Popis: The traditional empirical wavelet transform (EWT) based on the Meyer wavelet and scale-space method can decompose a signal into several empirical modes. However, this method is not effective in dealing with strong noise and non-stationary signals, which may lead to modal mixing or even decompose too many invalid components. For this purpose, a method based on the combination of enhanced empirical wavelet transform (EEWT) and correlation kurtosis (CK) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the EEWT is used to segment the spectrum based on the characteristics of the spectrum fluctuations. It uses the minimum points of the envelope as the boundaries of the segmented spectrum. Secondly, a filter bank is constructed based on these boundaries and a maximum value order statistics filter segments the Fourier spectrum with the adaptive decomposition of the signals. Finally, the envelope spectrum generated by CK is used to screen the bearing fault information, which belongs to the decomposition of a signal into empirical modes, so that the rolling bearing fault can be accurately diagnosed. The method’s effectiveness is verified by simulated signal experiments and rolling bearing fault signals. The results show that the performance of the proposed method in this paper is better than that of the traditional EWT. Therefore, the method can be applied to the field of bearing faults or other mechanical fault diagnosis directions.
