The invention relates to a phase error detector which generates a phase correction signal in such a manner that the phase characteristic curve thereof does not have any undesired zero positions and comprises a finite steepness in the angular area around the engaging point. The inventive phase error detector (PFD) calculates the phase correction signal (S) according to the detected decision domain in accordance with a number of predetermined calculating methods. The phase error detector (PFD) attains such an allocation between the decision domains of the complex QAM single state plane and the individual calculating methods such that the static phase characteristic curve thereof does not have any additional zero positions apart from the engaging point.
