9.3 Functional Description
The frequency hop auto-tune module applies a configurable cyclic frequency-hopping algorithm, such that on each measurement cycle a different sampling frequency is used. Several preconfigured frequencies are implemented in turn during consecutive measurement cycles.
Where ‘n’ frequencies are included in the cycle, an ‘n’-point median filter is applied to the output data.
To perform auto-tuning, the signals measured on each sensor node are recorded for each selected frequency. When one frequency shows greater variance than the others, that frequency is removed from the measurement sequence and replaced with another.
