Non-Stationary Signal Analysis Based on Hilbert-Huang Transform and Median Filter

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) is a new time-frequency analysis with adaptability and orthogonality, but it is rather weak in terms of noise resistance, even low noise can disturb the HHT result greatly. The paper launches an investigation on how noises affect the HHT result and proposes the method to solve the problem. The analytic framework for HHT is first introduced, the feature of the test signal is extracted by HHT. Median filter is adopted to reduce the frequency leakage of certain signal component caused by white noise. The method proposed is experimentally simulated and the results demonstrate its effectiveness.
