Impulsive Noise Cancellation Method for Copper Ore Crusher Vibration Signals Enhancement

摘要

In this paper, we deal with a problem of local damage detection in bearings in the presence of a high-energy impulsive noise. Such a problem was identified during diagnostics of bearings in raw materials crusher. Unfortunately, classical approaches cannot be applied due to the impulsive character of the noise. In this paper we propose, a procedure that cancels out impulsive noise rather than extracts signal of interest. The methodology is based on the regime switching model with two regimes: first corresponding to high-energy noncyclic impulses and second to the rest of the signal. We apply the proposed technique to a simulated signal as well as to the real one. Effectiveness of the method is presented graphically using time series, time-frequency spectrogram, and classical envelope analysis. The obtained results indicate efficiency of the method in impulsive noise cancellation and improve the ability to detect a damage.
