Adaptive Short-time Fourier Transform and Synchrosqueezing Transform for Non-stationary Signal Separation
share
The synchrosqueezing transform, a kind of reassignment method, aims to sharpen the time-frequency representation and to separate the components of a multicomponent non-stationary signal. In this paper, we consider the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) with a time-varying parameter. Based on the local approximation of linear frequency modulation mode, we analyze the well-separated condition of non-stationary multicomponent signals with this type STFT. In addition we propose the STFT-based synchrosqueezing transform (FSST) with a time-varying parameter, named the adaptive FSST, to enhance the time-frequency concentration and resolution of a multicomponent signal, and to separate its components more accurately. We also propose the 2nd-order adaptive FSST to further improve the adaptive FSST for the non-stationary signals with fast-varying frequencies. Furthermore, we present a localized optimization algorithm based on our well-separated condition to estimate the time-varying parameter adaptively and automatically. We also provide simulation results on synthetic signals and the bat echolocation signal to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
