- Abstract
- Early stage faults detection for machine health monitoring demands high level of fault classification accuracy under poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Vibration signal which is used for signature matching in case of abnormality detection and diagnosis, requires robust tools such as wavelet transform (WT) for time-frequency analysis. WT is specifically used to deal with nonstationary signals. In order to guarantee improved performance under poor SNR, this paper proposes a scheme for feature extraction based on fourth-order cumulant and stationary wavelet transform (FoCSWT). Higher order cumulants have the tendency to mitigate the impact of Gaussian noise. Fourth-order cumulant corresponds to the "peakedness" of the random distribution and the fault detection capability quantifies it as the most dominant cumulant among higher order statistics. Stationary wavelet transform is used to avoid down-sampling on the vibration data prior to feature extraction which gives better estimation of statistical parameters of the data distribution and gives performance enhancement in terms of fault classification accuracy. Simulation studies show that FoCSWT outperforms the existing techniques in terms of fault detection accuracies under poor SNR.
