It divides the entire vibration frequency band into low-frequency and high-frequency intervals, respectively, based on the frequency characteristics of the low-frequency and high-frequency stations. Different transfer function compensation and window compensation techniques are applied to different intervals. Furthermore, effective frames are extracted from the time-domain output signals using a frame extraction method, achieving smooth overlap of the system's time-domain signals.
