While Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) and Empirical Wavelet Transform (EWT) offer valuable support for studying signal components, they also present certain limitations. This article integrates the strengths of both methods and proposes an enhanced approach that integrates VMD into the frequency band division principle of EWT. Initially, the method decomposes the signal using VMD, determining the mode count based on residuals, and subsequently employs EWT decomposition based on this information. This addresses mode aliasing issues in the original method while capitalizing on VMD’s adaptability. Feasibility was confirmed through simulation signals and ultimately applied to noise signals from vibrators. Experimental results demonstrate that the improved method not only resolves EWT frequency band division challenges but also effectively decomposes signal components compared to the VMD method.展开更多

According to investigation, more than half of rotating machinery defects are related to bearing faults. However, reliable bearing fault detection still remains a challenging task, especially in industrial applications. The objective of this work is to propose an adaptive variational mode decomposition (AVMD) technique for non-stationary signal analysis and bearing fault detection. The AVMD includes several steps in processing: 1) Signal characteristics are analyzed to determine the signal center frequency and the related parameters. 2) The ensemble-kurtosis index is suggested to decompose the target signal and select the most representative intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). 3) The envelope spectrum analysis is performed using the selected IMFs to identify the characteristic features for bearing fault detection. The effectiveness of the proposed AVMD technique is examined by experimental tests under different bearing conditions, with the comparison of other related bearing fault techniques.展开更多

Wind power is associated with its uncertainty,multi-frequency and nonlinearity for it is susceptible to climatic factors such as temperature, air pressure and wind speed.Therefore, this paper proposes a wind power prediction model combining multi-frequency combination and feature selection.Firstly, the variational mode decomposition(VMD) is used to decompose the wind power data, and the sub-components with different fluctuation characteristics are obtained and divided into high-, intermediate-, and low-frequency components according to their fluctuation characteristics. Then, a feature set including historical data of wind power and meteorological factors is established, which chooses the feature sets of each component by using the max-relevance and min-redundancy(m RMR) feature selection method based on mutual information selected from the above set. Each component and its corresponding feature set are used as an input set for prediction afterwards. Thereafter, the high-frequency input set is predicted using back propagation neural network(BPNN), and the intermediate-and low-frequency input sets are predicted using least squares support vector machine(LS-SVM). After obtaining the prediction results of each component, BPNN is used for integration to obtain the final predicted value of wind power, and the ramping rate is verified. Finally, through the comparison, it is found that the proposed model has higher prediction accuracy.展开更多

This paper introduces a novel approach to extracting reflected waves by sequentially operating in the spatial frequency and curvelet domains. Using variation mode decomposition(VMD), single-channel spatial domain signals within the common offset gather are iteratively decomposed into high-wavenumber and low-wavenumber intrinsic mode functions(IMFs). The low-wavenumber IMF is then subtracted from the overall waveform to attenuate direct mode waves. Subsequently, the curvelet transform is employed to segregate upgoing and downgoing reflected waves within the filtered curvelet domain. As a result, direct mode waves are substantially suppressed, while the integrity of reflected waves is fully preserved. The efficacy of this approach is validated through processing synthetic and field data, underscoring its potential as a robust extraction technique.展开更多

Firstly, the wind speed time series data was processed using Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) to obtain multiple frequency components. Then, each individual frequency component was channeled into a combined prediction framework consisting of BP neural network (BPNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM) after the execution of differential and normalization operations. Thereafter, the predictive outputs for each component underwent integration through a fully-connected neural architecture for data fusion processing, resulting in the final prediction. The VMD decomposition technique was introduced in a generalized CNN-LSTM prediction model;a BPNN model was utilized to predict high-frequency components obtained from VMD, and incorporated a fully connected neural network for data fusion of individual component predictions. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed improved VMD-BP-CNN-LSTM model outperformed other combined prediction models in terms of prediction accuracy, providing a solid foundation for optimizing the safe operation of wind farms.展开更多

文摘The ultrasonic echo in liquid density measurement often suffers noise,which makes it difficult to obtain the useful echo waveform,resulting in low accuracy of density measurement.A denoising method based on improved variational mode decomposition(VMD)for noise echo signals is proposed.The number of decomposition layers of the traditional VMD is hard to determine,therefore,the center frequency similarity factor is firstly constructed and used as the judgment criterion to select the number of VMD decomposition layers adaptively;Secondly,VMD algorithm is used to decompose the echo signal into several modal components with a single modal component,and the useful echo components are extracted based on the features of the ultrasonic emission signal;Finally,the liquid density is calculated by extracting the amplitude and time of the echo from the modal components.The simulation results show that using the improved VMD to decompose the echo signal not only can improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the echo signal to 20.64 dB,but also can accurately obtain the echo information such as time and amplitude.Compared with the ensemble empirical mode decomposition(EEMD),this method effectively suppresses the modal aliasing,keeps the details of the signal to the maximum extent while suppressing noise,and improves the accuracy of the liquid density measurement.The density measurement accuracy can reach 0.21%of full scale.

