1 Advances in Vibration Control of Structures and Machinery - Research Article Reviews of bearing vibration measurement using fast Fourier transform and enhanced fast Fourier transform algorithms Advances in Mechanical Engineering 2019, Vol. 11(1) 1 12 Ó The Author(s) 2019 DOI: / journals.sagepub.com/home/ade Hsiung-Cheng Lin and Yu-Chen Ye Abstract The rolling element bearing is one of the most critical components in a machine. Vibration signals resulting from these bearings imply important bearing defect information related to the machinery faults. Any defect in a bearing may cause a certain vibration with specific frequencies and amplitudes depending on the nature of the defect. Therefore, the vibration analysis plays a key role for fault detection, diagnosis, and prognosis to reach the reliability of the machines. Although fast Fourier transform for time frequency analysis is still widely used in industry, it cannot extract enough frequencies without enough samples. If the real frequency does not match fast Fourier transform frequency grid exactly, the spectrum is spreading mostly among neighboring frequency bins. To resolve this drawback, the recent proposed enhanced fast Fourier transform algorithm was reported to improve this situation. This article reviews and compares both fast Fourier transform and enhanced fast Fourier transform for vibration signal analysis in both simulation and practical work. The comparative results verify that the enhanced fast Fourier transform can provide a better solution than traditional fast Fourier transform. Keywords Vibration, fast Fourier transform, enhanced fast Fourier transform, harmonics, non-stationary Date received: 19 September 2018; accepted: 6 November 2018 Handling Editor: Ali Kazemy Introduction Rolling element bearings have been widely applied in domestic and industrial machinery. These bearings are considered as most critical components, and defects in bearings may cause malfunction or even lead to serious failure of the machinery during operation. The health condition and quality inspection of bearings are directly related to these defects. Therefore, the industrial vibration analysis is regarded as an important measurement tool for identification, prediction, and prevention of failures in rotating machinery. 1 3 For this reason, implementing vibration analysis on the machines can improve the machine efficiency and reliability. Usually, the measurement vibration involves accelerometers to measure the vibration, and then, the data can be collected for further analysis. The plots of vibration signal with time domain or frequency domain may provide sufficient information for the engineers to analyze and Department of Electronic Engineering, National Chin-Yi University of Technology, Taichung, Taiwan Corresponding author: Hsiung-Cheng Lin, Department of Electronic Engineering, National Chin- Yi University of Technology, No.57, Sec. 2, Zhongshan Rd., Taiping Dist., Taichung 41170, Taiwan. hclin@ncut.edu.tw Creative Commons CC BY: This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License ( which permits any use, reproduction and distribution of the work without further permission provided the original work is attributed as specified on the SAGE and Open Access pages ( open-access-at-sage).

