Everything about Cone-shape distribution function
Quadratic time-frequency representation
The cone-shape distribution function, also called the Zhao–Atlas–Marks distribution or ZAM distribution, is a quadratic time-frequency representation in Cohen's class. It was introduced by Yunxin Zhao, Les E. Atlas and Robert J. Marks II in 1990. Its name refers to the support of the smoothing kernel in the time-lag plane. The cone constraint permits temporal smoothing while retaining finite time support, and the choice of lag weighting affects interference suppression and spectral behavior. The original cone kernel and an interval-normalized cone have different ambiguity multipliers, so their marginal properties must be distinguished. Wikipedia →
