What Kind of TFR Exists? Linear TFRs
TFR is nothing but a mapping of a signal above time- “Linear” means that the transform complies with the
frequency plane, and since we can not localize a signal at superposition law.
a time-frequency point, TFR is not uniquely defined.
What we can do is to make TFR possess some desirable x (t ) = c1 x1 ( t ) + c 2 x 2 ( t )
mathematical properties for the convenience of the

In practice, TFR can be linear, quadratic and even
nonlinear. The linear and quadratic TFRs are most widely The most widely used linear TFRs are Short-Time Fourier

Interference Terms in Quadratic TFRs Spectrogram & Scalogram
The quadratic transforms are no longer linear. They don’t
comply with the superposition law any more. In general One direct quadratic TFR is the square of a linear TFR.

Wigner Distribution (WD) WD of Signal 1
There’re also many other quadratic TFRs. Among them, the
Wigner Distribution (WD) possesses many desirable properties,
so we introduce it here.
