Abstract: Pipeline networks are crucial components of modern infrastructure, and ensuring their reliable operation is essential for sustainable development. The percussion-based methods are considered promising for detecting pipeline faults due to their avoidance of constant-contact sensors and ease of implementation. However, the majority of existing percussion-based methods suffer from limitations such as the requirement for manual feature extraction, as well as subpar noise resilience and adaptability. This paper introduces a one-dimensional convolutional bidirectional long short-term memory network with wide first-layer kernels for the classification of percussion-induced acoustic signals, thus achieving automatic identification of pipeline leakage and water deposit conditions. This approach directly extracts features from audio signals using wide first-layer convolutional kernels, eliminating the need for manual feature extraction. Additionally, it employs bidirectional long short-term memory to effectively capture long-term signal dependencies from both past and future contexts. To validate the effectiveness of the method, two case studies were conducted on three groups of pipes. The results show that the proposed method demonstrates superior noise resistance and adaptability compared to other methods, and it also exhibits strong applicability to other percussion signal datasets. Additionally, the impact of different first convolutional kernel sizes on the noise resistance and adaptive performance of the model was investigated, which provides robust guidance for the effective processing of percussion-induced acoustic signals.
