The correct word to say what you mean is POLARITY, NOT PHASE.  Phase is 
a continuously valued function, and has the units of degrees. Polarity 
is the word that describes whether the waveform is inverted or not. 
Changing the phase of a signal is VERY different from changing its 
polarity.

What you're asking for is a very good idea. Circuits that sense which 
part of the signal is hotter and reverses it if necessary to keep the 
hottest part on top (to prevent carrier cutoff) have been around since 
at least the 50s.
