Abstract
Noise and vibration signal classification can be applied to fault diagnosis in mechanical and electronic systems such as electric vehicles. Traditional signal classification technology uses signal time and frequency domain characteristics as the identification basis. This study proposes a technique for visualizing sound signals using the Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) method to extract vibration signal characteristics and artificial neural networks as the signal classification basis. A brushless motor is used as the machinery power source to verify the feasibility of this method to classify different signal vibration characteristics. In this experimental work, six states in various brushless motor revolutions were deliberately designed for measuring vibration signals. The brushless motor vibration signal is imaged using the WVD analysis method to extract the vibration signal characteristics. Through the WVD method, the brushless motor data is converted, and the YOLO (you only look once) deep coiling machine neural method is used to identify and classify the brushless motor WVD images. The Wagener analysis method parameters and recognition rates are discussed, thereby improving accurate motor fault diagnostic capabilities. This research provides a method for fault diagnosis that can be accurately performed without dismantling the brushless motor. The proposed approach can improve the reliability and stability of brushless motor applications.
