TLDR
A discrete-time wavelet transform for which the Q-factor is easily specified and the transform can be tuned according to the oscillatory behavior of the signal to which it is applied, based on a real-valued scaling factor.
Abstract
This paper describes a discrete-time wavelet transform for which the Q-factor is easily specified. Hence, the transform can be tuned according to the oscillatory behavior of the signal to which it is applied. The transform is based on a real-valued scaling factor (dilation-factor) and is implemented using a perfect reconstruction over-sampled filter bank with real-valued sampling factors. Two forms of the transform are presented. The first form is defined for discrete-time signals defined on all of Z. The second form is defined for discrete-time signals of finite-length and can be implemented efficiently with FFTs. The transform is parameterized by its Q-factor and its oversampling rate (redundancy), with modest oversampling rates (e.g., three to four times overcomplete) being sufficient for the analysis/synthesis functions to be well localized.

Intelligent bearing fault signature extraction via iterative oscillatory behavior based signal decomposition (IOBSD)

TL;DR: The main features of the proposed OBSD method include: it can remove in-band interference and noise that cannot be removed by the widely used frequency-based approaches, as it is frequency-independent in nature, it can extract fault signatures from heavily interference-obscured signals without filtering the signals, and it does not require the prior information of the signals.

A method for tachometer-free and resampling-free bearing fault diagnostics under time-varying speed conditions

TL;DR: A new tachometer-free and resampling-free method is proposed for bearing fault diagnosis under time-varying speed conditions which consists of three main steps: bearing fault signature extraction via Oscillatory Behavior-based Signal Decomposition (OBSD) to suppress the influence of random noise and interferences, and automatic bearing fault identification based on the average curve-to-curve ratios of the searched IFCF and ISRF.

Gear Fault Diagnosis Based on Dual Parameter Optimized Resonance-Based Sparse Signal Decomposition of Motor Current

TL;DR: In this article, the dual parameters optimized resonance-based sparse signal decomposition (RSSD) method was proposed to extract fault features from these interferences, which can decompose a complex signal into a high- and low-resonance component with two sets of overcomplete wavelet bases.
