A sampled signal is processed by periodically sampling an input signal to obtain a set of samples. A first detection process is performed using the set of samples to obtain a first decision and a first error; the first detection process is associated with a first phase offset. A second detection process is performed using the set of samples to obtain a second decision and a second error; the second detection process is associated with a second phase offset. Either the first decision or the second decision is selected based at least in part on the first error and the second error.
