Abstract
Due to the fault vibration signal of the rolling bearing is greatly interfered by the background noise, the fault features are easily submerged and result in a low fault diagnosis accuracy. A novel fault diagnosis method of rolling bearing is proposed based on improved VMD-adaptive wavelet threshold combined with noise reduction in this paper. Firstly, the modal components are obtained based on VMD decomposition; Secondly, the dual determination criteria of sample entropy and correlation coefficient are constructed to filter the components; Subsequently, an adaptive wavelet thresholding function is proposed, and quadratic noise reduction is applied to mixed IMFs, which in turn reconstructs each component to achieve joint noise reduction. Finally, based on traditional machine learning and deep learning diagnosis methods, the features of noise reduction signals are extracted to realize fault diagnosis. By verifying and analyzing the simulated signal with the measured signal, noise components, the expression of fault characteristics, and the accuracy of fault diagnosis are eliminated, enhanced, and improved.
