Abstract
A computer-implemented method for determining whether the noise floor of a sensor is deviated from an expected value, comprising the steps of: receiving a sensor signal from a sensor; determining a plurality of power spectral densities from a plurality of successive frames of samples of the sensor signal, each of the plurality of power spectral densities being determined from a respective frame of the plurality of successive frames, each power spectral density being comprised of a plurality of frequency bins, each frequency bin being associated with a power of the respective frame at the frequency of the respective frequency bin, wherein each successive frame of the plurality of successive frames differs by at least one sample; identifying a minimum power of the plurality of power spectral densities; and determining whether the minimum power exceeds a threshold value.
