 * \brief Polyphase filterbank bandpass decimator with gr_complex
 *        input, gr_complex output and float taps
 *
 * This block takes in a signal stream and performs interger down-
 * sampling (decimation) with a polyphase filterbank. The first input
 * is the integer specifying how much to decimate by. The second
 * input is a vector (Python list) of floating-point taps of the
 * prototype filter. The third input specifies the channel to extract.
 * By default, the zeroth channel is used, which is the baseband
 * channel (first Nyquist zone).
 *
 * The <EM>channel</EM> parameter specifies which channel to use since
 * this class is capable of bandpass decimation. Given a complex input
 * stream at a sampling rate of <EM>fs</EM> and a decimation rate of
 * <EM>decim</EM>, the input frequency domain is split into
 * <EM>decim</EM> channels that represent the Nyquist zones. Using the
 * polyphase filterbank, we can select any one of these channels to
 * decimate.
 *
 * The output signal will be the basebanded and decimated signal from
 * that channel. This concept is very similar to the PFB channelizer
 * (see #gr_pfb_channelizer_ccf) where only a single channel is
 * extracted at a time.
 *
 * The filter's taps should be based on the sampling rate before
 * decimation.
 *
 * For example, using the GNU Radio's firdes utility to building
 * filters, we build a low-pass filter with a sampling rate of
 * <EM>fs</EM>, a 3-dB bandwidth of <EM>BW</EM> and a transition
 * bandwidth of <EM>TB</EM>. We can also specify the out-of-band
 * attenuation to use, <EM>ATT</EM>, and the filter window
 * function (a Blackman-harris window in this case). The first input
 *  is the gain of the filter, which we specify here as unity.
 *
 *      <B><EM>self._taps = gr.firdes.low_pass_2(1, fs, BW, TB,
 *           attenuation_dB=ATT, window=gr.firdes.WIN_BLACKMAN_hARRIS)</EM></B>
 *
 * The PFB decimator code takes the taps generated above and builds a
 * set of filters. The set contains <EM>decim</EM> number of filters
 * and each filter contains ceil(taps.size()/decim) number of taps.
 * Each tap from the filter prototype is sequentially inserted into
 * the next filter. When all of the input taps are used, the remaining
 * filters in the filterbank are filled out with 0's to make sure each
 * filter has the same number of taps.
 *
 * The theory behind this block can be found in Chapter 6 of
 * the following book.
