An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a transmit antenna and a receive antenna. Signal bursts may be transmitted by the transmit antenna. A phase shifter may be toggled between a first state that applies a first phase shift and a second state that applies a second phase shift to the signal bursts.

A receive path may receive first reflected signals while the phase shifter is in the first state and second reflected signals while in the second state. The first and second reflected signals may be used to cancel the effects of on-chip leakage or DC offset to recover a signal-of-interest associated with reflection of the signal bursts off an external object. The signal-of-interest may be used to detect a range to the external object.
