SENSOR ARRAY INDUCED PHASE ANGLE CALCULATION BASED ON MIXED SIGNALS

摘要

A sensor array employs a parameter to induce a time-varying phase angle phi on an optical signal that comprises a phase generated carrier based on a single frequency. The time-varying phase angle phi is calculated through employment of a plurality of samples obtained approximately at a time ts, where the plurality of samples are based on a plurality of mixed signals output from a mixer component that employs an input signal based on the optical signal of the sensory array.
