Introduction In real-world DSP systems—embedded sensing, instrumentation, audio processing, vibration monitoring, and RF-adjacent pipelines—engineers routinely face narrowband tonal interference, harmonic spurs, and frequency-drifting noise components contaminating time-domain measurements. Typical workflows rely on manual spectrum inspection and heuristic tuning: visually identifying peaks, guessing problematic frequencies, and iteratively adjusting filters until the output “looks cleaner.” While workable for simple stationary tones, this approach becomes unreliable when interference drifts over time, appears intermittently, or overlaps with broadband noise. ...
