Simulation Study on Multi-Rate Time-Frequency Analysis of Non-Stationary Signals

摘要

A new time-frequency analysis method is proposed in this study using a multi-rate signal decomposition technique for the analysis of non-stationary signals. The method uses a multi-rate filter bank for an improved non-stationary signal decomposition treatment, and uses the Wigner-Ville distribution(WVD) analysis for signal reconstruction. The method presented in this study can effectively resolves the time and frequency resolution issue for non-stationary signal analysis and the cross-term issue typically encountered in time-frequency analysis.The feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method are evaluated and verified in a numerical simulation.
