Abstract
In a receiver, an analog-to-digital converter is adapted to sample a distorted analog signal to provide a plurality of distorted digital symbols separated in time by a particular interval. In an equalizer, taps are provided with variable multiplying coefficients which sequentially multiply the distorted digital symbols to provide undistorted digital symbols. A timing control network is responsive to variation in one of the multiplying coefficients to control the timing of the converter and hence the duration of the particular interval.
