Frequency domain modal parameter identification methods have several attractive properties as compared with the time domain methods except for the limitation of low-order-and-narrow-band per analysis. As rule of thumb, a limit of less than ten modes has been observed for several popular frequency domain algorithms. However, this paper will show, that with a proper and thorough use of the orthogonal polynomials in the frequency domain, the number of modes per analysis can be increased to as high as 75 in a comparatively wide frequency range of interest while still retaining numerical stability. Both numerical example (75 modes in 5–1000 Hz) and experimental data analysis (56 modes in 50–5000 Hz) are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this innovative approach.

A modal parameter identification software named as N-Broband is developed in VC++ platform. The software is suitable for EMA and OMA with broband identification feature. Meanwhile it also includes narrow band and selected band modal parameter identification methods. Correlation analysis between experiment and FEA can be performed in N-Broband. The validation of N-Broband is carried out by Test.Lab modal analysis software. The result coincides with Test.Lab very well, which indicates that the developed software can be used in modal analysis of real structure.

In this study, the modal identification methods based on time and frequency domain are summarized, and the working condition, identified accuracy and some fundamental idea of these approaches are discussed. By comparing the characteristic of different identification method, the identification technique based on ambient excitation is promising in bridges since it is difficult to measure the excitation information. Some challenge and key issues of modal identification of bridges are pointed out in the last part.
