Abstract
A receiver is an ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee)-receiver and comprises a staggered quadrature amplitude modulator for providing an staggered quadrature amplitude modulated (SQAM) signal from a received signal; a data-aided carrier tracking loop (CTL) and a data-aided symbol timing recovery (STR) loop. The data-aided STR loop operates such that the data-aided STR loop is now insensitive to carrier phase offset.
