Abstract :
The engine vibration signals characters are extracted using wavelet packet technology. A model of wavelet neural networks is constructed based on wavelet frame theory and neural networks technology. Then multiresolution analysis is used to choose and optimize the wavelet neuron. The model is validated through the testing that simulates the faults of engine valve clearance. The experimental results show that the proposed automobile engine fault diagnostic model based on wavelet neural networks can diagnose the engine fault effectively.
