A new method is proposed for estimating a single complex sinusoid and its parameters (frequency and amplitude) from measurements corrupted by white noise. This method is called the ECKF-SVD method, which is derived by applying an extended complex Kalman filter (ECKF) to a nonlinear stochastic system whose state variables consist of the AR coefficient (a function of frequency) and a sample of the original signal. Proof of the stability is given in the case of a single sinusoid. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed ECKF-SVD method is effective for estimating a single complex sinusoid and its frequency under a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In addition, the amplitude estimation by means of the ECKF-SVD method is also discussed.
