+ * \brief A Costas loop carrier recovery module.
+ * \ingroup sync_blk
+ * \ingroup digital
+ *
+ * The Costas loop locks to the center frequency of a signal and
+ * downconverts it to baseband. The second (order=2) order loop
+ * is used for BPSK where the real part of the output signal is
+ * the baseband BPSK signal and the imaginary part is the error
+ * signal. When order=4, it can be used for quadrature
+ * modulations where both I and Q (real and imaginary) are
+ * outputted.
+ *
+ * More details can be found online:
+ *
+ * J. Feigin, "Practical Costas loop design: Designing a simple
+ * and inexpensive BPSK Costas loop carrier recovery circuit," RF
+ * signal processing, pp. 20-36, 2002.
+ *
+ * http://rfdesign.com/images/archive/0102Feigin20.pdf
+ *
+ * The Costas loop can have two output streams:
+ * stream 1 is the baseband I and Q;
+ * stream 2 is the normalized frequency of the loop
