Abstract:
The method of linear transformation (LT) in the modification known as method of Buys Ballot was examined in its ability to reveal polyharmonic periodicities in EEG signals. Applying this method to simulated signals-additive mixtures of sinusoids, periodic squared waves and Gaussian noise some rules were found, which can be used in analyzing of EEG signals. The results were compared to that of Discrete Fourier analysis. The conclusion was made that in contrast to the method of Fourier giving the frequency contents, LT method is able to reveal not only the mono- but also polyharmonic components with their waveshape (the reconstruction) even if their frequency bands are overlapping.
