Exemplarily, as shown in
Specifically, the signal source 101 is a component that provides a step excitation waveform current to the signal transmission module 102, the transmission frequency of the step excitation waveform current provided by the signal transmission module 102 can be f, and f can be determined according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. Further, the step excitation waveform current can be a unipolar rectangular wave current or a bipolar rectangular wave current; the signal transmission module 102 can be a component that is induced and generates a magnetic field signal, which can be a transmission coil, etc.; the signal output module 103 is a component that performs magnetoelectric induction and outputs a voltage signal, for example, it can be a magnetoelectric sensitive component. In a possible implementation, the signal output module 103 comprises a ferromagnetic layer and a piezoelectric layer. When a high-amplitude AC magnetic field is applied to the ferromagnetic layer, the ferromagnetic layer undergoes nonlinear magnetostriction. The magnetoelectric sensitive component composed of the ferromagnetic layer and the piezoelectric layer can complete the magnetic-mechanical-electrical physical field conversion, and then the voltage signal output by the signal output module 103 produces a nonlinear harmonic distortion response, such as frequency doubling effect and high-order harmonics. Under the excitation of the high-amplitude transient magnetic field, the signal output module 103 undergoes damped motion, and the voltage oscillation can be maintained for more than a few hundred microseconds. In addition, the magnetoelectric sensitive component composed of the ferromagnetic layer and the piezoelectric layer can also have a frequency bandwidth of hundreds of kHz, and can also receive AC signals under the nonlinear effect. Under the excitation of the second magnetic field, it outputs a voltage signal through magnetic-mechanical-electrical physical field conversion. Further, the target can be an unexploded bomb, etc.
Further, as shown in
Herein, after the transmission current provided by the signal source 101 is turned off, the first magnetic field undergoes a step change, and the signal output module 103 generates a voltage signal, the voltage signal comprises an oscillating voltage signal generated when the voltage signal damped vibrates at a natural frequency fr driven by a step change of the first magnetic field, and an attenuated voltage signal generated after the oscillation ends. In the geomagnetic anomaly detection mode, the oscillating voltage signal in the voltage signal can be maintained for hundreds of microseconds, and the oscillating voltage signal will be modulated by the geomagnetic anomaly. After receiving the voltage signal, the processing module 105 uses a phase-locked quadrature method to demodulate the oscillating voltage signal in the voltage signal to obtain the voltage amplitude and phase of the resonance point. The first signal feature comprises the voltage amplitude and phase, etc., the geomagnetic anomaly field caused by the target is calculated, the target is identified, and the detection work in the geomagnetic anomaly detection mode is completed. More specifically, the voltage amplitude feature indicates the geomagnetic anomaly information, and the geomagnetic anomaly information refers to the change information of the geomagnetic field caused by the existence of the target. After obtaining the voltage amplitude feature, when the voltage amplitude feature exceeds a first preset range, determining that there is a target in the current detection area, wherein the first preset range is the range of the normal voltage amplitude feature when there is no target object. The first preset range can be determined according to the actual situation, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. For the voltage waveform and data processing process of the oscillating voltage signal, as shown in
In the electromagnetic induction time domain detection mode, the target generates an attenuated second magnetic field under the eddy current effect, and the attenuation time is tens of seconds. The signal output module 103 starts to attenuate after the oscillation ends, that is, the attenuation curve of the attenuated voltage signal is changed under the influence of the second magnetic field, and the attenuation curve of the voltage contains the information of the transient second magnetic field. After the processing module 105 receives the voltage signal, as shown in
In a possible implementation, the processing module 105 is further used to acquire a signal waveform output by the signal output module 103, process the signal waveform to obtain a second signal feature, and detect the target based on the second signal feature, wherein the signal waveform is used for detection in the electromagnetic induction frequency domain detection mode, and the signal waveform comprises voltage signals of multiple transmission cycles. As shown in
Furthermore, in a complete cycle, the signal transmission module 102 generates a first magnetic field after the current is passed through it, and the target generates a second magnetic field in the first magnetic field due to the eddy current effect. After the signal source 101 is turned off, the signal output module 103 can output a voltage signal. By analyzing the signal waveform formed by the voltage signal of multiple transmission cycles, the detection of the electromagnetic induction frequency domain detection mode can be realized. Herein, after the signal transmission module 102 is supplied with a current with a transmission frequency f, the target generates a second magnetic field with the same frequency as the current emitted by the signal source 101 under the effect of the first magnetic field. After the signal source 101 is turned off, the signal output module 103 outputs a voltage signal, and the signal waveform contains a signal of the second magnetic field with the same frequency as the step excitation waveform current. After receiving the signal waveform, the processing module 105 demodulates the signal waveform using a phase-locked quadrature demodulation method to obtain the real component and imaginary component of a harmonic wave with a frequency f (smaller than the oscillation frequency). When the real part of the real component exceeds a third preset range, or the imaginary part of the imaginary component exceeds a fourth preset range, determining that the target object exists, and the target is identified to exist in the currently detected area, wherein the third preset range is a normal value range of the real part when the target does not exist, the fourth preset range is a normal value range of the imaginary part when the target does not exist, the third preset range and the fourth preset range can be determined based on actual conditions, the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. The processing process of the signal waveform including four transmission cycles shown in
