Hi Tucker,
Thanks for posting your proposal! It's looking really promising at this
point and I have a few direct comments and then some comments that you
can take or leave.
In your deliverables section you include the high level objectives of a
memory polynomial model, an indirect learning system, and a direct
learning system. I think that while implementing and using those you'll
find there's a need to visualize the model, the learning system state
and performance, etc. Can you think about that for a bit and add in some
high level thoughts about what utilities or other additions to GNU Radio
would make sense?
Testing is also an important part of the module, both during your
development and for future users to try it. Do you have any thoughts
about how to do simulated tests? Do you have SDRs that you would be able
to run this with for hardware in the loop tests? Either way, please add
something to your proposal since we'll need a way of verifying that
stuff works!
In your timeline section, can you add in the GSoC dates from their
timeline and particularly make sure that you keep the three evaluations
in mind. It's important to be both realistic and clear about what you
plan to have done at each point. Everyone here knows how software
development goes, so the evaluations have that in mind, but it's really
valuable to plan for each one.

Here's the more day dreaming bit from me. Crest Factor Reduction is very
frequently used along with DPD to provide a balance in overall system
performance. Some of the algorithms are straightforward and could make
good stretch goals. If not CFR, then it would be good to think of some
other extensions or enhancements to the DPD work in the deliverables and
include them as optional work at the end.
Overall, your proposal looks good. We'll be evaluating all the
submissions starting next week and the accepted proposals are announced
May 6th. Between now and then though I hope you'll join us in the chat
room, try out GNU Radio more, and ask questions on the list.
Regards,
Derek

Hello all,
My name is Tucker Reinhardt I introduced myself a couple weeks ago.
Sorry for running up to the deadline but with finals coming around
it's is a busy time, but I still really hope to work on GNU Radio over
the summer as part of Google Summer of Code.
Here is the link to a my current proposal draft that I written, any
feedback would be greatly appreciated and used to tune my memory
polynomial (ha)
