Insert description of flowgraph here, then show a screenshot of the flowgraph and the output if there is an interesting GUI. Currently we have no standard method of uploading the actual flowgraph to the wiki or git repo, unfortunately.  The plan is to have an example flowgraph showing how the block might be used, for every block, and the flowgraphs will live in the git repo.
This flowgraph shows the Quadrature Demod block as a Frequency Shift Keying detector.

This can be used to demod FM, FSK, GMSK, etc. The input is complex baseband, output is the signal frequency in relation to the sample rate, multiplied with the gain.

Mathematically, this block calculates the product of the one-sample delayed input and the conjugate undelayed signal, and then calculates the argument of the resulting complex number:

y[n] = \mathrm{arg}\left(x[n] \, \bar x [n-1]\right)

Let x be a complex sinusoid with amplitude A>0, (absolute) frequency f\in\mathbb R and phase \phi_0\in[0;2\pi] sampled at f_s>0 so, without loss of generality,

x[n]= A e^{j2\pi( \frac f{f_s} n + \phi_0)}\f

then

y[n] = \mathrm{arg}\left(A e^{j2\pi\left( \frac f{f_s} n + \phi_0\right)} \overline{A e^{j2\pi( \frac f{f_s} (n-1) + \phi_0)}}\right)\ = \mathrm{arg}\left(A^2 e^{j2\pi\left( \frac f{f_s} n + \phi_0\right)} e^{-j2\pi( \frac f{f_s} (n-1) + \phi_0)}\right)\ = \mathrm{arg}\left( A^2 e^{j2\pi\left( \frac f{f_s} n + \phi_0 - \frac f{f_s} (n-1) - \phi_0\right)}\right)\ = \mathrm{arg}\left( A^2 e^{j2\pi\left( \frac f{f_s} n - \frac f{f_s} (n-1)\right)}\right)\ = \mathrm{arg}\left( A^2 e^{j2\pi\left( \frac f{f_s} \left(n-(n-1)\right)\right)}\right)\ = \mathrm{arg}\left( A^2 e^{j2\pi \frac f{f_s}}\right) \intertext{$A$ is real, so is $A^2$ and hence only \textit{scales}, therefore $\mathrm{arg}(\cdot)$ is invariant:} = \mathrm{arg}\left(e^{j2\pi \frac f{f_s}}\right)\= \frac f{f_s}\\

Parameters

Gain
Gain setting to adjust the output amplitude. Set based on converting the phase difference between samples to a nominal output value.