2 2 Advances in Mechanical Engineering determine the machine fault. Many bearings premature malfunction may occur from surface roughness, misalignment, discrete defects, unbalance, contamination and temperature extreme, and geometrical imperfections. Modern machines may produce the vibration frequency range between 20 Hz and 20 khz. 4 6 When a fault of rolling bearings begins to develop, the resulting vibration pulses frequencies may repeat periodically. A band of high-frequency vibration may therefore exist before a rolling-element bearing is burnt out Although there are many kinds of methods such as vibration, acoustic, temperature, and wear debris analysis have been reported for diagnosis and analysis of bearing defects, the vibration spectral measurement is the most widely used approach The discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is a popular tool in spectrum analysis. If the vibration is under the stationary conditions, it may be efficient for measurement. However, the fast Fourier transform (FFT) presents a more efficient computation process. In practice, however, the limitation of the DFT or FFT makes it less efficient in analyzing the signal spectrum from defective rolling element bearings due to cyclostationary and nonstationary characteristics Some techniques such as short-time Fourier transform (STFT), Wigner Ville distribution (WVD), and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) are also available for signal time frequency analysis based on two-dimensional (2D) mapping principle However, STFT is unable to simultaneously improve the time and frequency resolutions. 23 WVD is suitable for non-stationary signals processing, but it may cause misinterpretation in the signal analysis due to the bilinear characteristic. 24 CWT algorithm is superior in analyzing simultaneously both frequency and time information for the vibration event. Its inherent large computational time with fixed-scale frequency resolution may discourage practical applications. 25 Hilbert Huang transform (HHT) approach provides vibration signal multi-resolution in the instantaneous frequencies using the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). It is, however, the time resolution may affect the corresponding frequency considerably Alternatively, an envelope spectrum analysis for bearing fault diagnosis is widely used methods such as kurtogram, enhanced kurtogram, improved kurtogram, and sparsogram. The kurtogram is based on the spectral kurtosis that has been used in characterizing nonstationary signals, especially bearing fault signals. 30 However, an analytic bearing fault signal from spectral kurtosis needs to be constructed from either a complex filter or Hilbert transform or filtered by the STFT. Also, its performance efficiency is low in the presence of a low signal-to-noise ratio and non-gaussian noise. The enhanced kurtogram was therefore developed to find the location of resonant frequency bands, but it needs to remove frequency noise by using autoregressive filtering in advance. 31 Although an improved kurtogram method was reported to overcome the shortcomings of the kurtogram, the wavelet packet transform (WPT) is required to adopt as the filter. 32,33 In addition, a sparsogram algorithm was proposed to quickly determine the resonant frequency bands from the envelopes of wavelet packet coefficients at different wavelet packet decomposition depths. 34 The selection of optimal wavelet packet node, however, usually relies on visually inspecting the largest sparsity value from the wavelet packet coefficients. In a recent work, a spectral kurtosis can be decomposed into squared L2/ L1 norm and spectral Lp/Lq as a general form. 35 When p = 1 and q = 0, the general form was reduced to the reciprocal of the smoothness index. Consequently, the resonant frequency bands may be retained for characterizing bearing fault signals. Principle of DFT and enhanced fast Fourier transform models Background of Fourier transformation The FT analysis is a tool to reconstruct a periodical waveform using series harmonics, where harmonic frequency is defined as a multiple of fundamental. If a waveform i s (t) is periodical with Dirichlet condition satisfied, it can be expressed as i s (t)= X n = i n e j2pft ð1þ where i n =(1=T) Ð T 0 i s(t)e j2pft dt and T(= 1/f) is the period. i 0 is a direct current (DC) component. The DFT is a discrete form from time domain as i s ½nŠ = XN 1 k = 0 I s ½kŠW kn N ð2þ where I s ½kŠ =(1=N) P N 1 n = 0 i s½nšwn kn and W N =exp (j2p=n). Assume i s ½nŠ is periodic with the period T, and the Fourier fundamental angular frequency (Dv) can be defined as Dv = 2p ð3þ T For the waveform sampled using p(p. 1) periods, Dv can be represented as where v 0 = 2p=T. Dv = 2p pt = v 0 p ð4þ

