These constraints are a result of decisions made to keep the implementation simple. On the receiver side the bitstream is synchronized using a XOR correlator. To find the synchronization delay \(d\) (in samples) the XOR correlator computes the binary cross correlation \begin{equation} \label{eqn:binary-xcorr} |
