20.1 Introduction
In the field of Operating Modal Analysis (OMA) applied on structures like helicopters or large structures in energy production, vibration signals are composed with random sources and periodic signals due to rotating machines which can not be shut down. It is a well-known problem that these harmonic components introduce mistakes in experimental modes extraction by OMA algorithms. The present paper intended to solve this problem by tracking and removing modulated sinusoidal signals in noisy records. The previous work has focused on the detection of sinusoidal components [1]. The present work aims to remove these sinusoidal components by using Series of Extended Kalman Filter [2].
In the field of vibrations, several works have already used Kalman filters for identification, detection, health monitoring or tracking order. In identification and detection processes, Kalman Filters are performed for the localization of cracks on rotating machines [3], for stiffness identification [4] or vibration force estimation [5, 6]. Some health monitoring methods for structures and rotating machines are based on Kalman Filters with varying Auto Regressive identification parameters [7–11]. Kalman Filters are also used in active vibration control [12–15] with real-time algorithms and non-stationary signals on smart structures. Other works use Kalman filters to improve time-frequency analysis and order tracking techniques [16–20]. Order Tracking techniques for rotating machines are often based on Vold-Kalman Filter [21, 22]. Recent techniques aim to improve the Vold Kalman Filtering for resampling techniques, high frequency resolution in Fourier analysis and crossing orders detection [23–30]. Most of these works are based on shaft speed information, as an instantaneous frequency is often measured by tachometers.
The whole process of measurement from an excitation source to measured signals can be depicted in a diagram (see Fig. 20.1). In the rest of this paper, the structure is supposed to have a linear dynamic behavior. Then in a limited bandwidth, the relation between inputs and outputs can be fully captured by its transfer function H(s), defined in the Laplace domain.
This structure is supposed to be excited by two kinds of input. The first one is created by a random source which delivers a white noise. Thus it is a stochastic input named E s (s). The second one is created by an unbalanced rotating machine. Contrary to the first input, it delivers a signal whose amplitude and frequency are slowly modulated. As the signal slowly changes over time, it has a phase and is deterministic. It is named E d (s), for deterministic input. Both inputs are not measured.
For a linear structure, the response Y (s) of the structure can be separated into its stochastic and deterministic parts:
where Y s (s) = H(s)E s (s) is the response due to the stochastic input E s (s) and Y d (s) = H(s)E d (s) is the response due to the deterministic input E d (s).
As errors are unavoidable in measurements, they have to be taken into account too. As for inputs, two kinds of observation noise can distort signals. The first one is a random noise N s (s) which come from electronic flaws. Its probability law is usually supposed to be Gaussian p(t) = N(0, W) and is characterized in the frequency domain by a flat density of spectral amplitudes, i.e. its energy is uniformly distributed among frequencies.
The second possible noise often results of an electrical field which produces a periodic component at a stable frequency, but with modulated amplitude. Unfortunately this electrical field is also caught by sensors. For instance, in Europe the spurious harmonic components at n ∗ 50 Hz are well known by experimental engineers. This added noise N d (f) is deterministic and is noticeable in signals as narrow components around its fundamental frequency and its harmonics. From a structural point of view, they look like spurious low-damped modes. Unfortunately, this noise cannot be accurately predicted because it highly depends on each experiment and on each sensor technology. This kind of noise is seldom taken into account, although it can seriously alter signals if structural responses are weak.
In conclusion, the observed signals result in the sum of these noises added to structural responses:
that can be also separated into its stochastic and deterministic parts:
As a rule, OMA are designed for only stochastic input and noise measurement. It is a strong assumption for these algorithms and is seldom respected. As a result, deterministic components in responses can strongly false results given by OMA algorithms.
The purpose of the proposed method is to identify the deterministic part Y d (t) and to substract it from Y m (t). It will give an approximation of the stochastic response which would be obtained if E d and N d were missing. Then this approximation could be possibly used for OMA identification techniques, although here the focus will be made on the filtering process. Here the term filtering means that the deterministic component of Y d (t) is going to be filtered from the available signals Y m (t), without previous knowledge of the structure of Y d (t).
