  • Two-way dual-tone methods and systems for synchronizing remote modules
    Patent number: 11228821
    Abstract: Methods and systems of correcting operation of multiple modules are described. The methods include generating a first dual-tone signal in a first module and transmitting the first dual-tone signal to a second module. A second dual-tone signal is generated in the second module and transmitted to the first module. The first module determines a first phase of the received second dual-tone signal and the second module determines a second phase of the received first dual-tone signal. Operation of one or both of the first and second modules is corrected based on the determined first phase and the determined second phase.
