Gardner timing sync loop quetion

GNU Radio
#1

Hi all,
I am designing a 2 order Gardner timing sync loop(with 1 order PI loop
filter) for QAM64.
As Best’s PLL book metioned, timing sync loop’s parameter can be
calculated by using PLL theory.
Now I need calculate the PI loop filter’s factor K1(P gain) and K2(I
gain). According PLL theory, we can get them from Wn(nature freq)
Kd(phase detector gain) Ko(NCO gain).
I can get Kd from open loop simulate, and Ko equals to 1
Wn can get from BL(noise bandwidth).
My quetion is how to define BL, anyone can tell me how to calculate it
from PPM(ADC’s freq offset)?

Thanks
Tiankun

Take a look at this:

I don’t think it exactly answers your question, but might be helpful.
Also,
we have the gr::blocks::control_loop class that you can inherit from to
make this easier for you to use. See the costas_loop_cc block for an
example of how.
