| Summary: | In deformation monitoring, complex environments, such as seismic excitation, often lead to noise during signal acquisition and transmission processing. This study integrates sequential variational mode decomposition (SVMD), a dual-parameter (DP) model, and an improved wavelet threshold function (IWT), presenting a denoising method termed SVMD-DP-IWT. Initially, SVMD decomposes the signal to obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Subsequently, the DP parameters are determined using fuzzy entropy. Finally, the noisy IMFs denoised by IWT and the signal IMFs are used for signal reconstruction. Both simulated and engineering measurements validate the performance of the proposed method in mitigating noise. In simulation experiments, compared to wavelet soft-threshold function (WST) with the sqtwolog threshold, the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of SVMD-Dual-CC-WST (sqtwolog threshold), SVMD-DP-IWT (sqtwolog threshold), and SVMD-DP-IWT (minimaxi threshold) improved by 51.44%, 52.13%, and 52.49%, respectively. Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) vibration monitoring was conducted outdoors, and the accelerometer vibration monitoring experiment was performed on a pseudo-classical building in a multi-functional shaking table laboratory. GNSS displacement data and acceleration data were collected, and analyses of the acceleration signal characteristics were performed. SVMD-DP-IWT (sqtwolog) and SVMD-DP-IWT (minimaxi) effectively retain key vibration signal features during the denoising process. The proposed method significantly preserves vibration features during noise reduction of an ancient building in deformation monitoring, which is crucial for damage assessment. |
