and auto-correction for R820T tuners.
-Updated TunerModel and TunerViewPanel to add 2 new columns to
display the current tuner's PPM setting and (when available) the
measured frequency error averaged over 5 second intervals provided by
certain decoders (e.g. P25 C4FM and LSM). Frequency error value from
P25 decoders is provided from the Costas Loop PLL once 2 or more P25
message sync events have been observed in a short period.
-Updated R820T tuner to auto-correct PPM when measured frequency error
exceeds the +/- 0.4PPM threshold for a period of 30 seconds or more.
Feature can be enabled/disabled by user in the tuner editor panel.
Resolved several issues with P25 C4FM/LSM decoders that was impacting
performance related to channel misalignment from tuner PPM offsets.
adds Feed forward gain support to the C4FM DQPSK demodulator which seems
to improve output from the interpolating sample buffer at each symbol
period. Updates the symbol timing gain for C4FM to decrease the gain a
bit since the feed forward gain is providing a better interpolated symbol.
updates the LSM decoder to follow the same design pattern. Adds LSM
decoder support to the demodulator viewer application. The current
symbol timing gain for LSM is set too high -- is using the C4FM gain
and causes too much fluctuation in the timing error.
produces a significant reduction in memory usage, especially for tuners
like the airspy and hackrf that produce 10/20 MSPS sample rates. This
is observed to be around 66% reduction in peak memory usage and provides
a more stable memory utilization across time reducing stress on the
garbage collector.
Use of these reusable memory buffers will be pushed further down into
the processing chain modules to ensure we keep new object creation
to the lowest levels possible.
