  • Abstract
    A new symbol timing estimator for generalized MSK signals is proposed. It is based on the squaring algorithm and has a feedforward structure. The proposed timing estimator is fully-digital and is suitable for implementation in software radios. The performance in AWGN channel is compared with the modified Cramer-Rao bound and that of the ML algorithm. The proposed timing estimator is found to have a performance close to that of the ML algorithm, but with a lower implementation complexity
