A time-frequency analysis technique is proposed to enhance the estimation capability for an impact mass for a shell type structure. The validity of the proposed method is verified through an experiment. The experimental result demonstrates that the proposed method is valid for estimating the center frequency of an impact response signal easily, even in a noisy environment. It is expected that the proposed method can be used to enhance the accuracy of an impact mass estimation for a shell type structure.

Smart eyewear (e.g., AR glasses) is considered to be the next big breakthrough for wearable devices. The interaction of state-of-the-art smart eyewear mostly relies on the touchpad which is obtrusive and not user-friendly. In this work, we propose a novel acoustic-based upper facial action (UFA) recognition system that serves as a hands-free interaction mechanism for smart eyewear. The proposed system is a glass-mounted acoustic sensing system with several pairs of commercial speakers and microphones to sense UFAs. There are two main challenges in designing the system. The first challenge is that the system is in a severe multipath environment and the received signal could have large attenuation due to the frequency-selective fading which will degrade the system's performance. To overcome this challenge, we design an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)-based channel state information (CSI) estimation scheme that is able to measure the phase changes caused by a facial action while mitigating the frequency-selective fading. The second challenge is that because the skin deformation caused by a facial action is tiny, the received signal has very small variations. Thus, it is hard to derive useful information directly from the received signal. To resolve this challenge, we apply a time-frequency analysis to derive the time-frequency domain signal from the CSI. We show that the derived time-frequency domain signal contains distinct patterns for different UFAs. Furthermore, we design a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to extract high-level features from the time-frequency patterns and classify the features into six UFAs, namely, cheek-raiser, brow-raiser, brow-lower, wink, blink and neutral. We evaluate the performance of our system through experiments on data collected from 26 subjects. The experimental result shows that our system can recognize the six UFAs with an average F1-score of 0.92.

Purpose To reduce the influence of temperature on MEMS gyroscope, this paper aims to propose a temperature drift compensation method based on variational modal decomposition (VMD), time-frequency peak filter (TFPF), mind evolutionary algorithm (MEA) and BP neural network. Design/methodology/approach First, VMD decomposes gyro’s temperature drift sequence to obtain multiple intrinsic mode functions (IMF) with different center frequencies and then Sample entropy calculates, according to the complexity of the signals, they are divided into three categories, namely, noise signals, mixed signals and temperature drift signals. Then, TFPF denoises the mixed-signal, the noise signal is directly removed and the denoised sub-sequence is reconstructed, which is used as training data to train the MEA optimized BP to obtain a temperature drift compensation model. Finally, the gyro’s temperature characteristic sequence is processed by the trained model. Findings The experimental result proved the superiority of this method, the bias stability value of the compensation signal is 1.279 × 10–3°/h and the angular velocity random walk value is 2.132 × 10–5°/h/vHz, which is improved compared to the 3.361°/h and 1.673 × 10–2°/h/vHz of the original output signal of the gyro. Originality/value This study proposes a multi-dimensional processing method, which treats different noises separately, effectively protects the low-frequency characteristics and provides a high-precision training set for drift modeling. TFPF can be optimized by SEVMD parallel processing in reducing noise and retaining static characteristics, MEA algorithm can search for better threshold and connection weight of BP network and improve the model’s compensation effect.

The joint time-frequency analysis method is adopted to study the nonlinear behavior varying with the instantaneous response for a class of S.D.O.F nonlinear system. A time-frequency masking operator, together with the conception of effective time-frequency region of the asymptotic signal are defined here. Based on these mathematical foundations, a so-called skeleton linear model (SLM) is constructed which has similar nonlinear characteristics with the nonlinear system. Two skeleton curves are deduced which can indicate the stiffness and damping in the nonlinear system. The relationship between the SLM and the nonlinear system, both parameters and solutions, is clarified. Based on this work a new identification technique of nonlinear systems using the nonstationary vibration data will be proposed through time-frequency filtering technique and wavelet transform in the following paper.

