There are a lot of time-varying drive sources in high speed train. The traditional time-frequency analysis methods could analysis the magnitude and the spectrum characteristics of the compound vibration, but couldn’t separate the source signals to know their properties and failure distribution. The vibration signal of the high speed train is nonstationary random signal modulated by velocity, and the number of sources as well as the length of signals are time-varying, the traditional blind source separation methods couldn’t deal with the difficult problem. A new blind source separation algorithm called globally optimal signal-to-noise ratio algorithm based on the adaptive filtering theory is proposed. The separability of the proposed method is deduced. The simulation and test analysis results show that the proposed method is effective, and obtains more satisfactory separation quality than the classical blind source separation methods based on nonlinearity function and high-order cumulant in nonstationary signal analysis of high speed train.
