What is a Hilbert transform envelope?

Method 2: The Hilbert Transform

This envelope detection method involves creating the analytic signal of the input using the Hilbert transform. An analytic signal is a complex signal, where the real part is the original signal and the imaginary part is the Hilbert transform of the original signal.

What is envelope envelope detection?

An envelope detector is sometimes referred to as an envelope follower in musical environments. It is still used to detect the amplitude variations of an incoming signal to produce a control signal that resembles those variations. However, in this case the input signal is made up of audible frequencies.

How do you find the envelope of a signal?

In the EMD algorithm, the upper and lower envelopes of signals are obtained by using two steps: 1) identify all the local extrema; 2) interpolate between extrema by a cubic spline [9]. The interpolative envelope includes the upper and lower envelopes.

What is envelope detection in ultrasound?

In medical ultrasound (US) imaging, the envelope detection is a commonly used digital signal processing (DSP) technique to extract the magnitude of the oscillating broadband radio-frequency (RF) signals from the high-frequency echo carrier before any back-end processing (Chang et al., 2007).
