Abstract
A method and a system for generating a time-frequency representation of an aperiodic continuous input signal comprising generating a periodic train of short pulses having a repetition frequency, and sampling the signal temporally using the periodic train of short pulses to obtain a temporally sampled signal, the temporally sampled signal comprising a plurality of sampled copies of the input signal, each sampled copy being spaced in function of the repetition frequency of the periodic train of short pulses. The temporally sampled signal is delayed based on the repetition frequency to obtain a delayed temporally sampled signal comprising a plurality of delayed sampled copies, a spectral representation of a given delayed sampled copy being delayed in function of the repetition frequency. The delayed temporally sampled signal is evaluated over consecutive time slots to obtain, for each consecutive time slot, a respective output signal in the time-frequency domain.
