Abstract:
Systems and methods for improvement in transmission antenna design and, more particularly, for rapid determine phase determination of incoming signals are described herein. In some embodiments, a phase detection system is described. The phase detection system includes a phase detection apparatus and a control system. The phase detection apparatus includes a phase shifting element and a phase detector element. The phase shifting element is configured to phase-shift a reference signal multiple times per detection cycle. The phase detector element is configured to compare an incoming signal to multiple phases of the phase-shifted reference signal during the detection cycle, and generate an output indicating a relative phase difference between the incoming signal and the phase-shifted reference signal for each of the multiple phases. The control system is configured to determine a relative phase of the incoming signal based, at least in part, on the outputs.

Claim (Index 14):
The phase detection apparatus of  claim 13 , further comprising:\n a phase shifting component including circuitry adapted to phase-shift the reference signal,\n wherein the multiple phases are generated by sending the reference signal through one or more switches, and \n wherein each switch is coupled to at least three phase shifters.
