This study evaluates the performance of two popular transformations, the continuous wavelet transform and empirical mode decomposition with Hilbert transform (EMD+HT) , in estimating instantaneous frequency (IF) in the presence of noise. The findings demonstrate that under these conditions wavelets seeking harmonic similitude at various scales produce lower variance IF estimates than EMD+HT . The shortcomings of the latter approach are attributed to its empirical, envelope-dependent nature, leading to bases that are themselves derived from noise.
