Harmonic retrieval in nonstationary noise
نویسندگان
چکیده
Harmonic retrieval is a classical signal processing problem but it has been almost invariably assumed that the additive noise is stationary. In this paper, we abandon this requirement and allow the additive noise to be nonstationary (but also non-cyclostationary in order to distinguish it from the information bearing signal). We show that various FFT based approaches can still be used on a single record of data to yield frequency estimates that have the O(T ) variance, where T is the data length. Stationary multiplicative noise is also permitted in the model. Numerical examples illustrate the key concepts of the paper.

Estimation of harmonic interference parameters of surface-NMR signal using an adaptive method and residual signal power
Surface nuclear magnetic resonance (surface-NMR) method is a well-known tool for determining the water-bearing layers and subsurface resistivity structure. Harmonic interference is an inevitable interference in surface-NMR measurements. Accurate estimation of harmonic interference parameters (i.e., fundamental frequency, phase and amplitude) leads to better retrieval of power-line harmonics and...
متن کاملTwo-Dimensional Harmonic Retrieval in Correlative Noise Based on Genetic Algorithm
We propose a niche Genetic algorithm (GA) for the two-dimensional (2D) harmonic retrieval in the presence of correlative zero-mean, multiplicative, and additive noise. Firstly, we introduce a 2D fourth-order time-average moment spectrum which has extremum values at the harmonic frequencies. On this basis, the problem of harmonic retrieval is treated as a problem of finding the extremum values f...
متن کاملOn-line model selection of nonstationary time series using Gerschgorin disks
The paper proposes a method for on-line model selection of nonstationary time series. The method is based on computation of the covariance matrix of the data, transformation of the matrix by Housholder’s tridiagonalization, and application of a clustering algorithm that can separate the Gerschgorin disks of the transformed covariance matrix into disks that correspond to the signals and noise, r...
متن کاملA Robust Feature Extraction for End Point Detection in the Nonstationary Noisy Environment
This paper proposes a robust feature extraction for voice activity detection (VAD) in noisy environments where nonstationary noises exist. The accuracy of the VAD is drastically reduced because the fluctuation of features at the noise intervals causes false alarm rate to being increased. In this paper, in order to improve the VAD accuracy, harmonic-weighted energy is proposed. This feature extr...
متن کاملHarmonic retrieval in colored non-Gaussian noise
This paper addresses the harmonic retrieval problem in colored linear non-Gaussian noise of unknown covariance and unknown distribution. The assumptions made in the reported studies, that the non-Gaussian noise is asymmetrically distributed and no quadratic phase coupling occurs ,are released. Using the elaborately defined fourth-order cumulants of the complex noisy observations which are obtai...
