Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a novel structure of the joint frequency-phase carrier recovery loop for all-digital QAM satellite receivers. Unlike the existing methods, the initial phase offset is recovered through the utilization of a frequency recovery loop. By introducing a non-zero-mean input to the stop-and-go controller, the steady-state estimation variance is greatly reduced. This method is especially useful in the low SNR region
