Well, there are also problems with swept sines of course ... ;)
Other methods are e.g.
- with MLS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_length_sequence) - I
think there is also an mls example in the iem_tab library.
-Least Square Error methods (see system identification example in the
adaptive library)
- with noise (more energy than in a dirac impulse)
- auto-, crosscorrelation methods
- ...
