This paper investigates the contribution on the sine-wave frequency estimation returned by the interpolated discrete Fourier transform (IpDFT) algorithm due to a small amplitude interharmonic component located more than one bin apart the fundamental component. An analytical expression for the frequency estimation error is derived assuming that a maximum sidelobe decay (MSD) window is employed and its accuracy is verified through computer simulations. Based on the derived expression some useful remarks are finally drawn.
