Definitely a time series problem.
I'm using a book now by Bob Shumway and Dan Stoffer called "Introductory
Time Series Analysis", published by Springer. It covers both time and
frequency domains well, including problems with several inputs like the one
you describe. They also have a nice Time Series package that comes with the
book, available at the book's web site
http://anson.ucdavis.edu/~shumway/tsa.html.
You may also want to examine Peter Bloomfield's book on Fourier Analysis in
Time Series to get a good dose of frequency domain methods that this problem
might lend itself to.
