Abstract :
Short time Fourier transform is simple and yet effective tool for computing time frequency representations. However, its performance greatly depends upon shape and size of window employed. Longer windows give good frequency resolution while shorter windows give good time resolution. In this paper, we present a novel method to improve the resolution of short time Fourier transform by combining short time Fourier transforms of different window lengths.