In the present study, the detection and the tracking of sinusoidal components are performed without the knowledge of frequencies of periodic signal or of a transfer function H(s). Studied signals are assumed to be composed of random noise and modulated sinusoidal components. Indeed, measured signals on rotating engines in operational conditions are:
The first term b(t) is assumed to be mainly composed with the structural response under random excitation. The second terms p k (t) come from engines in operation and from spurious harmonic components of the electric power supply. The signals p k (t) are deterministic and assumed to be both amplitude and frequency modulated. The kth pseudo periodic source is assumed to be composed of N modulated sines:
where:
-
a i, k (t) the amplitude for the kth source and the ith sinusoid
-
f 0, k the central fundamental frequency of the kth source
-
Δf k the frequency deviation of the kth source
-
m k the reduced frequency modulation of the kth source with MAX{m k } ≤ 1
-
φ i, k the phase of the kth source and the ith sinusoid
In the proposed technique, the frequency modulation is assumed to occur slowly in a short range of variation.
Two signals are sketched in the time domain in Fig. 20.2: signal A is a frequency and amplitude modulated sinusoid (Fig. 20.2 upper left) and signal B is a narrow bandwidth random noise (Fig. 20.2 lower left). Both signals share the same spectrum magnitude (Fig. 20.2 right), although they have different phase spectras. Thus, for a given PSD or spectrum magnitude where phase information is lost, the original temporal signal can not be identified: it could be either a modulated sinusoid (deterministic) or a random noise (stochastic).
As a result, in the case of structural behavior identification, dynamic responses based on “output only” techniques have to be free of such modulated sinusoidal signals. Thus, the purpose is to remove sinusoidal components, such as unbalanced rotating machines speed or electrical current components, from the original signal. The method is built upon two main steps.
First, all sinusoidal components are detected with an Optimized Spectral Kurtosis (OSK) [1]. Thus, the number of sinusoidal components is identified by the OSK. This process is described in Sect. 20.2.
Secondly, an EKF is built per detected central frequency. Then a set of EKFs is obtained and called a Series of Extended Kalman Filters (SEKF). Its size is defined by the number of identified frequencies. State variables and variances in the EKF are firstly identified with OSK data in order to initialize the SEKF process. This step is developed in Sect. 20.4.1.
Finally, each detected periodic signal is tracked and suppressed from the original signal with the help of a SEKF. These steps are developed in Sect. 20.3 from a theoretical point of view, and numerical applications are exposed in Sect. 20.4.
20.2 Detection of Modulated Sinusoidal Components
20.2.1 Definition of the Optimized Spectral Kurtosis Method
The detection of sinusoidal components is based on combining two kinds of information: statistical and spectral as developed in a previous work [1]. The OSK consists in establishing a spectral description of Kurtosis.
First, the signal is filtered with a narrow Pass Band Filter (PBF) centered on the studied frequency.
Secondly, the Kurtosis of the filtered signal is computed and the numerical result defines the assumed nature of the signal (included in the spectral bandwidth). In the ith Pass Band, the ith Kurtosis is defined by:
where Xf i is the ith filtered signal obtained from the ith PBF, μ = E[X], σ 2 = E(X − μ)2 and E(X) is the statistical expectation of X.
The complete spectral description of Kurtosis is obtained by translating the PBF along the entire frequency bandwidth. In order to obtain an accurate spectral resolution, the used PBF is a sixth order Cauer Filter [31] for Real Time Computation but could also be performed with an ideal PBF for Post-Processing Computation. In the case of a real time computation, statistical expectations are computed with the following linear recursive technique:
where y k is the new data (realization of process Y ), E k − 1[Y ] the old expectation of Y and E k the new expectation of Y.
20.2.2 Testing of the OSK on an Experimental Bench
In order to test the OSK and SEKF in a real experiment, a test bench is set up (Fig. 20.3). The experiment is composed of two masses insulated with flexible blades. The mechanical system can be described as a two DOF system in the bandwidth 0–100 Hz. The system natural frequencies are 9.7 and 36.7 Hz. The structure is simultaneously excited with a white noise by the electrodynamic shaker and an amplitude and frequency modulated signal thanks to an unbalanced rotating machine closed to 1,320 rpm (Fig. 20.3).
