Abstract:
A method of determining a phase misalignment between a first signal generated from a first signal path and a second signal generated from a second signal path may include obtaining multiple samples of the first signal proximate to when the first signal crosses zero wherein the first signal can be approximated as linear; obtaining multiple samples of the second signal proximate to when the second signal crosses zero wherein the first signal can be approximated as linear; based on the multiple samples of the first signal, approximating a first time at which the first signal crosses zero; based on the multiple samples of the second signal, approximating a second time at which the second signal crosses zero; and determining the phase misalignment between the first signal and the second signal based on a difference between the first time and the second time.
