CBF-SDP Emulator

This is an emulator for the Correlator Beamformer and its data sending capabilities. It reads data from a data source (typically a Measurement Set, but other sources will be added in the future, like correlator data dumps) and sends it over a network transport to a number of receivers, thus mimicking the CBF-SDP interface.

This is an extensible and configurable package that has been designed to support multiple communication protocols and provide a platform for testing consumers of CBF data payloads. It currently only implements the SPEAD transmission protocol, but other protocols can be added in the future.
