Abstract

A fast frequency measurement method based on the pulse coincidence of two regular independent pulse trains and rational approximations in the number theory is presented. A numeric condition derived from number theory to stop the measurement process is deduced. This measurement method has application in many practical tasks of Mechatronics and Telecommunications where is possible to convert a parameter to frequency, and is necessary to measure fast changes in the parameter. Results of numeric simulation of the frequency measurement process are presented.
