Abstract

This invention provides a system which monitors the phase error signal generated by a phase tracking loop. The system includes a first circuit for averaging the phase error signal thus generating an uncorrected phase error, and a second signal for integrating the phase error to generate a corrected phase signal. The two generated signals are added together to yield a total phase error signal.
