Research on Signal Denoising Method of Thin-Film Displacement Sensor for the Aviation Actuator Shaft
摘要
The rapid advancement of aerospace technology has imposed stringent requirements on displacement resolution accuracy for flight control actuator axes. To address signal quality degradation caused by noise interference in actuator-axis displacement sensors, this study proposes a hybrid denoising method integrating improved Wavelet Threshold Denoising (WTD) with Savitzky-Golay (SG) smoothing filters. The methodology employs a three-stage decomposition strategy: (1) Multi-scale decomposition of raw displacement signals through wavelet transform to extract high-frequency detail coefficients and low-frequency approximation coefficients; (2) Implementation of SG filtering for local smoothing of high-frequency coefficients, coupled with a piecewise adaptive threshold function designed to mitigate oscillation artifacts and amplitude deviations inherent in conventional hard/soft thresholding approaches; (3) Signal reconstruction via inverse wavelet transform using optimized coefficients to balance noise suppression and feature preservation. Experimental results demonstrate that the WTD-SG method achieves a remarkable SNR enhancement from 1.7626 to 14.0646 dB, along with a 98.5% reduction in RMSE (0.5931 → 0.0205). Compared with state-of-art denoising methods, the proposed methodology achieves superior noise suppression while preserving essential displacement characteristics in actuator shaft signals.
