Detailed Description

SNR Estimator using skewness correction.

This is an estimator that came from a discussion between Tom Rondeau and fred harris with no known paper reference. The idea is that at low SNR, the variance estimations will be affected because of fold-over around the decision boundaries, which results in a skewness to the samples. We estimate the skewness and use this as a correcting term.

This algorithm only appears to work well for BPSK signals.