3 Lin and Ye 3 Figure 1. Relation between harmonic frequency and dispersed Energy: 39 (a) small-frequency deviation and (b) big-frequency deviation. If the signal is sampled N points using the sampling rate f s, the Fourier fundamental frequency (Df ) can be defined as Df = 1 pt = 1 pn s T s = 1 NT s = f s N ð5þ where N s ¼ D N=p and T s ¼ D 1=f s. The waveform power (P) can be expressed using the Parseval relation as 36,37 P = 1 N X N 1 n = 0 i s ½nŠ 2 = XN 1 I s ½kŠ 2 k = 0 The power at the frequency f k can be expressed as P½f k Š = I s ½kŠ 2 + I s ½N kš 2 = 2I s ½kŠ 2 ð6þ ð7þ where k = 0,1, 2,., N/ The amplitude of the mth harmonic at f k is thus written as p A m ½f k Š = ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi p P½f k Š = ffiffi 2 Is ½kŠ ð8þ where m = 1,2,., M. When the sampling window is not synchronized with the fundamental, the mth harmonic power at f k will disperse over around the f k. Based on the concept of group harmonics, all spilled power around the adjacent harmonics can be collected into a group power as 38,39 P m ½f kš = X+ t Dk = t where t denotes the group bandwidth. (A m ½f k + Dk Š) 2 ð9þ Therefore, the true harmonic amplitude can be retrieved from collecting all dispersed power as qffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi A m ½f kš = P m ½f kš ð10þ Review of the enhanced fast Fourier transform algorithm The enhanced fast Fourier transform (e-fft) algorithm was developed to improve the FFT for suiting non-stationary vibration signal analysis. The relationship between harmonic frequency and dispersed energy can be classified into small-frequency deviation and big-frequency deviation. 39 Case 1: For small-frequency deviation shown in Figure 1(a), the second larger magnitude (A m ½f k + 1 Š)atf k + 1 is located at the right side of the dominant frequency (f k ), that is, A m ½f k Š.A m ½f k + 1 Š. In equation (11), the actual frequency can be corrected to f k plus the frequency deviation (Df k ). Case 2: For a big-frequency deviation shown in Figure 1(b), the second larger amplitude (A m ½f k Š)atf k is located at the left side of the dominant frequency (f k +1 ), that is, A m ½f k Š\A m ½f k + 1 Š. Similarly, the actual frequency can be corrected to f k plus the frequency deviation (Df k ). In addition to the frequency correction, the collected energy dispersed around the major harmonic can be used for retrieving the original amplitude, as shown in equation (12). Based on above principle, the mathematical model was deduced from the relation between the frequency deviation amount and dispersed energy distribution. 39 The real frequency can be corrected by the dominant frequency (f k ) plus frequency deviation (Df k ), that is, f k + Df k.

4 4 Advances in Mechanical Engineering The frequency deviation range (FDR) is therefore defined as sffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi P +t Dk = 1 A m ½f k + Dk Š 2 Df k = sffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi sffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi Df P 0 A m ½f k + Dk Š 2 P + +t A m ½f k + Dk Š 2 Dk = t Dk = 1 ð11þ where Df = f s =N and t =0,1, 2, 3,... The energy dispersed around the major harmonic can be collected and used for retrieving the original amplitude. The restored amplitude (RA) can be defined as vffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi u X +t RA = t A m ½f k + Dk Š 2 Dk= t ð12þ where t =0,1, 2, 3,... The selection of the group bandwidth (t) is determined by the following rule, where f 1 and f 2 are assumed as two near major harmonics.

System structure Setup of measurement platform In the performance test, the proposed vibration measurement system uses the tool machine (QUASER CNC, MV184) combined with accelerometer, as shown in Figure 3. It mainly consists of five parts, which are described in the following. The major blocks in Figure 3 are described as follows. 1. Microprocessor with FFT and e-fft model. The microprocessor (PIC18F4520) is used to implement FFT and e-fft algorithms. It also acts as a communication bridge between the computer (Data Acquisition and Display System) and signal sources, for example, function generator or accelerometer amplifier circuit. Figure 2. Flowchart of the proposed e-fft model. 39

Experimental platform. Figure 4. Accelerometer amplifier circuit. 2. Accelerometer amplifier circuit. The accelerometer (PCB352A25/NC) struck on the tool machine can detect the vibration signal that is then amplified and input to the microprocessor, as shown in Figure 4. The circuit has four parts: Part A is a buffer circuit to provide a high-input impedance, and it can receive the signal from the accelerometer without loss. Part B is an amplification circuit to amplify the detected signal of accelerometer with magnification factor = 158. Part C is a clamp circuit that magnifies the signal 6.8 times with limiting the output signal at the 5 V level. Part D is a second-order filter to filter out the noise signal and allows only k(hz) signals to pass through the circuit. Note that sensitivity of the accelerometer (PCB352A25/NC) is 2.5 mv/g. 3. Data acquisition system. It is designed to receive the data, that is, real-time results from FFT and e-fft models, and all data received can be thus transmitted to the data server immediately. 4. MySQL database management system: It works as a data server using the MySQL database to receive the data from the Data Acquisition System. 5. Hypertext preprocessor dynamic management system. Based on hypertext preprocessor (PHP), it can display all real-time vibration data with FFT and e-fft analyses. All historical records can also be tracked. System execution The system execution block is shown in Figure 5. In the Data Acquisition System, it gives a command to receive the signal spectrum data transmitted from the microprocessor. The received data are then displayed on line and written to MySQL database at the same time. PHP Dynamic Management System can access to MySQL database to upload all real-time vibration data and display dynamic data on line. All historical records can also be tracked. In the Microprocessor with FFT and e-fft model, the vibration signal is acquired via accelerometer amplifier circuit. Then, the microprocessor performs FFT and e-fft computation, where the signal will be thus transformed to frequency domain from time domain. All computation results (spectrum) are temporarily stored in the memory before reading out once the command is received from the Data

