Teager's Energy Operator Does anyone know how to find information on the derivation (rather than the definition and application) of Teager's Energy Operator, both for the continuous and sampled case.
I have Kaiser's early papers "On a simple Algorithm to calculate the 'Energy' of a signal" and "Some useful properties of Teager's Energy operator" but these seem to stop short of giving the derivation.
This paper does a good job of explaining it, based on the energy of a mass-spring system.
