Item Improved Wigner-Ville distribution performance based on DCT/DFT harmonic wavelet transform and modified magnitude group delay(2008) Narasimhan, S.V.; Haripriya, A.R.; Shreyamsha Kumar, B.K.A new Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) estimation is proposed. This improved and efficient WVD is based on signal decomposition (SD) by DCT or DFT harmonic wavelet transform (DCTHWT or DFTHWT) and the modified magnitude group delay (MMGD). The MMGD processing can be either in fullband or subband. The SD by DCTHWT provides better quality low leakage decimated subband components. The concatenation of WVDs of the subbands results in an overall WVD, significantly free from crossterms and Gibbs ripple. As no smoothing window is used for the instantaneous autocorrelation (IACR), MMGD removes or reduces the Gibbs ripple preserving the frequency resolution achieved by the DCT/DFT HWT. The SD by DCTHWT compared to that of DFTHWT, has improved frequency resolution and detectability. These are due to the symmetrical data extension and the consequential low leakage (bias and variance). As the zeros due to the associated white noise are removed by the MMGD effectively in subband domain than in fullband, the proposed WVD based on subband has a better noise immunity. Compared to fullband WVD, the subband WVD is computationally efficient and achieves a significantly better: frequency resolution, detectability of low-level signal in the presence of high-level one and variance. The SD-based methods, however cannot bring out the frequency transition path from band to band clearly, as there will be gap in the contour plot at the transition. For the proposed methods, the heart rate variability (HRV) real data is also considered as an example. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

The 2D-modified magnitude group delay (MMGD) is applied to 2D-discrete Fourier transform (2D-DFT) for the first and to the analytic 2D-discrete Cosine transform for the second. The analytic 2D-DCT preserves the desirable properties of the DCT (like, improved frequency resolution, leakage and detectability) and is realized by a 2D-discrete cosine transform (2D-DCT) and its Hilbert transform. The 2D-MMGD is an extension from 1D to 2D, and it reduces the variance preserving the original frequency resolution of 2D-DFT or 2D-analytic DCT, depending upon to which is applied. The first and the second methods are referred to as DFT-MMGD and DCT-MMGD, respectively. The proposed methods are applied to 2D sinusoids and 2D AR process, associated with Gaussian white noise. The performance of the DCT-MMGD is found to be superior to that of DFT-MMGD in terms of variance, frequency resolution and detectability. The performance of DFT-MMGD and DCT-MMGD is better than that of 2D-LP method even when the signal to noise ratio is low. © 2012 Springer-Verlag London Limited.
