%Inputs:
% sym_cfg: OFDM sym config code, concatenated configuration fields

% Sym Config fields:
%     0: Load Base Rate - base-rate in 48 subcarriers (SIGNAL/HT-SIG fields)
%     1: Rotate BPSK - use QBPSK (+/- j) (HT-SIG fields)
%     2: Load HT-STF - no data bits
%     3: Load HT-LTF - no data bits
%     4: Load Full Rate - full-rate in 48 (a/g) or 52 (n/ac) subcarriers
%   6:5: Pilot shift (0,1,2,3)
%     7: Reserved
% 12: 8: Cyclic prefix length (samples)
% 15:13: Cyclic shift (samples)
