<p>A rectangular to phase converter (201) includes a first converter circuit (201B) which limits signals to a predetermined level. A phase selector (259) selects a relative phase from the limited signals. According to one aspect of the invention, input rectangular coordinate signals are mapped to the first quadrant in a first quadrant mapping circuit (201A) before the first quadrant signals are limited and the relative phase signal is returned to the original quadrant by an original quadrant mapping circuit (260).</p> |
