By combining calculation details that are specific to the harmonic balance method, the asymptotic numerical method, and the normal form style parametrisation for invariant manifolds, a complete procedure that can cope with single-mode reduction is detailed. Introducing harmonic decomposition in the process allows for a different treatment of the temporal information of the solution, which comes with advantages as compared to normal form expansions based on polynomial expansions. The computation proceeds with two nested loops on both the harmonics and the polynomial degree expansion. A decisive advantage of the procedure is its ability to compute a new expansion from a known solution, which allows the derivation of amplitude-dependent piecewise reduced order models (ROMs), together with an integrated procedure that can switch from the invariant manifolds computation attached to either fixed points or limit cycles. Once the validity limit of a first expansion is met, the procedure can restart from a point where convergence is reached and produce a new ROM. This feature has the potential to overcome the well-known limitations of asymptotic expansions associated with the parametrisation method for invariant manifolds, and is derived here only for conservative systems. The whole analysis also clearly establishes the links existing between the normal form approach and computations based on the harmonic balance combined with the asymptotic numerical method. Examples of increasing complexity, starting from a Duffing equation, a two-degree-of-freedom system and a finite element beam model, are analysed, and comparisons with existing techniques are provided.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50658,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 109708"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145995147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, traditional estimation methods struggle to accurately estimate channels polluted by noise and require a significant number of pilot signals. Currently, Orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) is widely used for channel estimation, but it is susceptible to noise interference and lacks self-adaptive sparsity. In underwater acoustic communication, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is often low, and the actual sparsity is unknown, necessitating a more effective estimation method with self-adaptive sparsity. This paper proposes an adaptive simultaneous forecast orthogonal matching pursuit (ASFOMP) for estimating the underwater acoustic channel. ASFOMP, which is improved from OMP, incorporates a forecast step and a self-adaptation function. In the forecast step, the selection of the current tap is determined not only by the correlation between the residual and the atom at the present step, but also by predicting the residual magnitude over several subsequent iterations after selecting that atom. This mechanism helps prevent the erroneous selection of taps that may be influenced by noise or interference. In the self-adaptation function, the residual gradient directly reflects the gain effect of the current newly added tap on channel compensation. When the residual gradient is very small, it indicates that the main taps of the channel have been estimated. Therefore, using the residual gradient as an indicator for adaptive channel estimation can effectively solve the problem of unknown number of channel taps. In the Rayleigh channel case, when SNR is 10 dB, the channel error of ASFOMP is only -51.474 dB, and its BER is 4.218%, which is superior to other methods. Compared to OMP, it reduces the channel estimation error by 39.973 dB and decreases the BER by 0.277%. In the Bellhop-generated channel case, it also achieves performance gains, with channel error reduced by 35.393 dB, and corresponding BER reduction of 0.304%.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50658,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 109752"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145957144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
