Abstract

The availability of GPS (Global Positioning System) provides an alternative technology to seismography to detect earthquakes and detect their epicenters. However, the limited sampling rate and processing errors could potentially reduce the accuracy for estimating the required signal parameters. This paper evaluates the methods for analysing GPS derived seismic signals from the 2004 Sumatra Andaman Earthquake based on their timerepresentation, power spectrum and time-frequency representation. Between the three representations, the parameters of the earthquake signals such as P-wave and S-wave are clearly represented on the time-frequency representation.
