Instantaneous Power Spectrum

The need for tools capable of handling non-stationarities in the spectral content of the data was recognized as early as 1946. The Wigner-Ville Distribution (WD) has been extensively used since its introduction in 1948, but suffers from some associated problems (e.g., spectral cross-terms and requir...
