| Summary: | The tree sway frequency is an important part of the dynamic properties of trees. In order to obtain trees sway frequency in wind, a method of tracking and measuring the sway frequency of leafless deciduous trees by adaptive tracking window based on MOSSE was proposed. Firstly, an adaptive tracking window is constructed for the observed target. Secondly, the tracking method based on Minimum Output Sum Of Squared Error Filter (MOSSE) is used to track tree sway. Thirdly, Fast Fourier transform was used to analyze the horizontal sway velocity of the target area on the trees, and the sway frequency was determined. Finally, comparing the power spectral densities (PSDs) of the x axis acceleration measured by the accelerometer and PSDs of the x axis velocity measured by the video, the fundamental sway frequency measured by the accelerometer is equal to the fundamental sway frequency measured by video. The results show that the video-based method can be used successfully for measuring the sway frequency of leafless deciduous trees.
