As I said for coherent those initial phases need to be the same, or they need to be sync'd. If they cannot be sync'd of course they are not coherent, or if just a couple of them you can do difference detection or even sync on receive. If you have a lot of them like in the sun or lightbulb then the random deltas makes it clearly incoherent. And for two waves it's exactly as I said in my response. There's a lot of implementation and specific details, but the concept is that simple | |
