-/* \brief Simple decision feedback equalizer for OFDM.
- * \ingroup ofdm_blk
- * \ingroup eq_blk
- *
- * Equalizes an OFDM signal symbol by symbol using knowledge of the
- * complex modulations symbols.
- * For every symbol, the following steps are performed:
- * - On every sub-carrier, decode the modulation symbol
- * - Use the difference between the decoded symbol and the received symbol
- * to update the channel state on this carrier
- * - Whenever a pilot symbol is found, it uses the known pilot symbol to
- * update the channel state.
- *
- * This equalizer makes a lot of assumptions:
- * - The initial channel state is good enough to decode the first
- * symbol without error (unless the first symbol only consists of pilot
- * tones)
- * - The channel changes only very slowly, such that the channel state
- * from one symbol is enough to decode the next
- * - SNR low enough that equalization will always suffice to correctly
- * decode a symbol
- * If these assumptions are not met, the most common error is that the
- * channel state is estimated incorrectly during equalization; after that,
- * all subsequent symbols will be completely wrong.
- *
- * Note that the equalized symbols are *exact points* on the constellation.
- * This means soft information of the modulation symbols is lost after the
- * equalization, which is suboptimal for channel codes that use soft decision.
- *
