Application of the FSOM to Machine Vibration Monitoring

In this paper we are describing the application of the Fuzzy Self-Organizing Map (FSOM) and some feature extraction methods to a intelligent microsystem for online machine vibration monitoring. We have developed such a microsystem with some of the most advanced semiconductor and microsystem technologies. On the basis of these technologies it is possible to perform the complete condition monitoring and diagnosis stage directly in the microsystem which is applied to a observed machine.
