UWB_RAKE_BIT_SLICER_UWB_Receiver

UWB_RAKE_BIT_SLICER_UWB_Receiver performs a function similar to UWB_BIT_SLICER_UWB_Receiver. Both bit slicers sample the integrator output at the last timestep before the integrator is reset in each bit interval; the polarity of the sampled integrator output is used to determine the value of the bit.

In the Rake receiver, the signal from each receiver finger is delayed to align it with the signal from the Rake finger synrhonized with the greatest delay arrival being received. UWB_RAKE_BIT_SLICER_UWB_Receiver uses the value of MaxFingerDelay to adjust the sampling time by the amount of additional delay applied to the first signal arrival. (In UWB_BIT_SLICER_UWB_Receiver, the integrator sampling time is fixed in the bit interval because variable delays are not present in the test benches that use it.)