Finally, the spectrum data are transmitted to the Data Acquisition System. This procedure will continue until the system stops. Experimental results The experimental tests are divided into two parts: (1) standard signal calibration and (2) practical performance. The standard signals include sine waveform, integer harmonics signal, non-integer harmonics signal, and SHAKER signal. The practical performance will test the vibratory magnitude from the cutting processing of computer numerical control (CNC) machine. Standard signal calibration The precision of the proposed vibration measurement system is calibrated using pre-known signal generated from the function generator. The signal acquisition takes 1024 points using khz sampling rate, where Df = 2 Hz. The signals include 120 Hz sine waveform, 121 Hz sine waveform, 120 square waveform, and 121 square waveform. Note that 2.5 V in the scope scale = 1g (gravity acceleration) after signal amplification adjustment using accelerometer amplifier circuit. 1. Sine waveform (frequency: 120 Hz and ampere: 0.78 V). The results from 120 Hz sine waveform analysis is shown in Figure 6. The amplitude is

Spectrum analysis of 120 Hz square waveform: (a) waveform and (b) spectrum of e-fft and FFT. equal to 0.78 V so that the real spectrum magnitude is 0.312g. The results reveal that the implementation for both FFT and e-fft methods can achieve an accurate spectrum analysis due to no leakage in this case. 2. Sine waveform (frequency: 121 Hz and ampere: 0.78 V). The results from 121 Hz sine waveform analysis is shown in Figure 7. It is clear that e-fft method can obtain the spectrum magnitude = 0.307g that is very close to the real value (0.312g). Also, the major spectrum frequency is Hz that is very close to the real value (121 Hz). However, the result from the FFT analysis shows that the spectrum magnitude is 0.199g, and the frequency is 122 Hz. It is obvious that the errors occur due to a leakage phenomenon for this case. 3. Square waveform (frequency: 120 Hz and ampere: 0.72 V). The waveform of 121 Hz square signal is shown in Figure 8(a), and its spectrum analysis is shown in Figure 8(b). The major amplitude of spectrum is 0.407g for either e-fft or FFT due to no spectrum leakage in this case. 4. Square waveform (frequency: 121 Hz and ampere: 0.72 V). The waveform of 121 Hz square signal is shown in Figure 9(a), and its spectrum analysis is shown in Figure 9(b). The major amplitude and respective frequency of

