Abstract

Since the multicomponent signal with nonlinear time-frequency structures occupies a wide frequency band, and the spectral contents may alias, it is therefore difficult to separate the signal components and to separate the signal from background noise. In this paper, a new signal separation method using FMmlet transform is proposed by taking the advantage that the atoms of FMmlet transform can match both the linear and nonlinear time-varying structures. Theoretical predictions and numerical experiments show the feasibility of the methodology advocated.
