Abstract: In this work, short-time Fourier transform, discrete Karhunen-Loéve transform and wavelet transform are being used for analysis of nonstacionary digital signals. Time-dependent frequency content and multiresolution approximations of discrete signals are being studied in more detail. Basic principles of multirate sampling are presented and their reflection on the frequency spectrum, caused by increasing or reducing the sampling frequency rate, is being observed. Multiresolution representation is introduced by means of discrete and continuous wavelet transform. The assumption that discrete and continuous wavelet transforms are very appropriate for analysis of nonstacionary signals was confirmed with extended tests and comparison of the results obtained. While discrete wavelet transform is being used for analysis of details and approximations of signals at different resolutions (it could also be used for signal compression), continuous wavelet transform is suitable for 2D representations and analysis of power distributions in the scale-frequency plane.
