### Gardner Timing Recovery for Repeated Symbols

I am implementing the Gardner Timing Error Detection algorithm for a QPSK signal. I understand the concepts behind it but I am curious as to what effect repeated signals can have on the phase lock. ...

### Isn't Gardner's algorithm and Early-Late gate the same thing?

I'm reading about some symbol synchronization methods and I find these two (ELG and Gardner) very similar. Early-Late gate takes 2 samples, one at $t=T-\delta$ and the other at $t=T+\delta$, then ...

### Symbol timing synchronization using a high sampling rate

Symbol timing synchronization usually relies on a digital PLL procedure, an iterative process that relies on detecting a timing error signal that is used to control an interpolation filter that in its ...

### Eye pattern construction and interpretation

I have read some text about the eye pattern (or eye diagram), but I do not understand how should I read it. The wikipedia definition of it is this one: In telecommunication, an eye pattern, also ...

### Fractional spaced equalizer + timing (clock) recovery

I am trying to figure out how timing recovery is used after equalization (or, being more correct, when the equalizer is in the timing recovery loop), having a T/2 fractional spaced equalizer and using ...

### Emulating a Variable Delay

I am trying to emulate a satellite link where the delay time between the satellite and ground station changes over time due to the satellite's motion. I plan do this by converting to the frequency ...

### Role of Power Metric and LPF in AGC(Automatic Gain Controller)

I am trying to understand & implement simple toy AGC system . Few questions while reading about it, 1) How POWER metric came into picture, why not other metric like absolute value to control ...