Figure 20.4 shows PSD and the OSK applied on a 131 s record of the accelerometer of the first floor with 262,144 (218) samples. The sampling frequency is 2,000 Hz, the filter bandwidth is around 0.15 Hz, detection is defined for a Spectral Kurtosis lower than two. Detected sinusoidal components are highlighted with “o” markers on both graphs when the OSK is below two [1].
The results shown in Fig. 20.4 highlight expected observations. Frequency fb = 22 Hz is well detected as a sinusoidal component and not as a structural response. The corresponding OSK at 22 Hz is lower than two. Duly, both structural eigen modes (9.7 and 36.7 Hz) are not identified as sinusoidal components. Nevertheless, other components, not initially foreseen, are identified as sinusoidal components: the electric network frequency fr = 50 Hz, a low frequency around 5 Hz and two frequencies: fr − fb = 28 Hz and fr + fb = 72 Hz.
These components are very small but are parts of the signal. The first one is due to the electric power frequency used for the electric motor. The last two are due to the magnitude modulation between the rotation frequency of the engine and its electric power frequency. These components are 100 to 100,000 times smaller than the main excitation at fb = 22 Hz.
Measurements have been realized with a piezoelectric accelerometer. Due to this technology, low frequencies are not studied in the present work (even if a 5 Hz component is detected).
The next step consists in removing these components from the original signal.
20.3 Tracking of Modulated Sinusoidal Components
The filtering of modulated sinusoidal components into a composite signal cannot be carried out by classical spectral analysis methods. ARMA filters [31] are not able to separate sinusoidal components and random noise into a same frequency bandwidth. Liftering techniques in cepstral analysis [32] and curve smoothing introduce important distortions in phase spectrum. Instantaneous phases of modulated signals should be accurately determined in order to be tracked. The Extended Kalman Filter has been retained for this purpose.
20.3.1 Discrete State Space Formulation of an Amplitude and Frequency Modulated Sinusoid
The goal of this paragraph is to derive a state space formulation which is relevant on a short time scale.
A sinusoid whose amplitude and frequency are modulated over time can be described in the complex domain as an analytic signal:
where a(t) is the instantaneous complex amplitude and Φ(t) is the instantaneous phase. The discrete form of x(t) at the time step tn = nΔt is xn = x(nΔt). The complex variable x n can be divided into its real and imaginary parts x n = x 1, n + jx 2, n . A sinusoid that slightly varies over time can be approximated by:
where f n is the instantaneous frequency.
As the parameters f n and a n of the sinusoid slightly vary over time, they are almost equal between two consecutive time steps. Then a transition formulation can be given from x n to x n + 1:
This approximation is only true if modulations of a n and f n are slower that the period of the sinusoid. This constraint is assumed to be verified. Then a linear transition is obtained between the imaginary part x 2, . and real part x 1, . of x n and x n + 1:
or written in a matrix form
The instantaneous amplitude a n is given by
As a n and f n should be allowed to vary over time, it is proposed here to use the following non linear state space formulation:
where X n = (x 1, n x 2, n x 3, n )T and W n , the process noise. A state variable x 3, n = 2πf n Δt was added to track the evolution of the instantaneous frequency f n . The transition between two time steps is composed by a sum of two parts: the stationary part and the evolutionary part.
The stationary part links two successive points of a stationary sinusoid by Φ(.). Then Φ(.) is assumed as the non-linear transition function and is given by Φ(X n ) = F n X n :
The two first components are related to the complex amplitude and are obtained by the previous linear relation. The third component x 3, n + 1 = x 3, n constrains the frequency not to change strongly between two time steps.
Up to now, the non-stationary behavior of the sinusoid was not modeled because it is not possible to express an exact equation for this evolution. We suppose that W n is a random variable whose probability law is Gaussian: W n = N(0, Q), where Q is its variance matrix. Then the variations of amplitude and frequency are allowed by random values of W n .
In a first glance, it could seem strange to choose a random variable for an effect which is generally deterministic. For instance, the variation of frequency excitation of an engine is mainly deterministic. Anyway, this state space does not need to represent accurately the evolution of a sinusoid on a long period, but only step by step. Then on a short time scale, a random evolution of a n and f n is enough to model a non-stationary sinusoid.
