Cyclostationary signals analysis is a highly widespread tool for non-stationary signals processing. In practical transmission, signals may be contaminated by non-stationary non-Gaussian impulse noises. However, cyclostationary is weak in dealing with such non-Gaussian distributions. In this paper, a cyclic mean kernel function is proposed for cyclostationary signal analysis under impulse noise, based on a high-dimensional space transformation. Then, the generalized cyclic mean kernel function is proposed based on the constructed generalized Hankel matrix. The simulation results show that the cyclostationary signal frequency estimation methods based on these two functions have advantages in performance and robustness over the existing methods under impulsive noise.
