This document describes ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD), an adaptive method for noise reduction in signals. EEMD is an improvement over empirical mode decomposition (EMD) that can overcome the problem of mode mixing. EEMD works by decomposing the signal into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) in the presence of added white noise, which is then averaged out. The algorithm adds white noise to the target signal multiple times, applies EMD each time, and takes the mean of the IMFs as the final result. This process separates different scales present in the signal and reduces noise. The document evaluates EEMD on electrocardiogram and other non-stationary signals, demonstrating its effectiveness in noise reduction.

Noisy Speech Enhancement Using Soft Thresholding on Selected Intrinsic Mode F...CSCJournals
In this paper, a new speech enhancement method is introduced. It is essentially based on the Empirical Mode Decomposition technique (EMD) and a soft thresholding approach applied on selected modes. The proposed method is a fully data driven approach. First the noisy speech signal is decomposed adaptively into intrinsic oscillatory components called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) by using a time decomposition called sifting process. Second, selected IMFs are soft thresholded and added to the remaining IMFs with the residue to reconstitute the enhanced speech signal. The proposed approach is evaluated using speech signals from NOISEUS database corrupted with additive white Gaussian noise. Our algorithm is compared to other state of the art algorithms.

voice activity detector (VAD) is used to separate the speech data included parts from silence parts of the signal. In this paper a new VAD algorithm is represented on the basis of singular value decomposition. There are two sections to perform the feature vector extraction. In first section voiced frames are separated from unvoiced and silence frames. In second section unvoiced frames are silence frames. To perform the above sections, first, windowing the noisy signal then Hankel’s matrix is formed for each frame. The basis of statistical feature extraction of purposed system is slope of singular value curve related to each frame by using linear regression. It is shown that the slope of singular values curve per different SNRs in voiced frames is more than the other types and this property can be to achieve the goal the first part can be used. High similarity between feature vector of unvoiced and silence frame caused to approach for separation of the two categories above cannot be used. So in the second part, the frequency characteristics for identification of unvoiced frames from silent frames have been used. Simulation results show that high speed and accuracy are the advantages of the proposed system.

Chaotic signals denoising using empirical mode decomposition inspired by mult...IJECEIAES
Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is an effective noise reduction method to enhance the noisy chaotic signal over additive noise. In this paper, the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) generated by EMD are thresholded using multivariate denoising. Multivariate denoising is multivariable denosing algorithm that is combined wavelet transform and principal component analysis to denoise multivariate signals in adaptive way. The proposed method is compared at a various signal to noise ratios (SNRs) with different techniques and different types of noise. Also, scale dependent Lyapunov exponent (SDLE) is used to test the behavior of the denoised chaotic signal comparing with clean signal. The results show that EMD-MD method has the best root mean square error (RMSE) and signal to noise ratio gain (SNRG) comparing with the conventional methods.
Speech Processing in Stressing Co-Channel Interference Using the Wigner Distr...CSCJournals
The Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) can provide significant interference suppression (IS) over other techniques in real-life non-stationary environments because it can operate with very few samples. However, the optimum rotational parameter ‘a’ must first be estimated. Recently, a new method to estimate ‘a’ based on the value that minimizes the projection of the product of the Wigner Distributions (WDs) of the signal-of-interest (SOI) and interference was proposed. This is more easily calculated by recognizing its equivalency to choosing ‘a’ for which the product of the energies of the SOI and interference in the FrFT domain is minimized, termed the WD-FrFT algorithm. The algorithm was shown to estimate ‘a’ more accurately than minimum mean square error FrFT (MMSE-FrFT) methods and perform far better than MMSE Fast Fourier Transform (MMSE-FFT) methods, which only operate in the frequency domain. The WD-FrFT algorithm significantly improves interference suppression (IS) capability, even at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In this paper, we apply the proposed WD-FrFT technique to recovering a speech signal in non-stationary co-channel interference. Using mean-square error (MSE) between the SOI and its estimate as the performance metric, we show that the technique greatly outperforms the conventional methods, MMSE-FrFT and MMSE-FFT, which fail with just one non-stationary interferer, and continues to perform well in the presence of severe co-channel interference (CCI) consisting of multiple, equal power, non-stationary interferers. This method therefore has great potential for separating co-channel signals in harsh, noisy, non-stationary environments.

