Abstract

Fourier investigation becomes invaluable when the signal contains non-stationary characteristics or transitory characteristics like transients and patterns that vary with time. As time domain and frequency domain representations are inadequate to give all the information possessed by the non-stationary signal. Therefore time-Frequency methods (TFMs) are used to analyze a signal in time and frequency domains simultaneously. This paper deals with the analysis of non-stationary signals by using short time Fourier transform; fractional Fourier transform to analyze the time frequency behavior of the non-stationary signal. A combination method is known as Short time fractional Fourier transform (STFRFT) also proposed here, which provides unique properties of the non-stationary signal. By using different windows like the rectangular window, Hamming window, Hanning window and Blackman window, the fractional Fourier transform of the chirp signal has been plotted. The MATLAB simulations were made to show the STFRFT of the signal.

Important Announcements

All the authors, conference coordinators, conveners, and guest editors kindly check their articles' originality before submitting them to IJCERT. If any material is found to be duplicate submission or sent to other journals when the content is in the process with IJCERT, fabricated data, cut and paste (plagiarized), at any stage of processing of material, IJCERT is bound to take the following actions.
1. Rejection of the article.
2. The author will be blocked for future communication with IJCERT if duplicate articles are submitted.
3. A letter regarding this will be posted to the Principal/Director of the Institution where the study was conducted.
4. A List of blacklisted authors will be shared among the Chief Editors of other prestigious Journals
We have been screening articles for plagiarism with a world-renowned tool: Turnitin However, it is only rejected if found plagiarized. This more stern action is being taken because of the illegal behavior of a handful of authors who have been involved in ethical misconduct. The Screening and making a decision on such articles costs colossal time and resources for the journal. It directly delays the process of genuine materials.