For a signal composed of M modulated sinusoidal components, the size of the state function is 3M.
This state space formulation is non linear: the transition function Φ(X n ) is varying over time and depends on the frequency modulation.
In reality, only the real part x 1, n of the analytic signal x n can be observed. Unlike the transition phase, the observation phase is completely linear
for one sinusoid and slightly more complex for M sinusoids
where V n is a noise observation random process.
Finally, a nonlinear discrete state space model has been derived to model the transition and observation of sinusoid components mixed with random processes
where Φ(.) is the nonlinear transition function given by Φ(X n ) = F(X n )X n and H(.) is the observation matrix given by:
20.3.2 Application to the Extended Kalman Filter
Kalman filtering refers to a family of algorithms that track the temporal evolution of a dynamic model based on noised measurements:
described here in the discrete time domain. An efficient solution in terms of means and covariances can be derived when f(. ) and h(. ) are linear. Indeed it estimates the state probability distribution by its two first moments. Unfortunately, they are no longer sufficient to characterize the distribution in the nonlinear case. Then some approximations have to be done in order to find a practical solution.
The extended Kalman filtering is an extension of the classical Kalman filtering to problems with state dynamics governed by nonlinear state transformations. Although it is not required here, it should be noticed that it can also handle a nonlinear transformation from state variables to measurement variables. It generally exhibits a good robustness because it uses linear approximation over small ranges of state space. Without any input control, the state model is defined by the first equation in system (20.22) where W n is the process noise assumed to be Gaussian with zero mean with a variance matrix Q. The observation model is described by the second equation in system (20.22) where HX n + 1 is the observation function and V n + 1 the observation noise assumed to be Gaussian and zero mean with a variance R. State and observation noises are assumed to be uncorrelated. The Extended Kalman Filter [2] is defined using predict and update phases. The predict phase gives an a priori estimate of the state and covariance based on previous time step t n :
And the update phase corrects the deviation of these estimations based on new observation at time step t n + 1:
As the transition function Φ is non-linear but differentiable, it is well locally approximated thanks to its
In the case of M modulated components, the first order derivative is required:
and the approximation becomes a banded block matrix:
where an elementary block is given by
This state matrix is composed of 3M equations which could be described as M independent systems of 3 equations. The complete EKF can be expanded in a series of M elementary EKM which could be computed in a same step or in M independent steps. This point of view allows parallel computation of all EKM cells. The complete process is described in the block diagram in next section, Fig. 20.5.
20.4 OSK and SEKF in Operation
In this section, the aim is to propose a method for the filtering process of experimental signals as described in the block diagram (Fig. 20.5).
The filtering process consists in removing detected and tracked sinusoidal components. The efficiency of the method is due to the fact that the OSK allows an accurate initialization of the SEKF. The combination of OSK and SEKF techniques could be performed into two different ways for real time computation or for post-processing computation. These two ways are illustrated in Fig. 20.6.
In order to test the method, the previous Series of EKF have been applied on signals obtained with the test bench described in Sects. 20.2.1 and 20.2.2. Previous results obtained in Sect. 20.2.3 have highlighted 4 modulated components. The tracking of two of them is presented in this section. The first frequency (22 Hz) corresponds to the rotation of the engine and is amplitude and frequency modulated. The second frequency corresponds to the electric power frequency (50 Hz) and is only amplitude modulated.
20.4.1 Initializing the Series of Extended Kalman Filters
An important step for EKF is the estimation of initial parameters conditions. The first unknown parameter is the suitable size of the SEKF. In a second step, for each EKF, several parameters and their variances have to be estimated. The efficiency of the filtering process strongly depends on the quality of estimated initial parameters.
For each EKF, the initial values of nine parameters have to be set:
-
-
Three parameters used for the sinusoidal component modeling,
-
-
Three parameters variances (one per parameter),
-
-
Three process noise variances (one per parameter).
The observation noise variance is defined for the complete SEKF.
For the proposed filtering method based on a SEKF composed of M EKF, 9M + 2 initial conditions have to be estimated. The very first parameter is the number M of EKF. This parameter is defined by the OSK and equal to the number of narrow bandwidths in which detection occurs. The second one is the observation noise variance. The three parameters used to define each sinusoidal component depends on the amplitude, the frequency and the phase of this component.
