Wheel bearing fault detection, isolation and failure prognosis are critical to improve perceived quality and customer experience for retail vehicles, and to reduce the repair cost and down time for fleet vehicles. Currently, most of the research in bearing failure and degradation diagnosis focus on vibration signal analytics. However, these techniques are rarely applied in automotive industry due to the high sensor cost, installation space limitation, and limited communication bandwidth. In this work, an acoustic based approach for wheel bearing fault detection and isolation is developed to overcome these limitations. Since the bearing noise is a precursor of bearing failure, the proposed method is a prognosis solution. The whole solution is verified using the data collected from a production vehicle. The results show that the proposed method can predict the wheel bearing failure with promising accuracy and robustness.

A new approach to fault diagnosis of bearings based on the Teager–Huang Transform (THT) is presented. This method is based on the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and Teager Kaiser Energy Operator (TKEO) techniques. EMD can adaptively decompose the vibration signal into a series of zero mean Amplitude Modulation-Frequency Modulation (AM-FM) Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs). TKEO can track the instantaneous amplitude and instantaneous frequency of the AM-FM component at any instant. The experimental examples are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The experimental results provide strong evidence that the performance of the Teager–Huang Transform approach is better than that of the Hilbert–Huang Transform approach for bearing fault detection. The Teager–Huang Transform has better resolution than the Hilbert–Huang Transform. The Teager–Huang Transform can effectively diagnose the faults of the bearing, thus providing a viable processing tool for gearbox defect monitoring.