Abstract Wind turbines usually operate in harsh environments and in working conditions of variable speed, which easily causes their key components such as gearboxes to fail. The gearbox vibration signal of a wind turbine has nonstationary characteristics, and the existing Time-Frequency (TF) Analysis (TFA) methods have some problems such as insufficient concentration of TF energy. In order to obtain a more apparent and more congregated Time-Frequency Representation (TFR), this paper proposes a new TFA method, namely Adaptive Multiple Second-order Synchrosqueezing Wavelet Transform (AMWSST2). Firstly, a short-time window is innovatively introduced on the foundation of classical Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), and the window width is adaptively optimized by using the center frequency and scale factor. After that, a smoothing process is carried out between different segments to eliminate the discontinuity and thus Adaptive Wavelet Transform (AWT) is generated. Then, on the basis of the theoretical framework of Synchrosqueezing Transform (SST) and accurate Instantaneous Frequency (IF) estimation by the utilization of second-order local demodulation operator, Adaptive Second-order Synchrosqueezing Wavelet Transform (AWSST2) is formed. Considering that the quality of actual time-frequency analysis is greatly disturbed by noise components, through performing multiple Synchrosqueezing operations, the congregation of TFR energy is further improved, and finally, the AMWSST2 algorithm studied in this paper is proposed. Since Synchrosqueezing operations are performed only in the frequency direction, this method AMWSST2 allows the signal to be perfectly reconstructed. For the verification of its effectiveness, this paper applies it to the processing of the vibration signal of the gearbox of a 750 kW wind turbine.

Deep learning methods have been widely used in the field of intelligent fault diagnosis due to their powerful feature learning and classification capabilities. However, it is easy to overfit depth models because of the large number of parameters brought by the multilayer-structure. As a result, the methods with excellent performance under experimental conditions may severely degrade under noisy environment conditions, which are ubiquitous in practical industrial applications. In this paper, a novel method combining a one-dimensional (1-D) denoising convolutional autoencoder (DCAE) and a 1-D convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed to address this problem, whereby the former is used for noise reduction of raw vibration signals and the latter for fault diagnosis using the de-noised signals. The DCAE model is trained with noisy input for denoising learning. In the CNN model, a global average pooling layer, instead of fully-connected layers, is applied as a classifier to reduce the number of parameters and the risk of overfitting. In addition, randomly corrupted signals are adopted as training samples to improve the anti-noise diagnosis ability. The proposed method is validated by bearing and gearbox datasets mixed with Gaussian noise. The experimental result shows that the proposed DCAE model is effective in denoising and almost causes no loss of input information, while the using of global average pooling and input-corrupt training improves the anti-noise ability of the CNN model. As a result, the method combined the DCAE model and the CNN model can realize high-accuracy diagnosis even under noisy environment.

Sea is rich in oil and gas resources, the marine controlled source electromagnetic method (CSEM) is a kind of method seabed oil gas geophysical technology rising in recent years. Because of the problem of CSEM about the air wave in the shallow water, the research of time-frequnecy analysis technique is used to suppress the air wave in this paper. The basic idea is: because of the CSEM signals speed are different in the air and submarine, so the time which received by the receiving points are also different through these two kinds of ways. Using the time-frequency analysis technique and theoretical calculation, we can determine which part of the signal is spread over the ocean, so as to suppress the air wave effectively. This paper lists several methods of time-frequency analysis, such as Short-time Fourier transform, W-V distribution, Wavelet transform, Hilbert Huang transform. Through the time-frequency graph,we get the conclusion that HHT is better than others in concentration degree,and W-V distribution is better than STFT.Compared with the original signal, the time-frequency graph is the best in using Smooth Puseudo W-V Distribution.I have a detailed analysis about real case in using SPWVD at last.

Complex Shifted Morlet Wavelets (CSMW) present a number of advantages when used for the demodulation of the vibration response of defective rolling element bearings: (A) They present the optimally located window simultaneously in the time and in the frequency domains; (B) They allow for the maximal time-frequency resolution; (C) The magnitudes of the complex wavelet coefficients in the time domain lead directly to the required envelope; (D) They allow for the optimal selection of both the center frequency and the bandwidth of the requested filter. A Peak Energy criterion (P. E.) is proposed in this paper for the simultaneous automatic selection of both the center frequency and the bandwidth of the relevant wavelet window to be used. As shown in a number of application cases, this criterion presents a more effective behavior than other criteria used (Crest Factor, Kurtosis, Smoothness Index, Number of Peaks), since it combines the advantages of energy based criteria, with criteria characterizing the spikiness of the response.
