To solve the problem that the existing planetary gear train fault diagnosis methods have, namely their low diagnostic accuracy under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a fault diagnosis method based on a double channel-deep residual shrinkage network (DC-DRSN) is proposed. The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) is used to convert the original vibration signal into a two-dimensional time-frequency graph, which effectively enhances the ability to express information. A DC-DRSN model is constructed, and the optimal number of residual shrinkage modules is determined by combining the diagnostic characteristics with different noises, which effectively improves the accuracy and anti-noise ability of fault diagnosis. The results of bearing and planetary gear train crack fault diagnosis show that the diagnosis method based on DC-DRSN has higher diagnostic accuracy while realizing fault diagnosis, which is better than other deep learning diagnosis methods. At the same time, the method can adapt to fault diagnosis in different noise environments, and has good expression ability and generalization ability.
