Additionally this PR solves a conflict with the half-duplex constraint in the current HNAP version: So far, a client continuously tracks the pilot tones sent by the basestation. This also happens if the client transmits in the UL. This violates the half-duplex constraint and can cause erroneous channel estimations in the DL.
This PR will make the the DL channel way more silent and simplify the pilot tone generation.
NOTE: This PR makes the BS and Client software incompatible with previous versions! Pilot definitions changed and the client cannot expect that the BS is always transmitting anymore.
Tests
Since we rely on manual testing, here is what tests will be performed:
Simulations in Rayleigh fading channel for downlink show a slight performance decrease.
Simulations with static multipath in the uplink show that the BER performance is similar to the current version
