A digital data receiving arrangement, which adapts itself to channel variations of a transmission system, comprises an adaptive receiver stage (11), having an adaptive equalizer and at least one sampler, and producing, at a certain rate, complex samples yk from the input signal x(t), a decision circuit (14) supplying detected complex samples ak and an adaptive timing recovery circuit (12) determining the optimal sampling instant by minimizing a quadratic function J which represents the difference between yk and ak. The adaptive timing recovery circuit comprises a device (121) for shaping a primary clock signal in accordance with a secondary clock signal, whose period is twice the period of the primary clock and whose consecutive ascending edges are spaced in time by T1 and T2, said secondary clock producing alternately two sampling instants tau and tau + DELTA tau . By minimizing the function J, on the basis of the difference determined for two instants tau k and tau k+ DELTA tau , the control of the timing recovery is defined for the consecutive sampling instants tau k and tau k+1.
