ABSTRACT:
A system for extracting the fundamental frequency or pitch of complex waves such as voice, musical instruments or other audio signals. Separate channels extract the fundamental frequency component when it is present in successively wider frequency bands, the frequency intervals between which are equal or less than an octave. Control signals generated in response to the presence of the fundamental components in any lower frequency channel inhibit each of the higher frequency channels thereby reducing the possibility of an overtone being detected as a fundamental frequency component of the complex wave.
