Noise cancellation is one of the most successful applications of the wavelet transform. Its basic idea is to compare wavelet decomposition coefficients with the given thresholds and only keep those bigger ones and set those smaller ones to zero and then do wavelet reconstruction with those new coefficients. It is most likely for this method to treat some useful weak components as noise and eliminate them. Based on the cyclostationary property of vibration signals of rotating machines, a novel wavelet noise cancellation method is proposed. A numerical signal and an experimental signal of rubbing fault are used to test and compare the performances of the new method and the conventional wavelet based denoising method provided by MATLAB. The results show that the new noise cancellation method can efficaciously suppress the noise component at all frequency bands and has better denoising performance than the conventional one.

On the basis of wavelet denoising and its better time-frequency characteristic, this paper presents an effective vibration signal denoising method for food refrigerant air compressor. The solution of eliminating strong noise is investigated with the combination of soft threshold and exponential lipschitza. The good denoising results show that the presented method is effective for improving the signal noise ratio and builds the good foundation for further extraction of the vibration signals.

In order to improve the performance of the denoising method for vibration signals of rotating machinery, a new method of signal denoising based on the improved median filter and wavelet packet technology is proposed through analysing the characteristics of noise components and relevant denoising methods. Firstly, the window width of the median filter is calculated according to the sampling frequency so that the impulse noise and part of the white noise can be effectively filtered out. Secondly, an improved self-adaptive wavelet packet denoising technique is used to remove the residual white noise. Finally, useful vibration signals are obtained after the previous processing. Simulation signals and rotor experimental vibration signals were used to verify the performance of the method. Experiment results show that the method can not only effectively eliminate the mixed complex noises but also preserve the fault character details, which demonstrates that the proposed method outperforms the method based on the wavelet-domain median filter.

The article investigates the use of wavelets to remove noise from the measuring vibration signal. It is determined that wavelets are well adapted for signal analysis, for which the principle of causality is important: wavelets preserve the direction of time and do not create parasitic interference between the past and the future. Criteria for selecting an analytical wavelet have been developed, depending on what information should be extracted from the signal and the need to more fully identify and emphasize certain properties of the analyzed signal. It is proposed to use Daubechies wavelets to process the vibration signal data. The simulation of vibration signal filtering from noise with the normal distribution law is performed in the MATCAD package. It is proved that the method of wavelet transform allows to solve the problem of filtering the vibration signal from noise when processing vibration signals obtained by autonomous recording devices in conditions of increased interference from the environment. The obtained results evidence to the prospects of the developed method and its advantages in comparison with the hardware solution of the filtering problem.

In this paper, a damage sensitive feature based on the wavelet transform of the vibration signal is derived. The theoretical aspects of wavelet decomposition of vibration signals are presented. It is shown that the energies of the wavelet coefficients at appropriate scales can be used as damage sensitive features. Expressions for the energies of wavelet coefficients using the Haar wavelet basis function are derived for a single degree and a multidegree of freedom system. It is shown that the energies of the wavelet coefficients extracted at higher scales are functions of the physical parameters of the system and the loading function. Finally, the migration of damage sensitive feature vectors with damage is illustrated for the ASCE Benchmark Structure.

In order to overcome the shortcomings (such as the time–frequency localization and the nonstationary signal analysis ability) of the Fourier transform, time–frequency analysis has been carried out by wavelet packet decomposition and reconstruction according to the actual nonstationary vibration signal from a large equipment located in a large Steel Corporation in this article. The effect of wavelet decomposition on signal denoising and the selection of high-frequency weight coefficients for each layer on signal denoising were analyzed. The nonlinear prediction of the chaotic time series was made by global method, local method, weighted first-order local method, and maximum Lyapunov exponent prediction method correspondingly. It was found the multi-step prediction method is better than other prediction methods.

A new vibration signal denoising method of hydropower unit based on noise-assisted multivariate empirical mode decomposition (NA-MEMD) and approximate entropy is proposed. Firstly, the NA-MEMD is used to decompose the signal into a number of intrinsic mode functions. Then, the approximate entropy of each component is computed. According to a preset threshold of approximate entropy, these components are reconstructed to denoise vibration signal of hydropower unit. The analysis results of simulation signal and real-world signal show that the proposed method is adaptive and has a good denoising performance. It is very suitable for online denoising of hydropower unit's vibration signal.

Denoising is an essential part of fault signal analysis. This paper proposes a kernel independent component analysis (KICA)-based denoising method for removing the noise from vibration signal. By introducing noise components of the observed signal, one-dimensional observed signal is extended to multi-dimensional signal. Then performing KICA on multidimensional signal, the noise in the observed signal consistent with the introduced noise will be removed that achieve the purpose of denosing. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the case study.

Denoising and extraction of the weak signals are crucial to mechanical equipment fault diagnostics, especially for early fault detection, in which cases fault features are very weak and masked by the noise. The wavelet transform has been widely used in mechanical faulty signal denoising due to its extraordinary timefrequency representation capability. However, the mechanical faulty signals are often non-stationary, with the structure varying significantly within each scale. Because a single wavelet filter cannot mimic the signal structure of an entire scale, the traditional wavelet-based signal denoising method cannot achieve an ideal effect, and even worse some faulty information of the raw signal may be lost in the denoising process. To overcome this deficiency, a novel mechanical faulty signal denoising method using a redundant non-linear second generation wavelet transform is proposed. In this method, an optimal prediction operator is selected for each transforming sample according to the selection criterion of minimizing each individual prediction error. Consequently, the selected predictor can always fit the local characteristics of the signals. The signal denoising results from both simulated signals and experimental data are presented and both support the proposed method.