8 8 Advances in Mechanical Engineering Figure 9. Spectrum analysis of 121 Hz square waveform: (a) waveform and (b) spectrum of e-fft and FFT. spectrum using e-fft model is about 0.4g and 121 Hz, respectively, very close to the real ones. However, the spectrum analysis using FFT shows that the major amplitude and respective frequency of spectrum are 0.263g and 122 Hz, respectively, indicating some errors due to the spectrum leakage. Real-time signal performance In this section, there are three kinds of real-time signals to test: (a) synthetized signal generated from the NI- DAQ output using LabVIEW programming, (b) vibration signal generated from SHAKER device, and (c) vibration signal detected from the tool machine. These tests sampled the waveform with 1024 points based on khz sampling rate, that is, Df = 2 Hz. Note that set 1 V in the scope scale = 1g (gravity acceleration) after signal amplification adjustment using accelerometer amplifier circuit in this case. (a) Synthetized signal test. The synthetized signal v(t)=a 1 (2pf 1 t)+a 2 (2pf 2 t)+a 3 (2pf 3 t)+a 4 (2pf 4 t) + a 5 (2pf 5 t)+a 6 (2pf 6 t), containing non-integer harmonics and f 1 =56:8 Hz, a 1 =0:115 V, f 2 =191 Hz, a 2 =0:071 V, f 3 =315 Hz; a 3 =0:225 V, f 4 = 593 Hz, a 4 = 0:09 V, f 5 = 777:2 Hz, a 5 = 0:44 V, f 6 = 989:2 Hz, and a 6 = 0:199 V. The results of spectrum analysis using built-in FFT of LabVIEW, built-in FFT of scope, e-fft and FFT of microprocessor are shown in Figures 10(a) (c), respectively. (b) Shaker signal test. The shaker can receive the signal from the function generator and then produce the respective vibration signal to be detected by the accelerometer, where the shaker test used MINI SMARTSHAKER (model: K2004E01) shown in Figure Sine waveform (frequency: 200 Hz and ampere: 0.3 V). The spectrum analysis from the shaker and microprocessor is shown in Figure 12. The shaker receives the sine waveform (frequency: 200 Hz, ampere: 0.3 V) generated from the function generator. The results of spectrum analysis from scope using built-in FFT and from microprocessor using e-fft and FFT are shown in Figures 12(a) and (b), respectively, indicating all results are almost identical due to no leakage. However, it can be seen that the detected vibration strength is 260 mv that has a slight attenuation, where its frequency (200 Hz) has no change. 2. Sine waveform (frequency: 501 Hz and ampere: 0.3 V). The spectrum analysis from the shaker and microprocessor is shown in Figure 13. The shaker receives the sine waveform (frequency: 501 Hz and ampere: 0.3 V) generated from the function generator. The results of spectrum analysis from scope using built-in FFT and from microprocessor using e-fft and FFT are shown in Figures 13(a) and (b), respectively. Obviously, it can be seen that the result using e- FFT model can pursue a more accurate outcome than FFT model form either scope or microprocessor in the both frequency and amplitude measurement. Note that the detected

Synthetized signal analysis: (a) waveform spectrum analysis using built-in FFT in LabVIEW, (b) waveform spectrum analysis from scope using built-in FFT, and (c) spectrum analysis from NI-DAQ using e-fft and FFT. vibration strength from the shaker is 166 mv that has an evident attenuation. (c) Cutting buffeting test. In this test, the tool machine (QUASER CNC, MV184) used 6060 aluminum alloy to implement a cutting process, where sampling rate is khz, sampled points are 1024, that is, Df = 8 Hz; amplitude scale: 0.25 V = 1g after signal amplification adjustment using accelerometer amplifier circuit. Figure 14 indicates that the dominant vibration frequency and spectrum strength using e-fft is khz and 0.880g, respectively. However, the dominant vibration frequency and spectrum strength using FFT are khz and 0.788g, respectively. It is proved that that e-fft has a better solution than FFT to restore the original spectrum frequency and amplitude. Figure 11. Profile of SMARTSHAKER (K2004E01).

Spectrum analysis from shaker at 200 Hz: (a) spectrum analysis from scope using built-in FFT and (b) spectrum analysis from microprocessor using e-fft and FFT. Figure 13. Spectrum analysis from shaker at 501 Hz: (a) spectrum analysis from scope using built-in FFT and (b) spectrum analysis from microprocessor using e-fft and FFT. Conclusion Although FFT is still widely applied to signal analysis in industry, it may suffer from incorrect outcomes if the vibration frequency is non-integer due to spectrum leakage. In e-fft model, the relation between vibration frequency and dispersed leakage caused from FFT can be induced. The spectrum of individual frequency and amplitude can be thus accurately calculated. This article has reviewed and compared both e-fft and FFT models in vibration measurement. Before practical analysis, the models were calibrated with pre-known sine and triangle waveforms. The group bandwidth (t) in e-fft model is determined between 1 and 5 according to the selection rule of the e-fft to retrieve the original amplitude. Also, the spectrum frequency can be rectified by the dominant frequency (f k ) plus frequency deviation (Df k ). Consequently, the e-fft model can efficiently restore the dispersed power caused by FFT and thus achieve a correct spectrum analysis. As can be seen from experimental results, it is shown that the e-fft model is better than the usual FFT. However, the group bandwidth (t) should be appropriately selected especially in case of close harmonics.
