 * \brief This block performs CVSD audio decoding.  Its design and
 * implementation is modeled after the CVSD encoder/decoder
 * specifications defined in the Bluetooth standard.
 * \ingroup audio_blk
 *
 * \details
 * CVSD is a method for encoding speech that seeks to reduce the
 * bandwidth required for digital voice transmission.  CVSD takes
 * advantage of strong correlation between samples, quantizing the
 * difference in amplitude between two consecutive samples.  This
 * difference requires fewer quantization levels as compared to
 * other methods that quantize the actual amplitude level,
 * reducing the bandwidth.  CVSD employs a two level quantizer
 * (one bit) and an adaptive algorithm that allows for continuous
 * step size adjustment.
 *
 * The coder can represent low amplitude signals with accuracy
 * without sacrificing performance on large amplitude signals, a
 * trade off that occurs in some non-adaptive modulations.
 *
 * The CVSD decoder effectively provides 1-to-8 decompression.
 * More specifically, for each incoming input bit, the decoder
 * outputs one audio sample.  If the input is a "1" bit, the
 * internal reference is increased appropriately and then
 * outputted as the next estimated audio sample.  If the input is
 * a "0" bit, the internal reference is decreased appropriately
 * and then likewise outputted as the next estimated audio sample.
 * Grouping 8 input bits together, the encoder essentially
 * produces 8 output audio samples for everyone one input byte.
 *
 * This decoder requires that output audio samples are 2-byte
 * short signed integers.  The result bandwidth conversion,
 * therefore, is 1 byte of encoded audio data to 16 output bytes
 * of raw audio data.
 *
 * The CVSD decoder module must be post-fixed by a down-converter
 * to under-sample the audio data after decoding.  The Bluetooth
 * standard specifically calls for a 8-to-1 decimating
 * down-converter.  This is required so that so that output
 * sampling rate equals the original input sampling rate present
 * before the encoder.  In all cases, the output down-converter
 * rate must be the inverse of the input up-converter rate before
 * the CVSD encoder.
