Joint estimation of the framer index and the frequency offset in an optical communication system are described among various other features. A transmitter can transmit data frames using pilot and framer symbols. A receiver can estimate the framer index and frequency offset using the pilot and framer symbols, and identify the beginning of a header portion of a data frame. The estimation can be performed to compensate for delays such as half-symbol delays and differential group delays. By identifying the beginning of the header portion of a data frame while compensating for certain delays, the receiver can synchronize, with less error, the data transmitted by the transmitter and the data it received.
