IMPROVEMENT OF ENSEMBLE EMPIRICAL MODE DECOMPOSITION BY OVER-SAMPLING
The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is a useful method for the analysis of nonlinear and nonstationary signals and found immediate applications in diverse areas of signal processing. However, the major inconvenience of EMD is the mode mixing. The ensemble EMD (EEMD) was proposed to solve the problem of mode-mixing with the assistance of added noises producing the residue noise in the signal reconstructed. The residue noise in the IMFs can be reduced with a large number of ensemble trials at the expense of the increase of computational time. Improving the computing time of the EEMD by reducing the number of ensemble trials was thus proposed in this paper by over-sampling the signal to be decomposed. Numerical simulations were conducted to demonstrate proposed approach.
