Abstract English This paper concerns the optimal weighting factors for multiple<br> window spectrogram estimation of different stationary<br> and non-stationary processes. The choice of windows are of<br> course important but the weighting factors in the average of<br> the different spectrograms are as important. The criterion for<br> optimization is the normalized mean square error where the<br> normalization factor is the spectrogramestimate. This means<br> that the unknown weighting factors will be present in the numerator<br> as well as in the denominator. A quasi-Newton algorithm<br> is used for the estimation. The optimization is compared<br> for a number of well known sets of multiple windows<br> and the results show that the number as well as the shape of<br> the windows are important factors for a small mean square<br> error.
