Abstract
The detection of rolling bearing faults is essential to ensure the operational safety of rotating machinery. An effective method for diagnosing rolling bearing faults is the maximum second-order cyclostationarity blind deconvolution (CYCBD) method, which has the ability to extract weak fault periodic pulse features. However, blind deconvolution methods such as CYCBD often fail when composite bearing faults occur in the presence of strong background noise. To overcome this issue, an adaptive blind deconvolution (ABDD) method based on improved CYCBD is proposed. In this method, a finite impulse response (FIR) filter bank is constructed to cover the entire frequency band of the signal, enabling fault frequency segmentation. The improved CYCBD is then used to obtain a filter pattern that locks on the fault frequency. These filter patterns are arranged in descending order based on the correlation kurtosis (CK). The required filtering mode is selected according to the sorting mode, and a spectrum analysis is performed to extract fault features of single and compound faults in the bearing. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that ABDD effectively extracts bearing composite fault features and outperforms classic feature decomposition and blind deconvolution methods in extracting single and composite fault features.
