The supervision task of industrial systems is vital, and the prediction of damage avoids many problems. If any system defects are not detected in the early stage, this system will continue to degrade, which may cause serious economic loss. In industrial systems, the defects change the behaviour and characteristics of the vibration signal. This change is the signature of the presence of the defect. The challenge is the early detection of this signature. The difficulty of the vibration signal is that the signal is very noisy, non-stationary and non-linear. In this study, a new method for the early defect detection of a gear system is proposed. This approach is based on vibration analysis by finding the defect’s signature in the vibration signal. This approach has used the autocorrelation of Morlet wavelet transforms (AMWT). Firstly, simulation validation is introduced. The validation of the approach on a real system is given in the second validation part.
