Abstract

A kernel based on the first kind Bessel function of order one is proposed to compute the time-frequency distributions of nonstationary signals. This kernel can suppress the cross terms of the distribution effectively. It is shown that the Bessel distribution (the time-frequency distribution using Bessel kernel) meets most of the desirable properties with high time-frequency resolution. A numerical alias-free implementation of the distribution is presented. Examples of applications in time-frequency analysis of the heart's sound and Doppler blood flow signals are given to show that the Bessel distribution can be easily adapted to two very different signals for cardiovascular signal processing. By controlling a kernel parameter, this distribution can be used to compute the time-frequency representations of transient deterministic and random signals. The study confirms the potentials of the proposed distribution in nonstationary signal analysis.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
