Vysakh,

My background is frequency synthesis, so my view may differ from others:  I view
TIE as what I've called "absolute jitter":  the deviation of a clock signal
(however derived) from an ideal (fictitious) timebase.  So, I would think you
first must recover a clock from your received data by some means (say, a CDR)
then look at the resultant zero-crossings with respect to an ideal timebase.

The short answer (about which I may not be quite correct), is that you can't
measure TIE based on data alone.  You've got to recover a clock first.
