Roll Eccentricity Signal Detection and Its Engineering Application Based on SFFT-IAA

Abstract

The roll eccentricity signal is a weak and complex periodic signal that is difficult to be identified. To improve the detection accuracy of the roll eccentricity signal and to compensate effectively, this study proposed a roll eccentricity signal detection method by combining the sparse fast Fourier transform (SFFT) and the iterative adaptive approach (IAA). The proposed method can rapidly determine the frequency range of the roll eccentricity signal by using the SFFT. Then, it divides the frequency range into several small frequency bands. In each small frequency band, the frequency, amplitude, and phase angle of each harmonic component of the roll eccentricity signal were estimated by using IAA. The simulation results show that the proposed method can find all frequency components, and the frequency estimation accuracy is higher than 99.88%. Finally, the engineering application of this method and the eccentricity compensation control were investigated. In engineering applications, the proposed method can reduce the thickness fluctuation of the finished strip by 89.2%, and the product quality is improved significantly. The simulation results and engineering experiments show that the proposed method has an excellent effect on detecting and compensating roll eccentricity signals.
