Abstract

The vibration signals of rolling bearings are complex and changeable, and extracting meaningful features is difficult. Currently, the commonly used empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithms have the problem of mode aliasing. In this paper, a new feature extraction method based on the improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adapted noise (ICEEMDAN) and permutation entropy is proposed. In this method, the ICEEMDAN algorithm is first improved and optimized to enable a self-selection function The vibration signal is then decomposed into several intrinsic modal functions using this algorithm, and the permutation entropy is extracted as the fault feature of rolling bearings, which improves the accuracy of fault classification and realizes the intelligent feature extraction of different fault states. Then, the Case Western Reserve University dataset is used for verification, and the results show that this scheme can effectively separate the vibration signal characteristics of bearings in different states, and can be used to characterize the characteristics of different bearing signals. Finally, based on the mechanical transmission system bearing experimental platform independently developed by our school, the experimental results show that compared with the unimproved ICEEMDAN algorithm, the diagnostic accuracy rate of the proposed method is 99.5%, which is increased by 6.4%, and it can be effectively used for feature extraction of rolling bearings.