文摘Improving short-term wind speed prediction accuracy and stability remains a challenge for wind forecasting researchers.This paper proposes a new variational mode decomposition(VMD)-attention-based spatio-temporal network(VASTN)method that takes advantage of both temporal and spatial correlations of wind speed.First,VASTN is a hybrid wind speed prediction model that combines VMD,squeeze-and-excitation network(SENet),and attention mechanism(AM)-based bidirectional long short-term memory(BiLSTM).VASTN initially employs VMD to decompose the wind speed matrix into a series of intrinsic mode functions(IMF).Then,to extract the spatial features at the bottom of the model,each IMF employs an improved convolutional neural network algorithm based on channel AM,also known as SENet.Second,it combines BiLSTM and AM at the top layer to extract aggregated spatial features and capture temporal dependencies.Finally,VASTN accumulates the predictions of each IMF to obtain the predicted wind speed.This method employs VMD to reduce the randomness and instability of the original data before employing AM to improve prediction accuracy through mapping weight and parameter learning.Experimental results on real-world data demonstrate VASTN’s superiority over previous related algorithms.
文摘Rolling element bearings are commonly used in rotary mechanical and electrical equipment. According to investigation, more than half of rotating machinery defects are related to bearing faults. However, reliable bearing fault detection still remains a challenging task, especially in industrial applications. The objective of this work is to propose an adaptive variational mode decomposition (AVMD) technique for non-stationary signal analysis and bearing fault detection. The AVMD includes several steps in processing: 1) Signal characteristics are analyzed to determine the signal center frequency and the related parameters. 2) The ensemble-kurtosis index is suggested to decompose the target signal and select the most representative intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). 3) The envelope spectrum analysis is performed using the selected IMFs to identify the characteristic features for bearing fault detection. The effectiveness of the proposed AVMD technique is examined by experimental tests under different bearing conditions, with the comparison of other related bearing fault techniques.

文摘Accurate wind power prediction can scientifically arrange wind power output and timely adjust power system dispatching plans. Wind power is associated with its uncertainty,multi-frequency and nonlinearity for it is susceptible to climatic factors such as temperature, air pressure and wind speed.Therefore, this paper proposes a wind power prediction model combining multi-frequency combination and feature selection.Firstly, the variational mode decomposition(VMD) is used to decompose the wind power data, and the sub-components with different fluctuation characteristics are obtained and divided into high-, intermediate-, and low-frequency components according to their fluctuation characteristics. Then, a feature set including historical data of wind power and meteorological factors is established, which chooses the feature sets of each component by using the max-relevance and min-redundancy(m RMR) feature selection method based on mutual information selected from the above set. Each component and its corresponding feature set are used as an input set for prediction afterwards. Thereafter, the high-frequency input set is predicted using back propagation neural network(BPNN), and the intermediate-and low-frequency input sets are predicted using least squares support vector machine(LS-SVM). After obtaining the prediction results of each component, BPNN is used for integration to obtain the final predicted value of wind power, and the ramping rate is verified. Finally, through the comparison, it is found that the proposed model has higher prediction accuracy.

文摘Due to the significant intermittent,stochastic and non-stationary nature of wind power generation,it is difficult to achieve the desired prediction accuracy.Therefore,a wind power prediction method based on improved variational modal decomposition with permutation entropy is proposed.First,based on the meteorological data of wind farms,the Spearman correlation coefficient method is used to filter the meteorological data that are strongly correlated with the wind power to establish the wind power prediction model data set;then the original wind power is decomposed using the improved variational modal decomposition technique to eliminate the noise in the data,and the decomposed wind power is reconstructed into a new subsequence by using the permutation entropy;with the meteorological data and the new subsequence as input variables,a stacking deeply integrated prediction model is developed;and finally the prediction results are obtained by optimizing the hyperparameters of the model algorithm through a genetic algorithm.The validity of the model is verified using a real data set from a wind farm in north-west China.The results show that the mean absolute error,root mean square error and mean absolute percentage error are improved by at least 33.1%,56.1%and 54.2%compared with the autoregressive integrated moving average model,the support vector machine,long short-term memory,extreme gradient enhancement and convolutional neural networks and long short-term memory models,indicating that the method has higher prediction accuracy.

