--- Based on diag_waveproc from LOFAR
+-- Purpose: Sine waveform generator
+-- Description:
+-- . Based on diag_waveproc from LOFAR.
+-- Remarks:
+-- . For WG sine periods that integer fit in the WG buffer size the carrier
+--   wWave (CW) frequency is exact. For fractional WG frequencies, for which
+--   the CW period does not fit the WG buffer size, the WG frequency is exact
+--   only on average.
+-- . The signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the carrier wave (CW) sine is:
+--     SNR = g_calc_dat_w * 6.02 dB + 1.76 dB,
+--   provided that the CW period fits the buffer size.
+---. For fractional WG frequencies the effective number of bits of the WG is
+--   g_buf_addr_w - 1, because the WG buffer contains a full sine period. The
+--   -1 bit or factor 1/2 comes from that the rising slope and falling slope
+--   of the WG buffer sine map the period resolution to the amplitude
+--   resolution. Hence for fraction WG frequencies the effective SNR of the 
+--   CW becomes:
+--     SNR = (g_buf_addr_w-1) * 6.02 dB + 1.76 dB.
+--   Hence for g_buf_addr_w = 10, the effective SNR of the generated
+--   CW with fractional frequency is SNR ~= 56 dB, even if g_calc_dat_w > 9.
