, the single-pole double-throw switch 202 selectively outputs the received local oscillation signal to one circular polarization transmitting channel, so that only one circular polarization transmitting channel transmits the electromagnetic wave at the same time. Through the mode, the two-sending and two-receiving framework can be realized, so that 4 different echo signal data are obtained, and the balance between the improvement of the accurate judgment rate of dangerous goods and the guarantee of the detection efficiency is facilitated.

Further, referring to fig. 1, the two circular polarization transmitting channels are a first circular polarization transmitting channel and a second circular polarization transmitting channel, respectively. Wherein the first circularly polarized channel may include: the first frequency multiplier 203 is connected with the signal source 201 and is used for multiplying the frequency of the local oscillator signal output by the signal source 201 and outputting a corresponding multiplied frequency signal; the first amplifier 204 is connected with the first frequency multiplier 203 and is used for amplifying the local oscillator signals after frequency multiplication and outputting corresponding amplified signals; and a first transmitting antenna 205 connected to the first amplifier 204 for receiving the amplified signal and transmitting a corresponding circularly polarized electromagnetic wave. The second circular polarization transmitting channel is sequentially and correspondingly provided with a second frequency multiplier 206, a second amplifier 207 and a second transmitting antenna 208, and the functions of the above components are similar to those in the first circular polarization transmitting channel, so that the details are omitted. The first transmitting antenna 205 may be a left-handed circular polarized antenna or a right-handed circular polarized antenna, and the polarization direction of the second transmitting antenna 208 is opposite to the polarization direction of the first transmitting antenna 205.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the two receiving channels may be a first receiving channel and a second receiving channel, respectively, wherein each receiving channel includes a circularly polarized receiving antenna for receiving an echo of a target object and outputting a corresponding radio frequency signal. Wherein the polarization direction of the circularly polarized receiving antenna (i.e., the first receiving antenna 210) in the first receiving channel is the same as the polarization direction of the circularly polarized transmitting antenna, and the polarization direction of the circularly polarized receiving antenna (i.e., the second receiving antenna 211) in the second receiving channel is opposite to the polarization direction of the circularly polarized transmitting antenna.

Further, taking the first receiving channel as an example, the first receiving channel further includes: the first mixer 209 comprises a first input end, a second input end and an output end, wherein the first input end is connected with the signal source 201 and is used for receiving the local oscillator signal output by the signal source 201, the second input end is connected with the first receiving antenna 210 and is used for receiving the radio frequency signal output by the first receiving antenna 210, and the first mixer 209 is used for mixing the local oscillator signal and the radio frequency signal and outputting a corresponding intermediate frequency signal; and an intermediate frequency filtering and amplifying component 213, one end of which is connected to the output end of the first mixer 209, and the other end of which is connected to the control module 1, wherein the intermediate frequency filtering and amplifying component 213 is configured to filter and amplify the intermediate frequency signal, and output the filtered and amplified intermediate frequency signal to the control module 1. The second receiving channel correspondingly includes a second receiving antenna 211 and a second mixer 212, and the connection relationship of the second receiving antenna 211 and the second mixer in the second receiving channel is similar to that in the first receiving channel, and is not repeated here. In addition, the receiving channel may also employ a detector to receive the electromagnetic waves.

In an embodiment, the first transmitting antenna 205, the second transmitting antenna 208, the first receiving antenna 210, and the second receiving antenna 211 may be at least one of a microstrip antenna, a quadrifilar helix antenna, a waveguide slot antenna, and a conical horn antenna.

In one embodiment, the electromagnetic wave signal frequency band used may be microwave, millimeter wave and terahertz wave. Taking millimeter wave band as an example, in the transceiver module 1, the frequency of the signal sent by the signal source 201 is 11.5GHz to 12GHz, and when the frequency doubling time of the frequency multiplier is 8, the frequency of the electromagnetic wave transmitted by the circularly polarized transmitting channel is 92GHz to 96 GHz. However, the electromagnetic waves are invisible, so that the device can be used together with a video imaging device during actual detection, so that a detection person can conveniently observe the current detection area in real time and perform subsequent operation.

