Icing Detection Method of Transmission Line Based on Machine Vision

The conventional icing detection method is mainly based on the manual detection of icing status. The texture correlation characteristics of icing are variables, which lead to large errors in the icing edge detection and affect the subsequent maintenance of transmission lines. Therefore, the transmission line icing detection method based on machine vision is designed in this paper. The method comprises the following steps of extracting the icing texture feature of the transmission line, namely extracting the correlation feature of an icing image, identifying an icing area by using machine vision technology, carrying out edge detection on the transmission line and finally obtaining the icing thickness of the transmission line to realize the accurate detection on the icing of the power transmission line. The comparative experimental results show that the detection error of this method is small, the detection accuracy is high, and it can be applied to real life.