The principle of the target detection device is explained below. A step excitation waveform current is supplied to the signal transmission module to generate a first magnetic field Bp, which causes the signal output module composed of the ferromagnetic layer and the piezoelectric layer to produce nonlinear stress. After the step excitation waveform current is turned off, the first magnetic field undergoes a step change, resulting in a step change in stress. Under the excitation of the step change in stress, the signal output module undergoes second-order damped vibration, and the vibration differential equation is:
Wherein, c1 and c2 are the damping coefficients of the piezoelectric layer and the ferromagnetic layer, respectively. A, l,
Where n1 and n2 are the volume proportions of the materials of the piezoelectric layer and the ferromagnetic layer, respectively, z is the displacement of the cross section along the length direction of the piezoelectric layer and the ferromagnetic layer, s33m is the compliance coefficient under a constant magnetic field, s11p is the compliance coefficient under a constant electric field, ζ is the system damping ratio, φ is the phase angle, and ω is the natural frequency fr of the signal output module. μ is the vacuum permeability, λ(T3m, μBe) is the nonlinear magnetostriction coefficient, which is a function of stress T3m and magnetic induction intensity Be. According to the relationship between electric field and strain in the linear equation of piezoelectric materials, the expression of the output voltage V(t) changing with time can be obtained from the longitudinal differential equation:
From the above equations, it can be seen that the voltage oscillates at the natural frequency of the signal output module and attenuates exponentially. After the oscillation ends, the charge on the surface of the piezoelectric layer are quickly neutralized and the voltage is gradually attenuated. Due to the nonlinear magnetoelectric effect, when the ambient magnetic field changes, the magnetic field signal mixes with the oscillating voltage signal, the output voltage is modulated, and the amplitude is changed.
Herein, in the geomagnetic anomaly detection mode, the target is magnetized under the action of the geomagnetic field, a magnetic anomaly field is generated. Due to the nonlinear magnetoelectric effect of the signal output module, the oscillating voltage signal is modulated by the magnetic anomaly field, and the amplitude changes. By demodulating the voltage component at the resonant frequency point, the geomagnetic anomaly information can be obtained to determine whether there is an unexploded bomb in the current detection area. In the electromagnetic induction time domain detection mode, the target generates a decaying second magnetic field due to the eddy current effect under the action of the first magnetic field. The second magnetic field will hinder the attenuation of the voltage after the vibration of the signal output module ends. By extracting the information of the second magnetic field after processing the late voltage attenuated signal, it is determined whether there is an unexploded bomb in the current detection area. In the electromagnetic induction frequency domain detection mode, the frequency bandwidth of the signal output module can reach several hundred kHz. Under the excitation of the first magnetic field with a frequency f, an output voltage with the same frequency will be generated. By demodulating the voltage harmonic wave with frequency f, the real and imaginary components containing the secondary field signal are obtained to determine whether there is an unexploded bomb in the current detection area.
The following is an example of the signal waveform diagram in the geomagnetic anomaly detection mode and the electromagnetic induction time domain detection mode in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
It can be seen from the technical solution provided by the above embodiment of the present application that in one transmission cycle, during which the signal source supplies the step excitation waveform current to the signal transmission module and turns off the step excitation waveform current, the voltage signal output by the signal output module comprises an oscillating voltage signal when the voltage signal damped vibrates at a natural frequency driven by a step change of the first magnetic field, and an attenuated voltage signal affected by the second magnetic field after vibration ends. The oscillating voltage signal is used for detection in the geomagnetic anomaly detection mode, and the attenuated voltage signal is used for detection in the electromagnetic induction time domain detection mode. After the processing module processes the voltage signal output by the signal output module, a first signal feature is obtained, thereby detecting the target based on the first signal feature. In this way, the same set of target detection devices can complete the detection of target in multiple modes with a single supply of step excitation waveform current. Compared with using multiple sets of detection devices with separate functions, it effectively saves detection time and achieves a higher detection efficiency. In addition, the same set of target detection devices can complete the detection of target in multiple modes. There is no need to run multiple sets of detection devices with independent functions, which avoids the problem of mutual interference between detection devices and improves the detection accuracy of target.
In a possible implementation, in order to improve the detection capability for the target, the target detection device further comprises: a signal amplification module, which is connected to the signal output module and is used to amplify the voltage signal, wherein the signal amplification module can be a signal amplifier, etc.
In a possible implementation, in order to improve the detection capability and recognition capability for the target and reduce the false alarm rate, the signal output module 103 can be arranged in an array, and the orthogonal three components of the geomagnetic anomaly and the second magnetic field can be measured simultaneously, thereby improving the detection capability and recognition capability for the target.

Herein, when the signal transmitting module 102 is a transmission coil, the transmission coil is wound in the circular groove, and the cover plate 1042 covers the upper surface of the circular groove, so that the transmission coil can be placed in a closed space to avoid damage. The guide rail part 10411 is a cross-shaped groove slide rail structure, the clamping end of the clamping slider 1043 is an “M”-shaped structure, and the other end is a raised rectangular slider. The clamping slider 1043 can be embedded in the cross-shaped groove slide rail of the guide rail part 10411, and can slide freely on the slide rail, and is connected to the guide rail part 10411 by the cooperation of bolts and nuts. The signal output module 103 is placed in the cross-shaped groove of the guide rail part 10411, and the signal output module 103 is fixed to the clamping slider 1043, and the signal output module 103 can slide in the cross-shaped groove of the guide rail part.
