An improved Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) method based on a cross-correlation filter was proposed for reduction of multipath and noise interference. Multipath interference was first removed by cross-corre- lation filtering. Then the delays of each pulse in every echo were summed. An EMD algorithm was used for noise reduction for the total delay of each echo. The corresponding EMD results of every echo were then summed and averaged.
