Prism signal processing for sensor condition monitoring
Manus Patrick Henry, Oleg Yu. Bushuev, Olga L. Ibryaeva · 2017
This paper introduces a new technique, Prism signal processing, which may be used for the tracking of one or more noisy sinusoids in a signal. A simulation study is presented demonstrating the potential of Prism signal processing as an alternative to Prony's method for analyzing exponentially decaying sinusoids. One application is to sensor condition monitoring of an industrial pressure sensor, using ultrasonic excitation to evaluate the sensor's structural integrity. Initial experimental results suggest the Prism technique can reveal details in the resulting frequency/amplitude time series of each component, which is not available through Prony's method.
