Abstract
A signal processor and a tracking method of a signal search range are provided which can read out precisely a specific spectrum having frequency varied. A signal processor includes an FFT computation portion to compute spectrum data by fast-Fourier-transforming an input signal, a spectrum selection portion to select a specific spectrum, a spectrum search portion to search sequentially the specific spectrum selected by the spectrum selection portion from the spectrum data computed by the FFT computation portion, and a search range computation portion to compute the search range of the spectrum searched by the spectrum search portion based on the frequency of the specific spectrum, in which the search range computation portion computes the search range based on the varied frequency of the specific spectrum and makes it track the varied specific spectrum, when the frequency of the specific spectrum varies.
