Abstract:In order to solve some problems that the signal is undetected in the low signaltonoise ratio(SNR), and the accuracy is not high of parameter estimation, the singular value decomposition (SVD) filtering is proposed on the basis of generalized S transform (GST) for multicomponent chirp signal (MLFM). On the basis of S transform, the generalized Stransform and inverse transformation formula are derived in the paper. The singular value of the generalized Stransform matrix is obtained by discrete singular value, and the multicomponent signal Timefrequency filtering is realized by selecting the appropriate singular value. The simulation results show that the method can effectively filter out the noise in the low SNR, and avoids the phenomenon of missed detection when the amplitude of each component signal is quite difference, the accuracy of the signal parameter estimation is optimized.
