Patent number: 7933742Abstract: A noise detection signal detected at an evaluation point is filtered by a low pass filter, so that an evaluation waveform signal is extracted. A real signal mother wavelet of complex type is derived from the extracted evaluation waveform signal. Using this mother wavelet, an abnormal waveform signal stored in advance is processed by wavelet transformation. Then, a correlation value is calculated between the abnormal waveform signal and the mother wavelet. The correlation value is compared with a predetermined criterion, so that the presence or absence of abnormality in a sound source or vibration source corresponding to each abnormal waveform signal is determined.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2007Date of Patent: April 26, 2011Assignees: JTEKT Corporation, Zhong ZhangInventors: Hideaki Ishii, Hiroshi Uemura, Zhong Zhang
