Fundamental Frequency Estimation

As mentioned in §6.11.2 above, it is advisable to estimate the fundamental frequency of vibration (often called ``F0'') in order that the partial overtones are well resolved while maintaining maximum time resolution for estimating the decay time-constant.

Below is a summary of the F0 estimation method used in calibrating loop filters with good results [474]:

The F0 estimate so formed is sufficiently accurate for purposes of calibrating a peak tracker for decay-rate estimation. (The F0 value is only used to set the FFT window length in the STFT to four nominal periods under the window, so it is not critical.)