The estimated amplitude \(\tilde{A}_{j}\) of the jth detected component is determined from the DSP \(\mathop{{\gamma _{k}} }^{\circ }\) or the FFT \(\mathop{{s_{k}} }^{\circ }\) results:
These two estimators overestimate the actual value of A. The higher the frequency is modulated, the larger the overestimation.
The estimated frequency \(\tilde{f}_{j}\) is determined from the OSK and equal to the center frequency f k of the narrow bandwidth Δf j in which the detection occurs.
The phase is not estimated and always set in the present method to 0. This lack of estimation is quickly vanished by the specific efficiency of the Kalman Method for this kind of parameter [17].
The jth sinusoidal component modeling is also estimated:
Due to the statistical properties of sinus functions, the estimated variances \(\tilde{\sigma }_{1+3(j-1)}^{2},\tilde{\sigma }_{2+3(j-1)}^{2}\) of the first two parameters are:
These estimators underestimate actual variances. The larger the amplitude modulation, the bigger the variance underestimation. For robustness reasons in numerical applications, these parameters are chosen four times bigger.
The estimation of the third variance \(\tilde{\sigma }_{1+3(j-1)}^{2}\) is based on the bandwidth Δf j in which the detection j occurs:
The two first process noise variances Q 1 + 3(j − 1) and Q 2 + 3(j − 1) tend to zero since the modeling of amplitude modulated component is linear. The third process noise variance deals with the frequency modulation and depends on the “velocity” of the frequency modulation. The chosen estimation is:
This approximation can be seen as a linear frequency evolution along Δf j during the observation time T.
The observation noise variance R is simply chosen equal to the observed signal variance. This approximation is relevant as long as the studied signal is mainly stochastic, i.e. the energy of sinusoid components is weak compared to the total energy of the signal.
20.4.2 Numerical Results and Filtering Efficiency
The SEKF was performed on the previous experiment with two tracked sinusoids previously detected by the OSK. The first component is around 22 Hz and the second around 50 Hz. For each component, the amplitude modulation is determined with the instantaneous amplitude:
This amplitude could also be obtained by the complex analytic signal composed of the observed signal (real part) and its Hilbert transform (imaginary part).
The frequency modulation is determined by the instantaneous frequency:
The SEKF provides an analytic signal {x 1, n , x 2, n } per sinusoid from the original signal. Thus one tracked signal is obtained per sinusoid. Spectral amplitudes of these tracked signals show the main components at 22 and 50 Hz and lateral modulated bands (Fig. 20.7).
The first tracked signal concerns the effect of engine rotation. It is characterized by its frequency and amplitude modulations. As it can be observed on the Fig. 20.8, its instantaneous frequency fluctuates between 21.8 and 22 Hz.
The second tracked signal is due to the electrical network and is only amplitude-modulated. This property could have been foreseen since the 50 Hz due to the network is absolutely stable in frequency.
The very last step, the effective filtering process, is simply realized in removing the tracked signals from the initial signal in the time domain. Figure 20.9 shows spectral amplitudes before and after the filtering process and for two tracked components (22 and 50 Hz). Although the filtering process removes the 50 Hz component with efficiency, it does not show the same behaviour on the 22 Hz component. This lower efficiency could be explained by the frequency evolution of 22 Hz which makes the tracking harder. However, this component is twenty times lower after the filtering process, which is still a significant improvement.
20.5 Conclusion
An important difficulty in the application of Kalman filters is the initialization of state variables and variances. The most important rule of the OSK is to initialize the computation of SEKF. The combination of the Optimized Spectral Kurtosis and Series of Extended Kalman Filters allows a robust computational technique in tracking sinusoidal components. The filtering process can be performed during or after the real time data acquisition. The complete signal filtering can be performed automatically, even if the size of the SEKF is defined by the OSK. Inside the limits of our numerical and experimental tests, the combination of OSK and SEKF allows a robust and efficient way for removing modulated sinusoidal components in signals. The tested method is limited by the frequency modulation rate. Those limits are a new challenge for our work in progress, especially for non smooth non linear systems.
