1. A sewer pipe inflow and infiltration diagnosis method based on a distributed fiber-optic temperature measurement system, wherein the distributed fiber-optic temperature measurement system comprises an optical time-domain reflectometer, a data interpretation module, a temperature sensing fiber-optic cable, and a distributed fiber-optic temperature measurement instrument, wherein
the method comprises the following steps:
S1: transmitting, by the optical time-domain reflectometer, an original optical signal to the temperature sensing fiber-optic cable provided in a sewer pipe;
S2: feeding back, by the temperature sensing fiber-optic cable, a modulated optical signal to the optical time-domain reflectometer due to a temperature effect;
S3: subjecting, by the distributed fiber-optic temperature measurement instrument, the modulated optical signal to photoelectric conversion to acquire binary information characterizing a measurement time, a measured temperature, and a fiber location;
S4: converting, by the data interpretation module, the binary information into decimal information;
S5: drawing a spatiotemporal map of a water temperature inside the sewer pipe based on the decimal information; and
S6: eliminating a background noise value in the spatiotemporal map of the water temperature, identifying an abnormal water temperature point, and determining an inflow and infiltration point of the sewer pipe;
wherein in step S6, the method of eliminating the background noise value in the spatiotemporal map of the water temperature comprises:
