ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for suppressing noise interference with the following steps:Gaining of an analytical signal from an input signal (Sin);Calculation of an instant amplitude signal (IA) from the analytical signal;Calculation of an instant phase signal (IFI) from the analytical signal;Non-linear modification of the instant amplitude signal (IA) into a modified instant amplitude signal (IAmod);Linkage of the modified instant amplitude signal (IAmod) with the instant phase signal (IFI) into an output signal (Sout).
