Instantaneous frequency estimation based on the robust spectrogram

چکیده
Robust M-periodogram is defined for the analysis of signals with heavy-tailed distribution noise. In the form of a robust spectrogram (RSPEC) it can be used for the analysis of nonstationary signals. In this paper a RSPEC based instantaneous frequency (IF) estimator, with a timevarying window length, is presented. The optimal choice of the window length can resolve the bias-variance tradeoff in the RSPEC based IF estimation. However, it depends on the unknown nonlinearity of the IF. The algorithm used in this paper is able to provide the accuracy close to the one that could be achieved if the IF, to be estimated, were known in advance. Simulations show good accuracy ability of the adaptive algorithm and good robustness property with respect to rare high magnitude noise values.

Averaged multiple L-spectrogram for analysis of noisy nonstationary signals
—A time-frequency approach for improved instantaneous frequency estimation of noisy signals has been proposed. This approach is based on the averaged multiple time-frequency distribution obtained by using L-spectrograms with different values of the scaling parameter L. The L-spectrogram with low value of L is characterized by large bias and low variance, while higher L decreases the bias and in...
متن کاملWolves chorus noise reduction by spectrogram image processing
We investigate the use of image processing techniques based on partial differential equations applied to the image produced by timefrequency representations of one-dimensional signals, such as the spectrogram. Specifically, we use the PDE model introduced by Álvarez, Lions and Morel for noise smoothing and edge enhancement, which we show to be stable under signal and window perturbations in the...
متن کاملOverview of Signal Instantaneous Frequency Estimation Methods
This paper gives an overview of existing instantaneous frequency (IF) estimation methods divided into several major categories. One of the first IF estimation approaches was based on the spectrogram, the resolution of which is highly window size dependant. In order to improve the IF estimation accuracy, the iterative method was proposed, such that each iteration gives more accurate estimation o...
متن کاملInstantaneous frequency estimation using the reassignment method
This paper explores the method of reassignment for extracting instantaneous frequency attributes from seismic data. The reassignment method was rst applied to the spectrogram by Kodera, Gendrin and de Villedary [5] and later generalized to any bilinear time-frequency or time-scale representation by Auger and Flandrin [1]. Key to the method is a nonlinear convolution where the value of the convo...
متن کاملCipher text only attack on speech time scrambling systems using correction of audio spectrogram
Recently permutation multimedia ciphers were broken in a chosen-plaintext scenario. That attack models a very resourceful adversary which may not always be the case. To show insecurity of these ciphers, we present a cipher-text only attack on speech permutation ciphers. We show inherent redundancies of speech can pave the path for a successful cipher-text only attack. To that end, regularities ...
