Normalized Direct Frequency Estimation Technique

Table 3 shows the detected tones with NDFET implemented on the ADSP-2101. For the implementation, we used an adaptive step size over each interval of samples, , with . As shown on Table 3, estimation errors are very high since this algorithm is not robust in the presence of noise. Although NDFET is much faster than the Goertzel algorithm, it does not meet the standard 2(a).
