+/*! \page bert_page The Bit Error Rate tester
+\section bert_page_sec_1 What does it do?
+The Bit Error Rate tester generates a pseudo random bit stream. It also accepts such
+a pattern, synchronises to it, and checks the bit error rate in this stream.
+
+\section bert_page_sec_2 How does it work?
+The Bit Error Rate tester generates a bit stream, with a repeating 2047 bit pseudo
+random pattern, using an 11 stage polynomial generator. It also accepts such a pattern,
+synchronises to it, and checks the bit error rate in this stream. If the error rate is
+excessive the tester assumes synchronisation has been lost, and it attempts to
+resynchronise with the stream.
+
+The bit error rate is continuously assessed against decadic ranges -
+    > 1 in 10^2
+    > 1 in 10^3
+    > 1 in 10^4
+    > 1 in 10^5
+    > 1 in 10^6
+    > 1 in 10^7
+    < 1 in 10^7
+To ensure fairly smooth results from this assessment, each decadic level is assessed
+over 10/error rate bits. That is, to assess if the signal's BER is above or below 1 in 10^5
+the software looks over 10*10^5 => 10^6 bits.
