Abstract

In this paper, we propose a pipe leak detection system through data collection using low-power wireless acoustic sensor modules and data analysis using deep auto-encoder. Based on the Fourier transform, we propose a low-power wireless acoustic sensor module that reduces data traffic by reducing the amount of acoustic sensor data to about 1/800, and we design the system that is robust to noise generated in the audible frequency band using only 20kHz~100kHz frequency signals. In addition, the proposed system is designed using a deep auto-encoder to accurately detect pipe leaks even with a reduced amount of data. Numerical experiments show that the proposed pipe leak detection system has a high accuracy of 99.94% and Type-II error of 0% even in the environment where high frequency band noise is mixed.

본 논문에서는 저전력 무선 음향센서 모듈을 통한 데이터 수집과 딥 오토인코더를 이용한 데이터 분석을 통해 배관의 누출을 탐지하는 시스템을 제안한다. 데이터 통신량을 줄이기 위해서 푸리에 변환을 통해 음향센서 데이터 양을 약 1/800로 감소시키는 저전력 무선 음향센서 모듈을 구성하였고, 20kHz~100kHz 주파수 신호를 이용하여 가청 주파수 대역에서 발생하는 노이즈에 강인한 누출 탐지 시스템을 설계하였다. 또한, 데이터 양의 감소에도 배관 누출을 정확하게 탐지하도록 딥 오토인코더를 이용한 데이터 분석 기법을 설계하였다. 수치적인 실험을 통해, 본 논문에서 제안한 누출 탐지 시스템이 고주파 대역대의 노이즈가 섞인 환경에서도 99.94%의 높은 정확도와 Type-II error 0%의 높은 성능을 보이는 것을 검증하였다.
