The present invention discloses an apparatus and method for implementing an inverse arctangent function using piecewise linear theorem to simplify and used to transform a right-angled coordinate point X and Y to a phase angle theta of an inverse arctangent function. The present invention uses T-line combination to approach an inverse arctangent function between 0 degree to 45 degree, and determines which piecewise linear region the right-angled coordinate point is located at. A coefficient table stored in a memory is used to compute {circumflex over (theta)} which is the approximate value of the phase angle theta. The phase angle {circumflex over (theta)} between 45 degree to 360 degree can be mapped to the approximate phase angle {circumflex over (theta)} between 0 degree to 45 degree using linear combination.

The present invention is directed to the use of a DDS to generate a high purity reference signal with high frequency resolution by switching a frequency tuning word (FTW) between particular values for particular time durations to produce two or more closely spaced frequencies that appear at the DDS output as a single frequency. Given a DDS switching between F1 and F2 such that F1 is present for time T1 and F2 is present for time T2, with the total period of the repeating pattern being T=T1+T2, in order for the output of the DDS to produce a single high-purity frequency that is the time-weighted average of the alternating frequencies, the condition |F1−F2|<<π / T must be satisfied. The time-weighted average frequency Favg=(T1·F1+T2·F2) / (T+T2). By an appropriate choice of T1 and T2, Favg can be set to any frequency between these two frequencies.

In the process of designing the reaction spectrum through frequency domain method fitting, a multi-phase spectrum matrix is mainly used, a single and invariant phase spectrum is not used any more, a complex Fourier phase spectrum is used for each iteration, and the influence of the random phase spectrum of the artificial wave on the convergence precision of a final fitting result is also reduced.
