In this context, the Goertzel algorithm serves as the core mechanism for DTMF signal detection. It calculates discrete Fourier transform values by leveraging a two-pole IIR filter structure, enabling rapid and efficient extraction of spectral information from input signals. This algorithm—widely adopted in signal processing applications—is commonly implemented through recursive difference equations that minimize computational overhead. Its deployment spans audio recognition systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and other real-time processing scenarios where resource efficiency is critical. The algorithm's high accuracy and computational economy make it indispensable for frequency-domain analysis. Through the Goertzel algorithm, engineers achieve enhanced understanding of input signal spectral characteristics, facilitating precise signal detection and identification in embedded systems and software-defined radio implementations.
