Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for determining the symbol timing and carrier frequency of a digitized input signal is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises the steps of computing a temporally varying magnitude of the input signal, determining a frequency domain representation of the computed magnitude of the input signal, identifying a spectral component at a symbol frequency f.sub.s away from a DC component of the frequency domain representation of the computed magnitude of the input signal, the spectral component having a magnitude and a phase, and determining the symbol timing phase of the input signal from the phase of the spectral component.
