description Parameter estimation represents an important aspect of modeling electromagnetic systems, and a wide range of parameter estimation strategies has been explored in literature. Most parameter estimation methodologies make use of either time-domain or frequency-domain responses as measured from the terminals of the device under test. Very limited research has, however, been conducted into exploring the use of modal decomposition strategies on the time-domain waveforms for parameter estimation applications. In this paper, the use of Empirical Mode Decomposition for estimating the parameters of a three-section lumped parameter transformer model is explored. A novel approach is proposed to define the optimization cost function in terms of the intrinsic modes of simulated time-domain waveforms. The results are compared with results obtained using classical time-domain and frequency-domain approaches. It is shown through an impulse response test that weighting the modes obtained from the Inferred Empirical Mode Decomposition approach presented in this work offers advantages in terms of accurately representing the target model transfer function dynamics and can assist in interpreting the various dynamic modes associated with the target model.
