Phase discriminator with a phase compensation circuit

摘要

A differential phase discriminator includes a phase compensation circuit to compensate for timing drift and error for recovering timing information in a digital phase lock loop. The differential phase discriminator uses a differential phase detector to compute the phase difference of two consecutive frequency domain signal samples. The phase compensation circuit determines a phase correction term by computing the difference between the absolute values of the real and imaginary parts of a frequency domain signal sample. A weighting factor is computed by adjusting the sum of the absolute values of the real and imaginary parts of the frequency domain signal sample with a ratio adjustment factor. A phase compensation value is then computed by multiplying the phase correction term by the weighting factor. The phase compensation value is added to the uncorrected output of the differential phase detector.
