Abstract
A receiver, system and method for providing symbol timing recovery that allows for inexpensive and low-complexity synchronization for communication systems. A receiver receives a signal including digital data in the form of packets that is transmitted from a transmitter. The receiver uses information contained in each of the packets to align a phase of the receiver clock with a phase of the transmitter clock. The receiver further controls a sampling device such that the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components are sampled at an optimum sample rate and at an optimum instance of time without requiring a numerically controlled oscillator or voltage controlled oscillator.
