Abstract

The present invention provides an approach for quadrature signal generation, which does not require orthogonal reference signals or nearly orthogonal reference signals as an input or given condition. The techniques provided herein can utilize a reference phase shift less than 90° but greater than 0°, along with an inversion to create orthogonal signals. The techniques provided here reduce the number of critical manipulations required from a hardware perspective.
