+ * bins in the FFT output for the correlation in case there is a large frequency
+ * shift in the data. This block assumes that the fine frequency shift has already
+ * been corrected and that the samples fall in the middle of one FFT bin.
+ *
+ * It then uses one of those known
+ * symbols to estimate the channel response over all subcarriers and does a simple
+ * 1-tap equalization on all subcarriers. This corrects for the phase and amplitude
