Abstract
A method for communicating between a first radio frequency communications device including a first local oscillator and a second radio frequency communications device including a second local oscillator includes generating phase values based on samples of a received signal. Each of the phase values indicates an instantaneous phase of the received signal. The method includes unwrapping the phase values to generate unwrapped phase values. The method includes generating frequency offset estimates based on the unwrapped phase values. The method includes generating an average frequency offset estimate based on the unwrapped phase values. The method includes wrapping the average frequency offset estimate to generate a residual frequency offset estimate. The method includes adjusting the first local oscillator based on the residual frequency offset estimate, thereby reducing a frequency offset between the first local oscillator and the second local oscillator.
