In this study, we proposed a joint time-frequency distribution of suppressing cross-terms aiming at cross-terms interference of Wigner-Ville distribution. According to the analyzed signal, the Wigner-Ville distribution and Smooth Pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution can be obtained. Moreover, the prototype of timefrequency distribution can be obtained by non-linear filter for Smooth Pseudo Wigner-V...

In this paper, A flexibility-based method for damage identification of cantilever-type structures is proposed. Using the linear relation between flexibility matrix element and structure parameter, the damage equation involving modal parameter and damage coefficient of each structure element is established firstly. Then, using the free vibration response signal of structure and the time-frequenc...

S-transform is a new time-frequency analysis method, which is deduced from short-time Fourier transform and continue Wavelet transform. It has much better performance than traditional time-frequency method. Therefore, in this paper, the basic principle of is briefly introduced and the relationships between is analyzed by theoretical derivation. According to the simulation experiments, the time-...

The measurement algorithms applied in power quality measurement systems are based on Fast Fourier Transformation. That one-dimension frequency analysis is sufficient in many cases. However, to illustrate the character of the signal in a more comprehensive manner, it is crucial to represent the investigated signal on time-frequency plane. There are a lot of time-frequency representations (TFR) f...

This study proposes the application of different linear and quadratic Time-Frequency Representations (TFR) for the analysis of Ventricular Late Potentials (VLP) in High-Resolution Electrocardiographic (HRECG) records. The TFR used here were Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), Wigner-Ville (WV) and Choi-Williams (CW) distributions. These techniques were used to evaluate the risk of Ventricular ...

A new approach has been proposed for improving the performance of the Wigner–Ville distribution. This approach is based on signal decomposition and modified magnitude group delay function. Signal decomposition achieved by perfect reconstruction filter bank reduces significantly the existence of crossterms. The Gibbs ripple effect is due to truncation of the Wigner–Ville distribution kernel. The...
