Abstract: Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is a widely used adaptive signal processing method, which has shown some shortcomings in engineering practice, such as sifting stop criteria of intrinsic mode function (IMF), mode mixing and end effect. In this paper, an improved sifting stop criterion based on the valid data segment is proposed, and is compared with the traditional one. Results show that the new sifting stop criterion avoids the influence of end effects and improves the correctness of the EMD. In addition, a novel AEMD method combining the analysis mode decomposition (AMD) and EMD is developed to solve the mode-mixing problem, in which EMD is firstly applied to dispose the original signal, and then AMD is used to decompose these mixed modes. Then, these decomposed modes are reconstituted according to a certain principle. These reconstituted components showed mode mixing phenomena alleviated. Model comparison was conducted between the proposed method with the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), which is the mainstream method improved based on EMD. Results indicated that the AEMD and EEMD can effectively restrain the mode mixing, but the AEMD has a shorter execution time than that of EEMD.