Interference Cancellation by Repeated Filtering in the Fractional Fourier Tra...IJERA Editor
The Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) is a useful tool that separates signals-of-interest (SOIs) from
interference and noise in non-stationary environments. This requires estimation of the rotational parameter „a‟ to
rotate the signal to a new domain along an axis „ta‟, in which the interference can best be filtered out. The value
of „a‟ is typically chosen as that which minimizes the mean-square error (MSE) between the desired SOI and its
estimate or that minimizes the overlap between the signal and noise, projected onto the axis „ta‟. In this paper, we
extend this concept to perform repeated filtering, in multiple FrFT domains to reduce the MSE further than can
be done with a single FrFT. We perform this solely using MSE as the metric by which to compute „a‟ at each
stage, thereby simplifying the approach and improving performance over conventional single stage FrFT
methods or methods based solely on the frequency domain filtering, such as the Fast Fourier transform (FFT).
We show that the proposed method improves the MSE two or three orders of magnitude over the conventional
methods using L ≤ 3 stages of FrFT filtering

Abstract: Quadratus lumborum (QL) myofascial trigger points (MTrP) are well documented in low back pain
(LBP) patients. There is a Growing body of evidence suggesting that Strain counterstrain technique (SCS) is an
effective treatment for the pain associated with MTrP. Literature is sparse regarding the effectiveness of SCS on
MTrP in QL in LBP subjects. We studied the immediate effects of SCS on pain intensity & functional outcome
in subjects having LBP with MTrP in QL. 40 subjects were randomly allocated into two groups. The Control
group (CG) received moist heat, & the Experimental group (EG) received moist heat & SCS technique.
Outcome measures were Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) & Patient Specific Functional Scale (PSFS).Pain
scores(VAS) Showed Statistically significant differences within the groups (P<0.0001), while clinically
significant improvement was seen only in EG with mean difference (3.75) , 95% confidence interval (4.17,3.04),
PSFS also showed significant improvement in EG.

Estimation of Ensembles in an Adventitious Wave by EMD and EEMD TechniquesIJERDJOURNAL
Abstract:- The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is a basic building block of Hilbert-Huang Transformation. The main principle behind EMD is to decompose a sound wave into its intrinsic mode function (IMF). The time domain analysis is fairly described with EMD breaking down. The basis is derived from the same sound wave only. The analysis is useful for affected respiratory sound waves, which are non-linear and non-stationary in nature. Huang and Wu established another milestone in the area of EMD called Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD). The EEMD is now can be used to interpolate a sound wave from the affected waveform. The EEMD specify a certain TRUE IMF components as an ensemble mean, every component consists of a sound wave in addition to Gaussian Noise of certain amplitude. In this paper, the mean and standard deviation at a different instance of the affected wheezing respiratory wave is discussed. The comparison between crackle wave and the wheezing wave is listed with respect to mean and standard deviation. The results specified in the table shows that the EEMD is an efficient technique for minimizing noise affected with abnormal lung waves.
Performance Analysis of Acoustic Echo Cancellation TechniquesIJERA Editor
Mainly, the adaptive filters are implemented in time domain which works efficiently in most of the applications. But in many applications the impulse response becomes too large, which increases the complexity of the adaptive filter beyond a level where it can no longer be implemented efficiently in time domain. An example of where this can happen would be acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) applications. So, there exists an alternative solution i.e. to implement the filters in frequency domain. AEC has so many applications in wide variety of problems in industrial operations, manufacturing and consumer products. Here in this paper, a comparative analysis of different acoustic echo cancellation techniques i.e. Frequency domain adaptive filter (FDAF), Least mean square (LMS), Normalized least mean square (NLMS) &Sign error (SE) is presented. The results are compared with different values of step sizes and the performance of these techniques is measured in terms of Error rate loss enhancement (ERLE), Mean square error (MSE)& Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR).
Signal Processing of Radar Echoes Using Wavelets and Hilbert Huang Transformsipij
Atmospheric Radar Signal Processing is one field of Signal Processing where there is a lot of scope for development of new and efficient tools for spectrum cleaning, detection and estimation of desired parameters. The wavelet transform and HHT (Hilbert-Huang transform) are both signal processing methods. This paper is based on comparing HHT and Wavelet transform applied to Radar signals. Wavelet analysis is one of the most important methods for removing noise and extracting signal from any data. The de-noising application of the wavelets has been used in spectrum cleaning of the atmospheric radar signals. HHT can be used for processing non-stationary and nonlinear signals. HHT is one of the timefrequency analysis techniques which consists of two parts: Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and instantaneous frequency solution. EMD is a numerical sifting process to decompose a signal into its fundamental intrinsic oscillatory modes, namely intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). A series of IMFs can be obtained after the application of EMD. In this paper wavelets and EMD has been applied to the time series data obtained from the mesosphere-stratosphere-troposphere (MST) region near Gadanki, Tirupati for 6 beam directions. The Algorithm is developed and tested using Matlab. Moments were estimated and analysis has brought out improvement in some of the characteristic features like SNR, Doppler width, Noise power of the atmospheric signals. The results showed that the proposed algorithm is efficient for dealing non-linear and non- stationary signals contaminated with noise. The results were compared using ADP (Atmospheric Data Processor) and plotted for validation of the proposed algorithm.

