Popis: Oscillations are a common abnormal phenomenon in the process control system. They can degrade control performance or even cause plant shutdown. It is crucial to accurately detect and characterize the process oscillations. In this article, a novel oscillation detector is proposed by combining the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and nonlinear chirp mode decomposition (NCMD). Because the performance of NCMD relies on the selection of mode number Q and bandwidth parameter α, PSO is utilized to search the optimal parameter pairs. Then, the multiple oscillations contained in the process variables (PV) can be extracted by NCMD with the optimal parameters. The normalized correlation index and sparseness index are used to discarding the spurious modes and quantifying the degree of oscillations, respectively. After detecting, by utilizing the time-frequency information provided by the oscillating modes, multiple oscillation types can be accurately characterized. Comparisons are provided to show the advantages of the proposed method. The effectiveness and utility are validated by simulations as well as various industrial cases.
