False Peaks Suppression based on Cross-High-Order Spectral QR Decomposition Approach

Abstract

In signal processing, a frequently encountered problem is harmonic retrieval in additive colored noise, especially false peaks existence in harmonic signal peaks. The purpose of this paper is to develop an efficient approach to clear the false peaks based on cross-high-order spectral QR decomposition approach. Simulation results indicate that spectral density curve is smooth without false peaks existence. The methods have better in resolving power and performance than previous MUSIC approach. Thus, this approach is ideally suited for harmonic retrieval in additive colored noise and short data conditions, and is also accurate to estimation signal parameter in hybrid colored noises.
