Next: CONCLUSION Up: CHIRPLET TRANSFORM SUBSPACES Previous: Nondilational Chirplet Transform . Suppose we choose a windowed sinusoidal FM signal for our mother chirplet. Such a signal has a frequency that periodically rises and falls (much like the vibrato of musical instruments or the wail of a police siren). ... Figure 14 . ... Using the warbling mother chirplet, we also computed the ``dilation-dilation'' ( ) plane of the chirplet transform (Fig. 16 ) for the pendulum data. ...
... Measurements of fluctuations of the streamwise and vertical components of wind velocity were performed by two-component sonic anemometer of continuous radiation with capacitor microphones. Measurements of temperature fluctuations were performed with the aid of resistance thermometer. ... Average wind velocity at the 5 meters height was about 5 m/s. With the aid of multichannel registrator the simultaneous recordings of pulsations of temperature and velocity components were made. ...
