Baseband Header
Baseband Header:
UPL (2 bytes): User Packet Length in bits (065535)
DFL (2 bytes): Data Field Length in bits (0 53760)
SYNC (1 byte): A copy of the User Packet sync-byte
SYNCD (2 bytes): Distance between beginning of Data field to the beginnin
of the first User Packet which starts in the data field.
CRC-8 Mode (1 byte): The XOR of the CRC-8 field with the MODE field.
CRC-8 is the CRC over the first 9 byte of the BB header.
MODE: 0 = Normal Mode (NM), 1 = High Effiency Mode (HM), other
values reserved for future use.
