ABSTRACT:
A timing signal generator includes a demodulator for an input modulated signal to provide first and second baseband signals having a quadrature relation relative to each other. A converter is used to convert the first and second baseband signals into angle data representing a phase, and a calculator is used to calculate a difference between the phase represented by current angle data and the phase represented by previous angle data, preceding the current angle data by a 1-symbol interval. The calculator outputs data representative of the calculated phase difference. A further converter converts the calculator output data into a binary reference signal responsive to which of predetermined divided regions contains a point corresponding to the calculated difference data. Also included is a generator for generating a symbol timing signal in synchronism with the binary reference signal.