De-noising of the raw vibration signal is essential requirement to improve the accuracy and efficiency of any fault diagnosis of method. In many cases the noise signal is even stronger than the actual signal, so it is important to have such system in which noise elimination can be done effectively, there are many time domain and frequency domain methods are already available, where use of wavelet as time-frequency domain method in the field of de-noising the vibration signal is relatively new, it gives multi resolution analysis in both is time-frequency domain. In this paper various conventional thresholding methods based on discrete wavelet transform are compared with adaptive thresholding method and Penalized thresholding method for the de-noising of vibration signal of rotating machine. Signal to noise ratio (SNR), root mean square error (RMSE) in between de-noised signal with original signal are used as an indicator for selecting the effective thesholding method.
On The Fundamental Aspects of DemodulationCSCJournals
When the instantaneous amplitude, phase and frequency of a carrier wave are modulated with the information signal for transmission, it is known that the receiver works on the basis of the received signal and a knowledge of the carrier frequency. The question is: If the receiver does not have the a priori information about the carrier frequency, is it possible to carry out the demodulation process? This tutorial lecture answers this question by looking into the very fundamental process by which the modulated wave is generated. It critically looks into the energy separation algorithm for signal analysis and suggests modification for distortionless demodulation of an FM signal, and recovery of sub-carrier signals

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Abstract:Empirical mode decomposition (EMD), a data analysis technique, is used to denoise non-stationary
and non-linear processes. The method does not require any pre & post processing of signal and use of any
specified basis functions. But EMD suffers from a problem called mode mixing. So to overcome this problem a
new method known as Ensemble Empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) has been introduced. The presented
paper gives the detail of EEMD and its application in various fields. EEMD is a time–space analysis method, in
which the added white noise is averaged out with sufficient number of trials; and the averaging process results
in only the component of the signal (original data). EEMD is a truly noise-assisted data analysis (NADA)
method and represents a substantial improvement over the original EMD.
Keywords –Data analysis, Empirical mode decomposition, intrinsic mode function, mode mixing, NADA,
I. INTRODUCTION
Data analysis is an essential part in pure research and practical applications. Basically it is defined as a
process of evaluating data using analytical and logical reasoning to examine each component of the data
provided. As it is well known fact that linear and stationary processes are easy to analyze, but the real world
signals are mostly non-linear and non-stationary in nature. Analysis of such time varying signals is not an easy
process. This gives rise to breakdown the process (under consideration) into individual components and analyze
each component separately. Breaking out a complex process into separate components called decomposition.
There exist a number of time frequency (TF) representation methods of time domain signal such as Fourier
Transform (FT), Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT), Wavelet transform, Wigner Ville distribution, and
evolutionary spectrum. Out of these FT, STFT, and Wavelet are widely used which are described as follows:
a) Fourier Transform: Historically, Fourier spectrum analysis has provided a general method for examining
the global energy-frequency distribution. Fourier analysis has dominated the data analysis efforts soon after
its introduction because of its prowess and simplicity. The Fourier transform belongs to the class of
orthogonal transformations that uses fixed harmonic basis functions. The Fourier transform result can be
shown as a decomposition of the initial process into harmonic functions with fixed frequencies and
amplitudes But the FT is valid under extremely general conditions, i.e. the system must be linear; and the
data must be strictly periodic or stationary; otherwise the resulting spectrum will make little physical sense.
b) STFT: It is a limited time window-width Fourier spectral analysis. Since it relies on the traditional Fourier
spectral analysis, it is assumed that the data has to be piecewise stationary. So in case of non-stationary
signals, it has limited usage.
c) Wavelet transform: To avoid constraints associated with non- stationarity of the initial sequence, a wavelet
transform is used. Like the Fourier transform, it performs decomposition in a fixed basis of functions. But
unlike FT it expands the signal in terms of wavelet functions which are localized in both time and
frequency. But for practical purposes, it would be good to have a transform that would not only allow
dealing with non-stationary processes but would also use an adaptive transform basis determined by initial
data.
II. EMPIRICAL MODE DECOMPOSITION
Empirical Mode Decomposition has been introduced by Huang [1] for analyzing non-linear and non-
stationary signal. EMD effectively overcome the limitations of above described methods. It is an iterative
process which decomposes real signals x into elementary signals (modes) [5]. In this method, first the signal is
decomposed in to a number of IMF. For this the condition of IMF should be verified which are given below:
a. In the whole data set, the number of extrema and the number of zero crossings must be either equal or differ
at most by one.
b. At any data point, the mean value of the envelope defined using the local maxima and the envelope defined
using the local minima are zero.

