- Abstract
As weather radar stations require headroom environment to operate, they were mostly built on highlands which are usually unattended. The mains supply is relatively poor, and the risk of radar stoppages due to power outage is therefore ever-present. As such, the radar construction program is used to build a complementary security video monitoring system. By collecting monitoring images of the regulated power supply in real-time from power supply auto transfer systems in distribution rooms and radar transceiver rooms, using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient to analyse pixel variation trends, and supplementing statistical analysis of pixel characteristics difference to eliminate misjudgments resulting from low image contrast in special scenarios, a software can be developed through C#. It has the function of automaticaHy monitoring mains supply and alerting staff on duty to handle the power outage in a timely manner via text meesage so that any potential risk is neutralised before it can cause damage. This monitoring and auto-alerting approach is generaHy applicable to una tended rooms with large amounts of electronical equipment.
