S. Peleg et B. Friedlander, MULTICOMPONENT SIGNAL ANALYSIS USING THE POLYNOMIAL-PHASE TRANSFORM, IEEE transactions on aerospace and electronic systems, 32(1), 1996, pp. 378-387
We consider the problem of estimating signals consisting of multiple c
omponents of the form b(n)exp{l phi(n)} where b(n) is a constant or a
slowly varying amplitude, and the phi(n) is a polynomial function of t
ime. We present an estimation algorithm based on the discrete polynomi
al transform, and illustrate its performance by several examples. The
proposed algorithm is computationally much simpler than the maximum li
kelihood estimator for this problem.