II.1Sifting procedure
a. Compute a mean envelope m1 (t) of the signal x(t).
b. Let h1(t) = x(t) – m1(t) be the residue.
c. If h1(t) is an IMF, STOP; else, treat h1(t) (with its extrema) as a new signal to obtain h1, 1(t).
d. If h1,1(t) is an IMF, STOP; else, continue the same process
h1,1(t) =h1(t) – m1,1(t)
…
h1,k(t) =h1,k-1(t) – m1,k(t).
Generally, after a finite number k1 times, h1,k1 (t) will be an IMF, denoted by IMF1 (t), the first IMF.Set r1(t)
= x(t) – IMF1(t). And repeat the sifting procedure:
r2(t) = r1(t) – IMF2(t)
· ·
rn(t) = rn-1(t) – IMFn(t)
The process ends when rn has at most one extrema, where n is the total number of decomposed IMF. Thus x(t) is
decomposed into finitely many IMFs.
𝑥 t = IMFi
𝑛
𝑖=1 (t) + rn(t)
II.2 When does the sifting stop?
To guarantee that the IMF components retain enough information of both amplitude and frequency
modulation, a criterion is used to stop the sifting process. This can be accomplished by limiting the size of the
standard deviation, SD, computed from two consecutive sifting results as:
SD (i) =
|𝐼𝑀𝐹𝑡 𝑗 ,𝑖−1(t) – IMF j,i(t)|2
𝐼𝑀𝑡 𝐹𝑗,𝑖−1
2 (𝑡)
III. ENSEMBLE MODE DECOMPOSITION
When a signal contains intermittency the EMD algorithm described above may encounter the problem
of mode mixing. Frequent appearance of mode mixing, is defined as a single Intrinsic Mode Function (IMF)
either consisting of signals of widely disparate scales, or a signal of a similar scale residing in different IMF
components. The intermittence could not only cause serious aliasing in the time-frequency distribution, and also
make the individual IMF devoid of physical meaning [3].
To overcome this limitation a new noise assisted data analysis (NADA) method is proposed, the
ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD). This new approach is based on the recent studies of the
statistical properties of Fractional Gaussian noise (a versatile model for broadband noise include white noise
proposed by Flandrin, 2004, and Wu and Huang, 2004), which showed that the EMD is effectively an adaptive
dyadic filter bank when applied to fractional Gaussian noise [2].
III.1 EEMD Algorithm
The steps for EEMD are as follows [3].
a) Initialize the number of ensemble I.
b) Generate xi
t = x t + wi
t i = 1, … , I are different realization of white Gaussian noise.
c) Each xi
t i = 1, … , I , is fully decomposed by EMD getting their modes IMFk
i
[t], where k=1, 2,…,K
indicates the modes.
d) Assign IMFk as the k-th mode of x[t], obtained as the average of the corresponding IMFk
i
: IMFk t =
1
I

i=1 t .
Just as the EMD method, the given signal, x(t) can be reconstructed according to the following
equation:

The EEMD described here employs all the important characteristics of noise. Its principle is simple:
when a collection of white noise is added to the target signal it cancels each other out in a time space ensemble

mean. The reason is obvious that the added white noise would populate the whole time-frequency space
uniformly with the constituting components of different scales separated by the filter bank.
IV. EXPERIMENT AND RESULT
Electrocardiogram (ECG) and non-stationary signal is analyzed in the present paper. Here the data
length of ECG signal is 983 samples. In fig. 2 the added noise is only white Gaussian noise and reconstructed
signal is shown in fig. 3.Here other than white Gaussian is also added to ECG signal to check the performance
of EEMD algorithm. Three different patterns of added noise are [4]:
a. EMG noise: Electromagnetic sources from the environment may overlay or cancel the signal being recorded
from a muscle. It can be modeled by a random number with normal distribution, originally manipulated
with the Matlab code randn.m. The maximum noise level is (1/8) V.
b. Power line interference: Power line interference is modelled by 50 Hz sinusoidal function with
multiplication on amplitude derived with Matlab code rand.m. The maximum noise level is (1/4) V.
c. Baseline wander: Baseline wander is modelled by a Baseline wander a 0.333 Hz sinusoidal function. The
maximum noise level is (1/8)V.
The reconstructed signal via EEMD method adding above noise is shown in figure (5).Another signal having
data length 500 samples is shown in figure (6) and its reconstructed signal is shown in figure (8).

V. CONCLUSION
A new technique for the signal analysing and denoising has been described in this paper. Simulations
results of the synthesized signals have expressed the effectiveness of the new algorithm. The technique differs
from many conventional and EMD based algorithms as it uses noise to analysis signals and noise reduction. The
method is a fully data-driven approach and the described technique has the ability to reduce noise efficiently for
a large class of signals including almost all real and non-stationary signals.
