The reconstruction of multi-turn curling tracks is a big challenge for the drift chamber of the COMET [1] experiment. A method of deterministic annealing filter that implements a global competition between hits from different turns is introduced. This method assigns the detector measurements to the candidate track based on the weighted mean of fitting quality on different turns. We present here the study of multi-turn track fitting based on the simulated tracks. We found that the algorithm can successfully distinguish the hits from different turns.
