ABSTRACT:
A variable phase shifter and comparator useable, for example, in a scalloping suppression system within a V.H.F. Omni Range (VOR) aircraft bearing determining system. The digital phase shifter-comparator network is employed to cause a phase of the reference signal to follow a phase of the variable phase signal. The phase shifter is comprised of two counters and the phase comparator is comprised of a bistable multivibrator. The delayed reference signal is the output of the system, and an analog rate controller is employed to limit the rate at which the reference signal can follow the variable phase signal.
