Carrier synchronization appropriate for alm nfc data transmission

A method for carrier synchronization in near field communications, comprising:

• receiving, by a first circuit of a first device, a near field communication signal comprising an aggregated broadcast carrier from a second device and a locally-generated carrier from the first device;
• converting, by a second circuit of the first device, a Cartesian representation of the aggregated broadcast carrier to a polar representation;
• removing, by a third circuit of the first device, an offset from the polar representation of the aggregated broadcast carrier to generate an intermediate signal;
• converting, by a fourth circuit of the first device, a Cartesian representation of the intermediate signal into a polar representation;
• and
• controlling a local carrier generator, by the first device, with an output phase signal of the polar representation of the intermediate signal from the fourth circuit.
