Delayed exponential fitting by best tensor rank-(R1;R2;R3) approximation
Abstract
We present a subspace-based scheme for the estimation of the poles (angular-frequencies and damping-factors) of a sum of damped and delayed sinusoids. In our model each component is supported over a different time frame, depending on the delay parameter. Classical subspace based methods are not suited to handle signals with varying time-support. In this contribution, we propose a solution based on the best rank-(R1, R2, R3) approximation of a partially structured Hankel tensor on which the data are mapped. We show, by means of an example, that our approach outperforms the current tensor and matrix-based approaches in terms of the accuracy of the damping parameter estimates.
