Abstract
A phase synchronisation method is proposed for beam-scanning
control, utilising a newly identified phase synchronisation pattern.
The proposed method provides more flexible control compared to
conventional methods, even in noisy, non-ideal environments, as
confirmed by systematic simulations and mathematical analysis.
