Description
Summary:The proposal of new signal representation techniques in time‐frequency domain can improve the visualization and acquisition of frequency components in various applications. In this sense, this article presents a novel and different representation of the short‐time Fourier transform (STFT) spectrogram for signal analysis, based on changing the visualization from a linear to a cylindrical representation by means of a linear transformation. Simulations show that this new representation focuses on the accuracy of the frequency components rather according to the angular position in which they occur; on the other hand it is easier to analyze high‐frequency components than those of low frequency. Finally, it is visually easier to identify fixed components along the test in this representation in a wide window STFT analysis.
