Abstract

Many kinds of conditioning monitoring technique have been studied, so this study has investigated the possibility of checking the trend in the fault diagnosis of ball bearing, one of the elements of rotating machine, by applying the cepstral analysis method using the adaptive noise cancelling (ANC) method. And computer simulation is conducted in oder to identify obviously the physical meaning of ANC. The optimal adaptation gain in adaptive filter is estimated, the performance of ANC according to the change of the signal to noise ratio and convergence of LMS algorithm is considered by simulation. It is verified that cepstral analysis using ANC method is more effective than the conventional cepstral analysis method in bearing fault diagnosis.
