Abstract

Although the multifractal singularity spectrum revealed the distribution of singularity exponent, it failed to consider the temporal information, therefore it is hard to describe the dynamic evolving process of non-stationary and nonlinear systems. In this paper, we aim for a multifractal analysis and propose a time-singularity multifractal spectrum distribution (TS-MFSD), which will hopefully reveal the spatial dynamic character of fractal systems. Similar to the Wigner–Ville time-frequency distribution, the time-delayed conjugation of fractal signals is selected as the windows function. Furthermore, the time-varying Holder exponent and the time-varying wavelet singularity exponent are deduced based on the instantaneous self-correlation fractal signal. The time-singularity exponent distribution i.e. TS-MFSD is proposed, which involves time-varying Hausdorff singularity spectrum distribution, time-varying large deviation multifractal spectrum and time-varying Legendre spectrum distribution, which exhibit the singularity exponent distribution of fractal signal at arbitrary time. Finally, we studied the algorithm of the TS-MFSD based on the wavelet transform module maxima method, analyzed and discussed the characteristic of TS-MFSD based on Devil Staircase signal, stochastic fractional motion and real sea clutter.
