A modified timing synchronization algorithm for QPSK in digital receiver

A modified timing recovery method is designed for QPSK demodulation. On the basis of Gardner interpolation theory about timing synchronization, the complex interpolation filter is replaced with two-stage cascade filters. Taking the QPSK signal for instance, the system is built and simulated, which proves that it has good performance.
