An Accurate Prediction Algorithm of RUL for Bearings: Time-Frequency Analysis Based on MRCNN

Remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of mechanical components is of high research value in the field of prognostics and health management (PHM). However, RUL prediction problems are completely challenging due to the complicacy of bearings’ operating environment. In this paper, we transform the vibration acceleration signal collected by sensors into a time-frequency domain matrix through continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and then extract the features of the time-frequency domain matrix through the proposed multiscale residual convolutional neural network (MRCNN), which enables the model to extract more local and global features while constructing more accurate health indicators (HI). In order to highlight the degradation trend of mechanical components, the obtained health indicators are smoothed by exponential moving average (EMA). Finally, linear regression is exploited to predict the RUL of the bearing. Performance evaluations based on the public dataset PRONOSTIA demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm, which is superior to existing data-driven algorithms in terms of prediction accuracy.
