First and second RF signals in the respective first and second channels of a multiple channel diversity receiver are processed jointly in a joint timing loop filter for baud clock recovery. The channel with the stronger signal determines the frequency of the baud clock for the channel with the weaker signal, leaving the respective PLL's to make individual phase adjustments for each channel. The first and second channels also share a skew corrector for baud clock recovery when the multipath delay between the first and second RF signals is greater than one whole baud clock period. The whole baud skew corrector computes the correlation between the first and second received signals, and if the correlation is low, shifts the first and second signals by one whole baud and recomputes the correlation. The process of shifting the first and second received signals and computing the correlation function is repeated for various whole baud shifts in accordance with a search strategy to find the best (highest) correlation.
