Abstract

Higher-order cumulants have a greater ability to mechanically reduce the impact of Gaussian noise, whether it is white or colored. As a consequence, higher-order statistical cumulants are gaining more attention in signal processing. Bispectral peaks arise due to phase coupling, and the distribution of these spectral peaks follows a special law. To analyze the distribution of these spectral peaks, this study adopted the method of harmonic decomposition. Based on Fourier transform theory, the harmonic frequencies where phase coupling occurs are calculated. By conducting a third-order cumulant analysis of the harmonics, the position of the spectral peak can be obtained. Then, using trigonometric functions, the methods of amplifying, reducing, and increasing the spectral peaks were discussed and verified through experiments. Since the collected vibration signal can be regarded as a function that satisfies the Fourier transform conditions, the above theoretical analysis can be applied to the analysis of various actual collected signals. Currently, bispectrum is generally used in actual applications to distinguish signal states by showing different peaks of the signal in different states. However, this application often encounters situations where the bispectrum in different states is difficult to distinguish. The experimental results showed that the methods of amplifying, reducing, and increasing the spectral peaks were helpful in strengthening the practical application effects of the bispectrum.
