Abstract
A radio frequency (RF) system includes a radar monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), which includes: a phase detector including a test input port, and a monitoring input port, wherein the phase detector is configured to generate an output signal that represents a phase difference between a test signal received at the test input port and a monitoring signal received at the monitoring input port; a test signal path including at least one active component, the test signal path configured to receive a local oscillator signal and provide the local oscillator signal as the test signal to the test input port during a first measurement interval; and a passive signal path configured to receive the local oscillator signal and provide the local oscillator signal to the monitoring input port as the monitoring signal during the first measurement interval.
