Abstract

A method and apparatus for low power timing recovery is provided. In an embodiment, different gains are used to estimate timing errors during different portions of the data packet. In an embodiment, timing errors are only estimated during known sequences of a data packet. In further embodiments, errors are initially estimated independently in a first portion of the data packet in order to determine a phase shift between the errors. In the second portion of the data packet, the total error is derived from one estimated error and the phase shift between the errors.
