TLDR
In this paper, a six-port phase/frequency discriminator (SPFD) was proposed for direct demodulation of various digitally modulated signals at microwave/millimeter wave frequencies.Abstract:
A novel approach is proposed for direct demodulation of various digitally modulated signals at microwave/millimeter wave frequencies using a six-port phase/frequency discriminator (SPFD). The proposed six-port direct digital receiver is capable of handling PSK and QAM as well as their varieties. Preliminary measurements on demodulation of DBPSK signals at 26.5 GHz, 33 GHz and 40 GHz have revealed great potential of this new receiver. >read more

The Six-Port in Modern Society
TL;DR: The six-port concept is based on the additive superposition of the two RF input signals using four different relative phases leading to constructive or destructive interaction, and the resulting signals are directly downconverted to baseband by diode circuits operated in detector or mixing mode.

TL;DR: In this article, a dual-tone calibration of a six-port direct digital MM-wave receiver using two carriers with closely spaced frequencies is described. But the calibration procedure is fully automatic and can be implemented in a system capable of capturing the output waveforms of a 6-port.
