-The DPG GUI communicates with the GR flow graphs using the IP/UDP protocol. This decision to separate the project into two parts that communicate over the IP network was made because it is not easy to extend the graphical interface of GRC without interfering with the sophisticated multi-threaded architecture of GR. Furthermore, this allows to have multiple correctly configure flow graph on disk and to choose which one to run and display on the graphical interface, instead of having a single flow graph whose parameters need to be changed each time. As a side effect, in theory this setup allows to have one computer running the graphical interface, and another remote machine running just the flow graph.

 As receivers and transmitter devices for the SDR setup two USRP B210 devices from Ettus Research were used. Some technical specifications are shown in \tabref{tab:usrp-specs}. GR provides off the shelf blocks that interface with the official API provided from Ettus Research.

-To compute the empirical bit error rate (BER) of the setup, the data has to be framed by the transmitter and the bitstream needs to be synchronized on the receiver side. The structure of a data packet used in the implementation is shown in \figref{fig:dataframe}. A frame begins with an user specified \(k\)-byte preamble, that in the current implementation serves as synchronization pattern. Another use case for the preamble sequence could be to introduce channel estimation pilot symbols. Following the preamble are 4 bytes encoded using a (31, 26) Hamming code (plus 1 padding bit), that contain metadata about the packet, namely payload ID and payload length. Because the payload length in bytes is encoded in 21 bits, the theoretical maximum payload size is 2 MiB, which together with 32 possible unique IDs gives a maximum data transfer with unique frame headers of 64 MiB. These constraints are a result of decisions made to keep the implementation simple. % TODO: explain why its simpler this way

 \subsection{Modulation}
 
 GR provides a constellation modulator block, that already implements several standard constellations (QPSK and 16ary-QAM being of interest for us). The block also already integrates a root raised cosine filter, whose phase bandwidth (roll-off factor) can be given as parameter; in all flow graphs the roll off factor is \(\alpha = 0.35\).

 \subsection{Envelope detector}
 
-What is here referred to as envelope detector has the purpose of synchronizing the symbols and equalizing the input signal amplitude. This is accomplished in GRC using two blocks: a polyphase clock sync and a constant modulus adaptive (CMA) filter equalizer. The input signal for the envelope detector has 4 samples per symbol, while the output has only one sample per symbol. The choice of the CMA equalizer later turned out to be a mistake in the QAM flow graphs, as it only works for envelope with a constant amplitude. In the latest version least mean square decision-directed (LMS-DD) equalizers have been used.

+%TODO: Figure
 To implement in GR what was discussed in section \ref{sec:phasecorr} two blocks shown in \figref{fig:phasecorr-blocks} were used: a correlator estimator block, and a custom block. The former essentially implements the first 3 of the steps discussed at the end of section \ref{sec:phasecorr}. The correlator estimator block is given a sequence of samples, and when the cross correlation between them and the input stream is higher than a certain threshold (90\% of the amplitude of a perfect autocorrelation), it produces a ``tag'' in the output stream, that contains the phase estimate.
 
 Tags are GR's way of working with metadata that is attached to a sample. Internally tags are just polymorphic data structures containing a number indicating the absolute offset (in samples), and a pair of arbitrary values called ``key'' and ``value''. Tags are passed on from one block to the next like sample streams (unless the block specifies to do otherwise).
