Ring-Space Array Torque Measure System and Signal Singularity Detection
Torque is the most important dynamic characteristics of the mechanically-driven system. In order to monitor the mechanical principal axis in real time, a new non-contact torque measurement system based on ring-space array sensor is proposed. This system can be used for the analysis of dynamic characteristics of the mechanical system’s axis under various loads and hard working environments. Singularity in the collected signals is most important with the mechanical system. Because of much noise was contained in collected signals, which always interferes the signal’s singularity detection. According to the different behaves of signal and noise under wavelet transform, a method with wavelet filtering and singularity detection combined is proposed. This method could realize two-dimension filtering reconstruction in both time and frequency domain, in which the singularity information in signal can be kept well while the noise will be filtered. The proposed method is suitable for singularity detection of signals under serious noise.
