Cone-shape Distribution Function - Mathematical Definition

Mathematical Definition

The definition of the cone-shape distribution function is shown as follows:

where

and the kernel function is

The kernel function in domain is defined as:

Following are the magnitude distribution of the kernel function in domain.

Following are the magnitude distribution of the kernel function in domain with different values.

As we can see from the figure above, a properly chosen kernel of cone-shape distribution function can filter out the interference on the axis in the domain, or the ambiguity domain. Therefore, unlike the Choi-Williams distribution function, the cone-shape distribution function can effectively reduce the cross-term results form two component with same center frequency. However, the cross-terms on the axis are still preserved.

Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or definition:

    “The circumstances of human society are too complicated to be submitted to the rigour of mathematical calculation.”
    —Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)

    “According to our social pyramid, all men who feel displaced racially, culturally, and/or because of economic hardships will turn on those whom they feel they can order and humiliate, usually women, children, and animals—just as they have been ordered and humiliated by those privileged few who are in power. However, this definition does not explain why there are privileged men who behave this way toward women.”
    —Ana Castillo (b. 1953)
