Abstract

A new method is proposed in this article for fast-varying AM–FM components extraction. There are two prominent characteristics in this method. Firstly, a new evaluation method for the instantaneous bandwidth is established, which is based on the instantaneous slope of the time-frequency curve with respect to the AM–FM component. Secondly, a new adaptive STFT algorithm is established, which adjusts the window width by adapting to the instantaneous bandwidth at each frequency position. In order to extract multiple AM–FM components from a signal, the width of the reconstruction area is required to be determined efficiently to avoid the interference caused by adjacent components. Simulations are given in the end, which show that the proposed method has good performance for fast-varying AM–FM components extraction from noisy signals.
