Frequency domain decomposition

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The frequency domain decomposition (FDD) is an output-only system identification technique popular in civil engineering, in particular in structural health monitoring. As an output-only algorithm, it is useful when the input data is unknown. FDD is a modal analysis technique which generates a system realization using the frequency response given (multi-)output data.[1][2]

Algorithm

[edit]
  1. Estimate the power spectral density matrix at discrete frequencies .
  2. Do a singular value decomposition of the power spectral density, i.e. where is a unitary matrix holding the singular vectors , is the diagonal matrix holding the singular values .
  3. For an degree of freedom system, then pick the dominating peaks in the power spectral density using whichever technique you wish (or manually). These peaks correspond to the mode shapes.[1]
    1. Using the mode shapes, an input-output system realization can be written.
