Two or more periodic signals with identical periods or, equivalently, identical frequencies (usually electromagnetic in nature) are out of phase if their cycles are not synchronized.
Whether the term is hyphenated or not depends on its use:
- "the out-of-phase signal caused distortion"
- "the two signals are out of phase with each other"
