Sinusoidal Fitting Decomposition for Instantaneous Characteristic Representation of Multi-Componential Signal.

Abstract

The research on how to effectively extract the instantaneous characteristic components of non-stationary signals continues to be both a research hotspot and a very challenging topic. In this paper, a new method of multi-component decomposition is proposed to decompose a signal into finite mono-component signals and extract their Instantaneous Amplitude (IA), Instantaneous Phase (IP), and Instantaneous Frequency (IF), which is called Sinusoidal Fitting Decomposition (SFD). The proposed method can ensure that the IA extracted from the given signal must be positive, the IP is monotonically increasing, and the signal synthesized by both IA and IP must be mono-componential and smooth. It transforms the decomposition process into a synthesis iterative process and does not rely on any dictionary or basis function space or carry out the sifting operation. In addition, the proposed method can describe the instantaneous-frequency-amplitude characteristics of the signal very well on the time-frequency plane. The results of numerical simulation and the qualitative analysis of the amount of calculation show that the proposed method is effective.
