Abstract
A fractionally-spaced adaptively-equalized self-recovering digital receiver includes a fractionally-spaced adaptive filter for equalizing channel distortion which includes means for adaptively adjusting the coefficients of the fractionally-spaced filter with a self-recovering (blind) algorithm or a decision directed algorithm; means for changing the timing at which the data is sampled; means for estimating the sampling frequency offset in order to derive the optimal timing; means for synchronizing the signal resampling at the symbol rate using the statistics of the received data samples; means for evaluating the profile of the equalizer coefficients; and means for tracking carrier frequency offset.
