In the rolling bearing fault diagnosis, the vibration signal of single sensor is usually
nonstationary and noisy, which contains very little useful information, and impacts the
accuracy of fault diagnosis. In order to solve the problem, this paper presents a novel fault
diagnosis method using multivibration signals and deep belief network (DBN). By utilizing

In the rolling bearing fault diagnosis, the vibration signal of single sensor is usually nonstationary and noisy, which contains very little useful information, and impacts the accuracy of fault diagnosis. In order to solve the problem, this paper presents a novel fault diagnosis method using multivibration signals and deep belief network (DBN). By utilizing the DBN’s learning ability, the proposed method can adaptively fuse multifeature data and identify various bearing faults. Firstly, multiple vibration signals are acquainted from various fault bearings. Secondly, some time‐domain characteristics are extracted from original signals of each individual sensor. Finally, the features data of all sensors are put into the DBN and generate an appropriate classifier to complete fault diagnosis. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of multivibration signals, experiments are carried out on the individual sensor with the same conditions and procedure. At the same time, the method is compared with SVM, KNN, and BPNN methods. The results show that the DBN‐based method is able to not only adaptively fuse multisensor data, but also obtain higher identification accuracy than other methods.
