These are, after all, radio channels we're talking about. They need to be reasonably robust in the face of "stuff you can't control".
In the real world, glitches happen on analog channels. Which is why you develop techniques to cope with them. I see the occasional underrun/overrun as equivalent to these glitches. You'd rather they not happen often enough that they seriously impact your channel BER. -- Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
