In this paper, a time-domain signal processing method is proposed to extract the real-time time-varying cable frequency. The proposed conjugate-pair decomposition (CPD) method uses empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and then the instantaneous frequency can be extracted by post-processing the conjugate-pair of IMFs. Several numerical simulations and a composite cable-stayed bridge experiment are used to validate the accuracy and capability of the proposed method for tracking time-varying cable frequency. Moreover, the proposed method may be further used to assess cable fatigue damage. |
