Measuring time-frequency information content using the Renyi entropies

Abstract: The generalized entropies of Renyi inspire new measures for estimating signal information and complexity in the time-frequency plane. When applied to a time-frequency representation (TFR) from Cohen's class or the affine class, the Renyi entropies conform closely to the notion of complexity that we use when visually inspecting time-frequency images. These measures possess several additional interesting and useful properties, such as accounting and cross-component and transformation invariances, that make them natural for time-frequency analysis. This paper comprises a detailed study of the properties and several potential applications of the Renyi entropies, with emphasis on the mathematical foundations for quadratic TFRs. In particular, for the Wigner distribution, we establish that there exist signals for which the measures are not well defined.

Duality and Biorthogonality for Weyl-Heisenberg Frames

Abstract: Let $a>0, b>0, ab<1;$ and let $g\in L^2({\Bbb R}).$ In this paper we investigate the relation between the frame operator $S:f\in L^2({\Bbb R})\rightarrow \sum_{n,m}\,(f,g_{na,mb})\,g_{na,mb}$ and the matrix $H$ whose entries $H_{k,l\,;\,k',l'}$ are given by $(g_{k'/b,l'/a},g_{k/b,l/a})$ for $k,l,k',l'\in{\Bbb Z}.$ Here $f_{x,y}(t)={\rm exp}(2\pi iyt)\,f(t-x),$ $t\in{\Bbb R}$ , for any $f\in L^2({\Bbb R}).$ We show that $S$ is bounded as a mapping of $L^2({\Bbb R})$ into $L^2({\Bbb R})$ if and only if $H$ is bounded as a mapping of $l^2({\Bbb Z}^2)$ into $l^2({\Bbb Z}^2).$ Also we show that $AI\leq S\leq BI$ if and only if $AI\leq\frac{1}{ab}\,H\leq BI,$ where $I$ denotes the identity operator of $L^2({\Bbb R})$ and $l^2({\Bbb Z}^2),$ respectively, and $A\geq 0,$ $B<\infty.$ Next, when $g$ generates a frame, we have that $(g_{k/b,l/a})_{k,l}$ has an upper frame bound, and the minimal dual function $^{\circ}\gamma$ can be computed as $ab\,\sum_{k,l}\,(H^{-1})_{k,l\,;\,o,o}\,g_{k/b,l/a}.$ The results of this paper extend, generalize, and rigourize results of Wexler and Raz and of Qian, D. Chen, K. Chen, and Li on the computation of dual functions for finite, discrete-time Gabor expansions to the infinite, continuous-time case. Furthermore, we present a framework in which one can show that certain smoothness and decay properties of a $g$ generating a frame are inherited by $^{\circ}\gamma.$ In particular, we show that $^{\circ}\gamma\in{\cal S}$ when $g\in{\cal S}$ generates a frame $({\cal S}$ Schwartz space). The proofs of the main results of this paper rely heavily on a technique introduced by Tolimieri and Orr for relating frame bound questions on complementary lattices by means of the Poisson summation formula.

Adaptive interpolation of discrete-time signals that can be modeled as autoregressive processes

Abstract: This paper presents an adaptive algorithm for the restoration of lost sample values in discrete-time signals that can locally be described by means of autoregressive processes. The only restrictions are that the positions of the unknown samples should be known and that they should be embedded in a sufficiently large neighborhood of known samples. The estimates of the unknown samples are obtained by minimizing the sum of squares of the residual errors that involve estimates of the autoregressive parameters. A statistical analysis shows that, for a burst of lost samples, the expected quadratic interpolation error per sample converges to the signal variance when the burst length tends to infinity. The method is in fact the first step of an iterative algorithm, in which in each iteration step the current estimates of the missing samples are used to compute the new estimates. Furthermore, the feasibility of implementation in hardware for real-time use is established. The method has been tested on artificially generated auto-regressive processes as well as on digitized music and speech signals.

The duality condition for Weyl-Heisenberg frames

Abstract: We present formulations of the condition of duality for Weyl-Heisenberg systems in the time domain, the frequency domain, the time-frequency domain, and, for rational time-frequency sampling factors, the Zak transform domain, both for the one-dimensional time-continuous case and the one-dimensional time-discrete case. Many of the results we obtain are presented in the more general framework of shift-invariant systems or filter banks, and we establish, for instance, relations with the polyphase matrix approach from filter bank theory. The formulation of the duality condition in various domains is notably useful for the design of perfect reconstructing shift-invariant Weyl-Heisenberg analysis and synthesis systems under restrictions of the constituent filter responses which may be stated in any of the domains just mentioned. In all considered domains we present formulas for frame operators and frame bounds, and we compute and characterize minimal dual systems.

Extended Nijboer-Zernike approach for the computation of optical point-spread functions

Abstract: New Bessel-series representations for the calculation of the diffraction integral are presented yielding the point-spread function of the optical system, as occurs in the Nijboer-Zernike theory of aberrations. In this analysis one can allow an arbitrary aberration and a defocus part. The representations are presented in full detail for the cases of coma and astigmatism. The analysis leads to stably converging results in the case of large aberration or defocus values, while the applicability of the original Nijboer-Zernike theory is limited mainly to wave-front deviations well below the value of one wavelength. Because of its intrinsic speed, the analysis is well suited to supplement or to replace numerical calculations that are currently used in the fields of (scanning) microscopy, lithography, and astronomy. In a companion paper [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 19, 860 (2002)], physical interpretations and applications in a lithographic context are presented, a convergence analysis is given, and a comparison is made with results obtained by using a numerical package.

Time-frequency distributions-a review

Abstract: A review and tutorial of the fundamental ideas and methods of joint time-frequency distributions is presented. The objective of the field is to describe how the spectral content of a signal changes in time and to develop the physical and mathematical ideas needed to understand what a time-varying spectrum is. The basic gal is to devise a distribution that represents the energy or intensity of a signal simultaneously in time and frequency. Although the basic notions have been developing steadily over the last 40 years, there have recently been significant advances. This review is intended to be understandable to the nonspecialist with emphasis on the diversity of concepts and motivations that have gone into the formation of the field. >

Newly featured topics of the Fourth Edition include:Retrial queuesApproximations for queueing networksNumerical inversion of transformsDetermining the appropriate number of servers to balance quality and cost of serviceEach chapter provides a self-contained presentation of key concepts and formulae, allowing readers to work with each section independently, while a summary table at the end of the book outlines the types of queues that have been discussed and their results. In addition, two new appendices have been added, discussing transforms and generating functions as well as the fundamentals of differential and difference equations. New examples are now included along with problems that incorporate QtsPlus software, which is freely available via the book's related Web site.With its accessible style and wealth of real-world examples, Fundamentals of Queueing Theory, Fourth Edition is an ideal book for courses on queueing theory at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners who analyze congestion in the fields of telecommunications, transportation, aviation, and management science.
