Abstract
Embodiments include methods and apparatus for performing symbol timing synchronization for a symbol-bearing signal. The symbol-bearing signal is sampled to produce a plurality of symbol samples. First-direction interpolation processes are performed on the plurality of symbol samples in a first temporal direction, where the first temporal direction is a direction from a first sampling time towards a second sampling time. In addition, second-direction interpolation processes are performed on the symbol samples in a second temporal direction, where the second temporal direction is a direction from the second sampling time towards the first sampling time, resulting in a set of interpolated symbol samples.
