Abstract Introduction. Safety issues of railway transport are inevitably connected with the condition of railway tracks and railway wheels. Various defects, such as irregularities of the railway track, may lead to emergencies and incidents. Therefore, it is important to measure and calculate short and impulse irregularities. A joint analysis of vibration acceleration signals is needed in order to study the types and size of railway track irregularities. Aim. Development of an algorithm for irregularity search based on accelerometer readings with the vertical measurement axis. Materials and methods. The research encompassed wavelet transformation and wavelet-based signal processing including discrete-time signal processing and continuous wavelet processing. In addition, time-frequency analysis based on Fourier transform and continuous wavelet scalogram was used. These methods provide for time-frequency localization for irregularity detection and measurement. Results. Algorithms for vibrational signal processing using the continuous and discrete-time wavelet transform are proposed. The results show that the discrete wavelet transform is effective for multiresolution and multiband analysis, and continuous wavelet transform and wavelet scalogram allows extraction of irregularities and determination of their parameters. The relative error for irregularity depth was improved by 18 %, and the absolute error for irregularity length determinations was reduced by 7 times. Conclusion. Application of the discrete Fourier transform and Fourier spectrogram provides for fine resolution in the frequency domain. However, separation of signal components in the time-frequency domain is impeded. The continuous-time wavelet transform ensures sufficient resolution in the low-frequency domain for component localization and visualization of irregularities.
