Fast Frequency Estimation by Zero Crossings of Differential Spline Wavelet Transform
(2005-05-31)
Zero crossings or extrema of a wavelet transform constitute important signatures for signal analysis with the advantage of great simplicity. In this paper, we introduce a fast frequency-estimation method based on zero-crossing ...
