Many techniques for bearing fault detection have been proposed.

In the approach using EMD method, the EMD algorithm is used to decompose the vibration data into components with a well-defined instantaneous frequency called intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then a spectral analysis is used for selected IMFs to indicate the appearance of nominal bearing defect frequencies (nominal frequencies), which are caused by bearing faults.
