In view of the problem that source signals cannot be effectively separated in the process of blind source separation of similar nonstationary nonlinear signals, a spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition method was proposed for bearing fault diagnosis. Spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition can separate source signals and construct Fourier basis dictionaries and nonlinear signal models. The fault components can be separated by using this method in fault diagnosis. The proper initial phase function is selected for blind source separation of signals and signal decomposition components are obtained. By simulation analysis, spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition than the fast independent component analysis method can more intuitive clearly separate the signals of admixed with large modulation components of correlation coefficient, and through the impact of component kurtosis index to judge fault, inherent modal decomposition method better prove time restore original bearing vibration signals and fault impact. Through the analysis and comparison of experimental data, the spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition method has a significant effect on the fault diagnosis and analysis of rolling bearing outer ring, inner ring, and can intuitively express the fault characteristic frequency and frequency doubling through the analysis of envelope spectrum. In processing the industrial data, the spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition method can also find the frequency characteristics of inner ring fault more clearly and accurately. Therefore, the spatiotemporal intrinsic mode decomposition method can solve the problem of blind source separation and realize fault diagnosis in rolling bearing fault field.
