摘要

A normalized frequency adaptive comb filter composed of a number of normalized frequency estimators in parallel is proposed to track unknown frequency and unknown amplitude of each component of an almost periodic signal. The filter consists of two coupled nonlinear differential equations respectively for updating frequencies and estimating state variables. A nonlinear autonomous equation for frequency estimation is deduced after average method is applied to the almost periodic dynamic system resulting from system decoupling by slow integral manifold. Three kinds of local stability of the autonomous system: the exponential stability of isolated equilibrium point, the semistability on center manifold, and the robustness under unknown periodic disturbance are proved. The convergence and the boundedness of amplitude estimation and signal tracking as well as the effect of parameters on the transient and steady-state performance of frequency and amplitude are investigated. Each sinusoidal component and its amplitude are accurately tracked on the condition of given intervals instead of the values of frequencies. The response speed is independent of the component amplitude. Simulation results reveal the validity of the proposed algorithm.
