Abstract: An oscillating signal in an oscillator is caused to phase shift toward the phase of an input signal coupled to the oscillating signal. The resonant frequency of the oscillator is about equal to an integer multiple of the frequency of the input signal. The input signal may be generated in a pulse generator to have an input pulse duration less than or equal to that of the oscillating signal. The oscillator circuit may be used as a filter to filter pulse width variations or to filter jitter from a reference clock. The oscillator circuit may also serve as a buffer by amplifying the input signal. Phase interpolation can be obtained by coupling at least one input signal with at least one oscillating signal.

Abstract: A system for determining the scan type of a signal, such as a radar signal, includes a scan detector, a transformer (e.g., an FFT algorithm), a correlator, and a decision block. The signal is received and processed by the scan detector. The scan detector provides an envelope signal, representing the scan type of the received signal. The envelope signal is transformed, typically from a time domain signal to a frequency domain signal, by any of several processes including a Fourier transform, a Laplace transform, an FFT, or a DFT. The transformed envelope signal is compared to several scan data sets by the correlator. Each scan data set represents a particular scan type. If the decision block determines that the comparison between the transformed envelope signal and a scan data set meets (or exceeds) a degree of similarity, the scan type of the received signal is determined to be the scan type of that scan data set.
