A Semiconductor Bridge Electrical Explosive Device Online Firing Quality Identification Algorithm

When qualified explosive devices fire the explosive agent unsuccessfully, on-site testers cannot diagnose fast and accurately whether it is the firing quality problem of the electrical explosive devices or explosive agent by using traditional test methods. And, if the explosive agent is fired unsuccessfully, generally, the only way is to test the explosive device by on-site testers themselves. In order to protect the on-site testers' safety, this paper proposes an electrical explosive device firing quality identification algorithm based on HHT (Hilbert-Huang transform) of the explosive time series. Obtaining an explosive current time series during the firing process of electrical explosive devices by the explosive equipment, the IMFs (intrinsic mode functions) and a residual function of the explosive current time series are obtained by EMD (empirical mode decomposition), the feature vector, which is the energy characteristic values of the IMFs and residual function by Hilbert transformation, is the input of SVM (support vector machine), and the fired failure explosive device is identified as an excellent performance product or performance failure product by the trained SVM. Finally, semiconductor explosive devices are tested to verify the proposed algorithm, and the results show that the EMD-SVM algorithm can identify effectively the firing quality of firing explosive devices.
