Multi-signal extension of adaptive frequency tracking algorithms

Adaptive tracking of sinusoidal signal components with time-varying amplitudes and frequencies presents a great interest in many engineering applications. In many cases, the frequency components of interest are present in more than one signal. So we propose, in this paper, a simple but efficient approach to extend existing algorithms to track frequency components simultaneously in several signals. Computer simulations and experiments on real signals demonstrate the potential of this approach in terms of estimation variance, convergence speed, and the capability to extract a frequency component common to several signals.