文摘Remote reflection waves, essential for acquiring high-resolution images of geological structures beyond boreholes, often suffer contamination from strong direct mode waves propagating along the borehole.Consequently, the extraction of weak reflected waves becomes pivotal for optimizing migration image quality. This paper introduces a novel approach to extracting reflected waves by sequentially operating in the spatial frequency and curvelet domains. Using variation mode decomposition(VMD), single-channel spatial domain signals within the common offset gather are iteratively decomposed into high-wavenumber and low-wavenumber intrinsic mode functions(IMFs). The low-wavenumber IMF is then subtracted from the overall waveform to attenuate direct mode waves. Subsequently, the curvelet transform is employed to segregate upgoing and downgoing reflected waves within the filtered curvelet domain. As a result, direct mode waves are substantially suppressed, while the integrity of reflected waves is fully preserved. The efficacy of this approach is validated through processing synthetic and field data, underscoring its potential as a robust extraction technique.

文摘The permeability index is one of the important production indicators to monitor the operation of blast furnace.It is crucial to grasp the trends of changes in the new permeability index in time.For the complex vibration spectrum of the permeability index,a prediction model of the permeability index based on the VMD-PSO-BP(variational mode decomposition-particle swarm optimization-back propagation)method was proposed.Firstly,the key factors that affect the permeability index of blast furnace were studied from multiple perspectives.Then,the permeability index was divided into multiple sub-modes based on the difference of frequency bands by the VMD algorithm,and a PSO-BP prediction model was established for each sub-mode.Finally,the prediction results of each sub-mode were summed to obtain the final one.The results show that the composite prediction accuracy by using the VMD algorithm is 3%higher than that of the traditional prediction method,which has better applicability.
文摘Amid the randomness and volatility of wind speed, an improved VMD-BP-CNN-LSTM model for short-term wind speed prediction was proposed to assist in power system planning and operation in this paper. Firstly, the wind speed time series data was processed using Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) to obtain multiple frequency components. Then, each individual frequency component was channeled into a combined prediction framework consisting of BP neural network (BPNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM) after the execution of differential and normalization operations. Thereafter, the predictive outputs for each component underwent integration through a fully-connected neural architecture for data fusion processing, resulting in the final prediction. The VMD decomposition technique was introduced in a generalized CNN-LSTM prediction model;a BPNN model was utilized to predict high-frequency components obtained from VMD, and incorporated a fully connected neural network for data fusion of individual component predictions. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed improved VMD-BP-CNN-LSTM model outperformed other combined prediction models in terms of prediction accuracy, providing a solid foundation for optimizing the safe operation of wind farms.

文摘Considering the noise problem of the acquisition signals frommechanical transmission systems,a novel denoising method is proposed that combines Variational Mode Decomposition(VMD)with wavelet thresholding.The key innovation of this method lies in the optimization of VMD parameters K and α using the improved Horned Lizard Optimization Algorithm(IHLOA).An inertia weight parameter is introduced into the random walk strategy of HLOA,and the related formula is improved.The acquisition signal can be adaptively decomposed into some Intrinsic Mode Functions(IMFs),and the high-noise IMFs are identified based on a correlation coefficient-variance method.Further noise reduction is achieved using wavelet thresholding.The proposed method is validated using simulated signals and experimental signals,and simulation results indicate that the proposed method surpasses original VMD,Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD),and wavelet thresholding in terms of Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR)and Root Mean Square Error(RMSE),and experimental results indicate that the proposedmethod can effectively remove noise in terms of three evaluationmetrics.Furthermore,comparedwith FeatureModeDecomposition(FMD)andMultichannel Singular Spectrum Analysis(MSSA),this method has a better envelope spectrum.This method not only provides a solution for noise reduction in signal processing but also holds significant potential for applications in structural health monitoring and fault diagnosis.

文摘This paper proposes an integrated multi-stage framework to enhance frequency modulated continuous wave(FMCW)automotive radar performance under high noise and interference.The four-stage pipeline is applied consecutively:(i)an improved independent component analysis(ICA)blindly separates the two-channel echoes,isolating target and interference components;(ii)a recursive least-squares(RLS)filter compensates amplitude-and phase-mismatches,restoring signal fidelity;(iii)variational mode decomposition(VMD)followed by the Hilbert-Huang Transform(HHT)extracts noise-free intrinsic mode functions(IMFs)and sharpens their time-frequency signatures;and(iv)HHT-based beat-frequency estimation reconstructs a clean echo and delivers accurate range information.Finally,key IMFs are reconstructed into a clean signal,and a beat-frequency estimation via HHT confirms accurate distance results,closely aligning with theoretical predictions.On synthetic data with an input signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of 12.7 dB,the pipeline delivers a 7.6 dB SNR gain,yields a mean-squared error of 0.25 m2,and achieves a range root-mean-square error(Range-RMSE)of 0.50 m.Empirical evaluations demonstrate that this enhanced ICA and VMD/HHT scheme effectively restores the fundamental echo signature,providing a robust approach for advanced driver assistance systems(ADAS).
