Abstract
A simple algorithm for detection of timing error of a synchronous, band-limited, BPSK or QPSK data stream is proposed. The algorithm requires only two samples per symbol for its operation. One of the two samples is also used for the symbol decision. Derivation of the s curve reveals a sinusoidal shape.

Digital Coherent Optical Receivers: Algorithms and Subsystems

TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical analysis of the dual-polarization constant modulus algorithm is presented, where the control surfaces several different equalizer algorithms are derived, including the decision-directed, trained, and the radially directed equalizer for both polarization division multiplexed quadriphase shift keyed (PDM-QPSK) and 16 level quadrature amplitude modulation (PDm-16-QAM).

Digital filter and square timing recovery

TL;DR: A digital algorithm is proposed that can be implemented very efficiently even at high data rates and allows free-running sampling oscillators and a novel planar filtering method that prevents synchronization hangups.

The modified Cramer-Rao bound and its application to synchronization problems

TL;DR: The modified Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) is introduced which, like the true CRB, is a lower bound to the error variance of any parameter estimator.
