Iterative Parameter Estimation for Signal Models Based on Measured Data.

This paper studies the modeling of multi-frequency signals based on measured data. With the use of the hierarchical identification principle and the iterative search, several iterative parameter estimation algorithms are derived for the signal models with the known frequencies and the unknown frequencies. For the multi-frequency signals, the hierarchical estimation algorithms are derived by means of parameter decomposition. Through the decomposition, the original optimization problem is transformed into the combination of the nonlinear optimization and the linear optimization problems. The simulation results show that the proposed hierarchical algorithms have better performance than the overall estimation algorithms without parameter decomposition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
