Abstract

The classical multi-frequency higher order spectra (HOS) based on the Fourier transform has been widely investigated for nonlinearity detection in stationary temporal processes. However, for some important applications (e.g. radar and sonar systems, mechanical systems with transient shaft rotation, etc.) it is necessary to process transient temporal processes with any (i.e. linear and nonlinear) polynomial variation of the instantaneous frequency. The classical HOS is not suitable for these processes because:

- the stationary kernel of the Fourier transform is not matched with transient processes, including processes with frequency variation in time.
- averaging of HOS for the whole process duration creates estimation errors due to signal non-stationarity.
