description Clarifying the noise source and the contribution of each path is essential for the system’s noise control. The auxiliary converter cabinet, which is a crucial component of rail transportation, has numerous intricate noise sources. The contribution of each path point must be inverted-solved using known transfer functions and target point test values when identifying noise sources. This article suggests a method for diagnosing noise using transfer path analysis and neural networks (TPA-NN). Firstly, the principle and scheme for analyzing the transmission path of the converter cabinet are proposed. The transfer function of each path is obtained by selecting suitable path points, reference points, and target points for air and structure acoustic vibration experiments. The external target point data are then combined with the neural network’s linear fitting function, and the contribution of each path is used as an output for network training while some path point contributions are rebuilt. The results indicate that the method’s outcomes are most accurate when the converter cabinet’s path point is 13 and the target point is 6. This approach offers an innovative technique for locating noise sources in intricate systems.
