Abstract

A method for detecting a damaged-bearing in an engine using a vibration signal may include: separating, by a controller, a vibration signal of the engine detected by a vibration detecting device installed on one side of the engine of a vehicle into a vibration signal caused by combustion knocking and a vibration signal generated in a bearing, extracting a signal in a predetermined natural frequency band from the vibration signal generated in the bearing using a band-pass filter, and processing the extracted signal to a quantified bearing signal using the controller, and comparing the quantified bearing signal with a preset damaged-bearing criterion using the controller to determine whether the quantified bearing signal is equal to or higher than the preset damaged-bearing criterion to determine a damage to the bearing.
