Frequency Bands and Spectral Metrics of Gear Train
For this example, consider a simple gear set with an 8-toothed pinion on the input shaft meshing with a 42-toothed spur gear on the output shaft. Assume that the input shaft is driven at 20 Hz. The data set motorSignal.mat
contains vibration data for the gear mesh sampled at 1500 Hz.
First, construct the gear mesh frequency bands using the physical characteristics of the gear set. Construct the frequency bands with the first 3 sidebands.

FB
is a 15x2 array which includes the primary frequencies and their sidebands.
Load the vibration data and compute PSD and frequency grid using pspectrum
. Use a frequency resolution of 0.5.
load('motorSignal.mat','C'); fs = 1500; [psd,freqGrid] = pspectrum(C,fs,'FrequencyResolution',0.5);
Now, use the frequency bands and PSD data to compute the spectral metrics.
spectralMetrics = faultBandMetrics(psd,freqGrid,FB)

Visualize Frequency Bands for Pinion and Gear Set
For this example, consider a simple pinion and gear set with an input shaft speed of 1800 rpm. Considering that the pinion on the input shaft has 6 teeth and the gear on the output shaft has 8 teeth, visualize the frequency bands for the gear mesh.
FR = 1800; Ni = 6; No = 8; gearMeshFaultBands(FR,Ni,No)
From the plot, observe the following:
Output shaft defect frequency,
1Fo
at 1350 HzInput shaft defect frequency,
1Fi
at 1800 HzAssembly phase defect frequency,
1Fa
at 5400 HzGear mesh defect frequency,
1Fm
at 10800 Hz
Input Arguments
FR
— Rotational speed of the input gear
positive scalar
Rotational speed of the input gear, specified as a positive scalar.
FR
is the fundamental frequency around which
gearMeshFaultBands
generates the fault frequency bands. Specify
FR
either in Hertz or revolutions per minute.
Ni
— Number of teeth on the input gear
positive integer
Number of teeth on the input gear, specified as a positive integer.
No
— Number of teeth on the output gear
positive integer
Number of teeth on the output gear, specified as a positive integer.
Name-Value Arguments
Specify optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where Name
is
the argument name and Value
is the corresponding value.
Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the
pairs does not matter.
Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose
Name
in quotes.
Example: ...,'Harmonics',[1,3,5]
Harmonics
— Harmonics of the fundamental frequency to be included
1
(default) | vector of positive integers
Harmonics of the fundamental frequency to be included, specified as the
comma-separated pair consisting of 'Harmonics
' and a vector of
positive integers. The default value is 1. Specify 'Harmonics
' when
you want to construct the frequency bands with more harmonics of the fundamental
frequency.
Sidebands
— Sidebands around the fundamental frequency and its harmonics to be included
0
(default) | vector of nonnegative integers
Sidebands around the fundamental frequency and its harmonics to be included, specified
as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Sidebands
' and a vector of
nonnegative integers. The default value is 0. Specify 'Sidebands
'
when you want to construct the frequency bands with sidebands around the fundamental
frequency and its harmonics.
Width
— Width of the frequency bands centered at the nominal fault frequencies
10
percent of the fundamental frequency (default) | positive scalar
Width of the frequency bands centered at the nominal fault frequencies, specified
as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Width
' and a positive
scalar. The default value is 10 percent of the fundamental frequency. Avoid specifying
'Width
' with a large value so that the fault bands do not
overlap.
Domain
— Units of the fault band frequencies
'frequency'
(default) | 'order'
Folding
— Logical value specifying whether negative nominal fault frequencies have to be folded about the frequency origin
false
(default) | true
Logical value specifying whether negative nominal fault frequencies have to be folded about the frequency origin, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'Folding
' and either true
or false
. If you set 'Folding
' to true
, then faultBands
folds the negative nominal fault frequencies about the frequency origin by taking their absolute values such that the folded fault bands always fall in the positive frequency intervals. The folded fault bands are computed as , where W
is the 'Width
' name-value pair and F
is one of the nominal fault frequencies.
Output Arguments
FB
— Fault frequency bands
Nx2
array
Fault frequency bands, returned as an Nx2
array, where
N
is the number of fault frequencies. FB
is
returned in the same units as FR
, in either Hertz or orders. Use
the generated fault frequency bands to extract spectral metrics using faultBandMetrics
. The generated fault bands, , are centered at the characteristic defect frequencies and their
harmonics and sidebands for:
Input shaft defect frequency,
Fi
Output shaft defect frequency,
Fo
Gear mesh defect frequency,
Fm
Assembly phase pass defect frequency,
Fa
When you specify the sidebands, gearMeshFaultBands
computes the
sidebands with respect to the input and output shaft defect frequencies:
Fault frequency bands for input gear defects with its harmonics and the first sideband at
Fi
Fault frequency bands for output gear defects with its harmonics and the first sideband at
Fo
gearMeshFaultBands
truncates negative fault frequency bands
automatically and generates a warning message.
The value W
is the width of the frequency bands, which you can
specify using the 'Width
' name-value pair.
