- Transportation Science
Background:
- Weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems are crucial for real-time vehicle weight monitoring.
- Existing WIM systems often suffer from low accuracy, necessitating improved modeling techniques.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop a novel WIM model that enhances measurement accuracy.
- To address the limitations of current WIM systems through advanced algorithms.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of WIM system structure and principles.
- Wavelet transform for WIM signal denoising and reconstruction.
- Development of a beetle swarm optimization (BSO) algorithm-optimized error backpropagation (BP) neural network model.
Main Results:
- The BSO-BP WIM model demonstrated fast convergence speed and high accuracy.
- Achieved a relative error of 1.41% for maximum gross weight.
