  • Patent number: 11748216
    Abstract: The voter circuit and method determines a voted output among plural inputs each carrying circular data. To supply the voted output, a statistical average (e.g., mean or median) is computed by grouping the plural inputs into pairs, and for each pair generating a minimum angular difference by selecting the minimum of (a) the absolute difference between the pairs of inputs, and (b) the conjugate of the absolute difference between the pairs of inputs. The voted output is a statistical average generated from the minimum angular difference.
