It is difficult for classical stochastic resonance systems to extract weak signals under strong noise environment, therefore a novel two-dimensional exponential potential bi-stable stochastic resonance system (NTBSR) is proposed. First, the equivalent potential function, the mean first-pass time (MFPT) and the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of NTBSR are derived under the adiabatic approximation theory. At the same time, the influence of different system parameters on them is explored. Then, NTBSR, the one-dimensional bi-stable stochastic resonance system (OBSR) and the two-dimensional classical bi-stable stochastic resonance system (TCBSR) are respectively simulated numerically, based on the fourth-order Runge–Kutta algorithm. It is found that the output SNR of NTBSR is the best. Finally, the NTBSR is applied to the fault signal diagnosis of different types of bearings, and the parameters are optimized through the adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA). The test results are compared with wavelet transform method, and TCBSR. The detection results on two sets of bearing fault data show that the NTBSR system has better effects on the enhancement and detection of bearing fault signals, and it is verified that the stochastic resonance method is superior to the traditional wavelet transform method in terms of signal detection and noise utilization. This provides good theoretical support and application value for practical engineering application.
