Abstract
An accurate frequency estimator for real sinusoid based on Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is proposed. The proposed estimator is based on the interpolation of the maximum DFT spectral line and two Discrete-Time Fourier Transform (DTFT) spectral lines and can operate with both the rectangular window and the maximum sidelobe decay (MSD) window. In the coarse estimation step, the proposed estimator with the MSD window is used. According to the value of the coarse estimate, the negative frequency spectral component is removed. In the fine estimation step, the proposed estimator with the rectangular window is utilized to achieve the Cramer–Rao lower bound (CRLB). Simulation results show that the performance of this algorithm is better than that of the AM algorithm, Candan algorithm, Djukanovic algorithm, and FDIAM algorithm.
