Abstract: A two-pole notch filter is provided, which may detect the presence of an interfering frequency on the basis of its own output signal and a deactivation criterion that is based on the convergence behaviour of the complex zeros. 
The adaptive notch filter comprises a two-pole filter stage (200) connected to receive a digital input signal and to output a filtered digital output signal and a sequence representing a complex zero z 0 , an adaptive unit configured to adjust a complex zero of said two-pole filter stage on the bases of a real frequency component of an interference signal and an interference detection control unit (340) connected to receive a signal corresponding to said sequence of z 0 , said interference detection control unit comprising a deactivation criterion based on a convergence behaviour of said complex zero for bypassing said two-pole filter stage when said deactivation criterion is met. 
By cascading a plurality of corresponding filter stages multiple interferers may be tracked and detected independently.
