Abstract

See full text

A device and method for unwrapping phase samples of a burst signal. The device generates a set of vectors including phase samples. A first mean and a first variance of the vectors is computed, and a set of unwrapped phase samples of the burst signal are computed by rotating phase samples of the vector having a smallest first variance by a first rotation amount. The set of vectors is updated based on a new phase sample and a second mean and a second variance of the updated set of vectors is computed. Differences between unwrapped phase samples and a number of phase samples included in the vector having the smallest computed second variance are computed. A next unwrapped phase sample is generated by rotating the new phase sample by a second rotation amount corresponding to a median value of the computed differences.
