A free-running sample rate converter and a large spanning, non-linear pre-equalizer are employed before a timing recovery loop within a wireless receiver chain, while forward and feedback equalization after the timing recovery loop (at and around the input of a sync detector) is also retained. A channel identifier produces a channel estimate from the PN511 training sequence within the received wireless signals, with the pre-equalizer employing the resulting channel estimate to equalize the received signals being passed to the timing recovery loop, improving the signal quality for carrier and timing recovery and decoding to increase the probability of successful decoding while enabling the use of fast tracking forward and feedback equalizers for decoding.
