Elimination of interference component in Wigner-Ville distribution for the signal with 1/f spectral characteristic

IEEE Trans Biomed Eng. 1997 Sep;44(9):903-7. doi: 10.1109/10.623060.

Abstract

A new technique for interference-term suppression in Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) is proposed for the signal with 1/f spectrum shape. The spectral characteristic of the signal is altered by f alpha filtering before time-frequency analysis and compensated after analysis. With the utilization of the proposed technique in smoothed pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution, an excellent suppression of interference component can be achieved.
