Cepstrum Analysis

Some machines, such as gear boxes, produce very complicated spectrum signatures. The cepstrum analysis offers a way to simplify the analysis, of these signals.

When trying to diagnose a vibration signal in order to identify possible faults in the machine, the following are investigated:

  • harmonic relations,
  • presence of sidebands,
  • the relation of energy in different side band and harmonic families.

The cepstrum analysis

  • simplifies the analysis of a complicated spectrum, and
  • is independent of the signal path.
Cepstrum analysis makes it easier to see where the energy is located when you have complicated side band families.

Cepstrum Analysis is a tool for making gear box analysis more simple.