Next, referring to fig. 2, the detection process of the above-mentioned hazardous article detector will be specifically described.

As shown in fig. 2, after the target object is ready, the display and control component 101 generates a detection instruction, the signal acquisition and processing component 102 receives the detection instruction and then outputs a trigger signal to the signal source 201, and the signal source 201 receives the trigger signal and then outputs three local oscillation signals, wherein one local oscillation signal passes through the single-pole double-throw switch 202, and the other two local oscillation signals are output to the first mixer 209 and the second mixer 212. The single pole double throw switch 202 selectively outputs the received local oscillator signal to the first frequency multiplier 203 or the second frequency multiplier 206. At the same time, only one of the first frequency multiplier 203 or the second frequency multiplier 206 outputs the multiplied signal. After the frequency-doubled signal output by the first frequency-doubled amplifier 203 is input to the first amplifier 204, the first amplifier 204 amplifies the signal and inputs the amplified signal to the first transmitting antenna 205, and the first transmitting antenna 205 radiates the signal to a free space. When the second frequency multiplier 206 outputs, the process is similar to the first frequency multiplier 203. When circularly polarized electromagnetic waves transmitted by the first transmitting antenna 205 are incident on a target object, a part of the electromagnetic waves are reflected, corresponding radio frequency signals are received and output by the first receiving antenna 210 and the second receiving antenna 211, the radio frequency signals are respectively transmitted to the first mixer 209 and the second mixer 212, the first mixer 209 and the second mixer 212 output the mixed intermediate frequency signals to the intermediate frequency filtering and amplifying component 213 for filtering and amplifying, the filtered and amplified signals are output to the signal acquisition and processing component 102 for processing and outputting corresponding detection results, and finally the detection results are displayed by the display and control component 101.

The application also provides a dangerous goods detection method. Referring to fig. 3, the detecting method includes:

and S200, transmitting the circularly polarized electromagnetic wave to the target object.

S300, receiving echoes of the target object simultaneously by adopting a same-polarization receiving channel and a cross-polarization receiving channel.

The dangerous goods detection method adopts circularly polarized electromagnetic waves to detect the depolarization degree of the echo of the target goods, judges whether the depolarization degree exceeds a preset depolarization degree threshold value or not, and determines that the target goods are dangerous goods if the depolarization degree exceeds the preset depolarization degree threshold value. The dangerous goods detection method adopts circularly polarized electromagnetic waves for detection, and is beneficial to reducing the sensitivity to the orientation of the receiving antenna during detection, thereby enhancing the anti-interference capability of detection and improving the accuracy of remote dangerous goods detection.

In one embodiment, step S200 includes: circularly polarized electromagnetic waves with different polarization directions are transmitted to the target object in turn. By the method, the energy distribution of a plurality of different co-polarization echo signals and cross-polarization echo signals can be obtained, so that the difference comparison between a normal situation and an abnormal situation is increased, and the accurate judgment rate higher than that of 2 channel data is obtained.

In an embodiment, before step S200, the method may include:

s120, acquiring depolarization degrees of echoes of a plurality of groups of known dangerous goods;

and S130, determining a preset depolarization degree threshold according to the depolarization degrees of the echoes of the multiple groups of known normal products and the multiple groups of known dangerous products.

Specifically, the difference in the degree of depolarization in normal (no hazardous material) and abnormal (hazardous material) situations can be analyzed by detecting a large number of known situations, and the threshold for the degree of depolarization for determining normal and abnormal situations can be determined. According to the threshold value, whether other unknown target objects are dangerous objects or not can be judged. In addition, a machine learning algorithm can be adopted to train a machine learning model from the tested data, and the machine learning model carries out self-improvement of the detection method.

The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
