Abstract

The Wigner Ville transform is introduced as an appropriate tool to analyze the signal in time and frequency plan since it give an accurate representation of energy. This article aims at providing a new mathematical representation for voiced speech signal based on Wigner Ville transform (WVT). We will create in the first place a mathematical formulation of the Wigner Ville Transform of a stationary voiced speech model. The speech model is expressed as a linear combination of sine waves with amplitudes, phases and harmonic frequencies. We then will compare the WVT of a real voiced speech signal to the WVT terms of the previous model.
