This paper aims to improve the use of continuous wavelet transform (CWT) to identify the damping parameters from the free decay responses of structures. Numerical response functions (impulse response functions) were simulated with lower frequencies and higher damping parameters using the Hilbert Transform, and the damping parameters were estimated by extracting wavelet coefficients that corresponded to the frequency components of these numerical response functions. Numerical simulations were also performed on single-, separated- and closed-mode systems to analyze the effect of the center frequency of the mother wavelet on the estimation of system damping parameters. Experiments were performed on a two-span H-Beam. This study focuses on the damping parameter estimation errors for the center frequency setting of the mother wavelet function. The reliability of the estimated damping parameters can be improved by selecting the center frequencies of the mother wavelet function so that each corresponding scale is localized at half of the total scale.
