Apparatus and methods for phase tracking an oscillatory signal are provided. In one arrangement, an input signal is received. First and second reference oscillatory signals are received at the frequency of a target frequency component of the input signal. The first and second reference oscillatory signals are phase shifted relative to each other. Weights of a weighted sum of the first and second reference oscillatory signals are iteratively varied to match the weighted sum to the input signal. The weights of the matched weighted sum are used to provide real time estimates of the phase of the target frequency component of the input signal.
