Vold-Kalman order tracking filter is an effective technique for dealing with non-stationary vibrations which offshore wind turbines often encounter. It has a unique capability to extract and track the time waveforms of harmonics in short transients without phase bias, and this capability is beneficial to the condition monitoring of offshore wind turbines. In general, the accuracy of the tracking results of the Vold-Kalman filer for condition monitoring is heavily dependent on the selection of filter bandwidth. A fixed filter bandwidth becomes problematic when processing different types of signals under varying operating conditions. Significant errors may arise in the tracking, rendering the condition monitoring of offshore wind turbines unreliable. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel scheme for Vold-Kalman filter bandwidth selection to guarantee the consistency and accuracy of the offshore wind turbine condition monitoring process, ensuring reliable fault diagnosis. A numerical model is used to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed bandwidth selection scheme first. Then the proposed scheme is further validated through the offshore wind turbine planetary gearbox datasets, together with the demonstration of the fault diagnosis capability of the filtered results.
