+ *
+ * Detect a plateau of a-priori known height. Input is a stream of floats,
+ * the output is a stream of bytes. Whenever a plateau is detected, the
+ * middle of that plateau is marked with a '1' on the output stream (all
+ * other samples are left at zero).
+ *
+ * You can use this in a Schmidl & Cox synchronisation algorithm to interpret
+ * the output of the normalized correlator. Just pass the length of the cyclic
+ * prefix (in samples) as the max_len parameter).
+ *
+ * Unlike the peak detectors, you must the now the absolute height of the plateau.
+ * Whenever the amplitude exceeds the given threshold, it starts assuming the
+ * presence of a plateau.
+ *
+ * An implicit hysteresis is provided by the fact that after detecting one plateau,
+ * it waits at least max_len samples before the next plateau can be detected.
