This paper addresses the problem of the blind source separation which consists of recovering a set of signals of which only instantaneous linear mixtures are observed. A blind source separation approach exploiting the difference in the time-frequency (t-f) signatures of the sources is considered. The approach is based on the diagonalization of a combined set of 'spatial time-frequency distributions'. Asymptotic performance analysis of the proposed method is performed. Numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach and to validate the theoretical expression of the asymptotic performance.
