-Signal Generator Script 1.0
-===============================================================================
+# Signal Generator Script

 This script takes command line arguments to broadcast the sum of various signals
 with differing strengths. The script takes in arguments by specifying a type of
 signal to broadcast followed by the corresponding parameters for that signal.

 The script currently supports 4 types of signals:
 
-1) It can broadcast a signal from a raw data file which is generated by a file
-  source in GNURadio and by the bandpass_recorder.py script included in this
-  project.
-2) Periodic - Generates a single sine wave at a specified offset from the
-  center frequency and should show up as a spike in the fourier transform.
-3) Wifi - Mimics a wifi signal. The type-specific signals like this require
-  that a config file be specified. The parameters of this signal can be
-  generated using signal_analyzer.py. It also requires a signal profile stored
-  in a .npy file.
-4) Bluetooth - Mimics a Bluetooth signal. See Wifi for description.
