Abstract

The fault vibration signal of rotating machinery usually represents an AM-FM characteristic, so demodulating vibration signal is an effective method for fault diagnosis. Hilbert transform (HT) is widely used to demodulate the monocomponent signal. Unfortunately, HT is likely to generate unexplainable negative frequencies. Therefore, the empirical AM and FM demodulation (EAD) method, instead of HT, is taken as an alternative to demodulate mono-component signal to overcome the negative frequency problem of HT. In this paper, an improved EAD is proposed to improve the signal demodulation performance from three aspects, including the boundary processing, envelope estimation and demodulation stopping criterion. For the boundary processing and envelope estimation, the mirror extension and moving average methods are used respectively. For demodulation stopping criterion, a soft demodulation stopping criterion is proposed to determine the optimal iteration numbers of demodulation process. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the improved EAD will be validated with a large number of simulation cases.
