Instantaneous frequency estimation using the reassignment method
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 convolution is not placed at the center of the convolution kernel but rather reassigned to the center of mass of the function within the kernel. The resulting reassigned representation yields signi cantly improved component localization. In this paper we will study the impact of the reassigned time-frequency representation on our ability to reliably estimate instantaneous frequency for a given seismic signal.

A simple scheme for enhanced reassignment of the smoothed pseudo Wigner-Ville representation of noisy signals
The reassignment procedure has been often employed to improve readability of some Time-Frequency Representations (TFRs). When processing noisy signals, the problem of sensitivity of the technique to noise is encountered. In this paper, a simple modification of reassignment method is proposed, based on thresholding operation. Specifically, by preventing the reassignment of the distribution coeff...
متن کاملTime Frequency Reassignment: A Review and Analysis
Time-frequency reassignment is a relatively old but under-explored method for time frequency analysis. This report reviews previous research on reassignment and relates it to instantaneous frequency in an explicit and novel way. New measures based on reassignment of the amplitude spectrum, as opposed to the traditional phase spectrum, are proposed and analysed. The statistical properties of rea...
متن کاملComparison of Non-stationary Sinusoid Estimation Methods Using Reassignment and Derivatives
In this paper, three state of the art non-stationary sinusoidal analysis methods based on Fourier transform (FT) are compared the derivative method, reassignment and generalized reassignment. 1 The derivative method and reassignment were designed to analyze linear log-AM/linear FM sinusoids. Generalized reassignment can analyze sinusoids containing arbitrary order modulations, however the discu...
متن کاملA Reassignment Method for Improved Readability of Time-Frequency Representations
A simple but efficient method to improve readability of discrete pseudo time-frequency representations (TFRs) of nonstationary signals by the reassignment of the representations in discrete frequency dimension is presented. The method does not rely on the nonzero time derivative of the window function employed in the estimation of pseudo TFR. This property of the reassignment method is advantag...
متن کاملReassignment and synchrosqueezing for general time-frequency filter banks, subsampling and processing
In this contribution, we extend the reassignment method (RM) and synchrosqueezing transform (SST) to arbitrary time-frequency localized lters and, in the rst case, arbitrary downsampling factors. A su cient condition for the invertibility of the SST is provided. RM and SST are techniques for deconvolution of shorttime Fourier and wavelet representations. In both methods, the partial phase deriv...
