title = "Maximum likelihood clockless feedback phase recovery for MPSK signals",
abstract = "For the symbol timing recovery techniques which are susceptible to carrier phase offset, clockless phase recovery is necessary in advance. In this paper, we propose a clockless nondata-aided (NDA) feedback phase error detector (PED) for M-ary phase-shift keying (MPSK) signal. Its derivation is given based on maximum likelihood (ML) criterion. The clockless NDA (Mth-power) PED can also be generalized with a design parameter 0≤ m ≤M to improve performance at low SNR. The open-loop S-curves and closed-loop phase error variances of these PEDs are given with extensive simulations. Results show that the S-curve of clockless Mth-power PED is robust to signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Its phase error variance is investigated with excellent performance under different shaping roll-off factors and parameter m. We also analyze the clockless decision-directed (DD) PED which may not be a good choice for over-sampled signals due to its unstable equilibrium point of S-curve.",
