= User Interface (UI) specification for the Interference Subsystem =
This document is a draft specification for the User Interface to the Interference subsystem (includes the interference generator and spectrum/signal observation instruments) on the ORBIT indoor testbed. 

== Basic operations ==
The two most basic operations that will be carried out using this subsystem are the generation of signals and their __observation in different domains (time and frequency).  Experimenters should be provided with interfaces for the same. While designing these interfaces, the following points should be carefully considered. 
1. '''Instrument Complexity''' - Instruments are quite complex and experimenters should be shielded from this complexity.

2. '''Heterogenous Instruments ''' - The subsystem should allow for the addition of instruments, with different capabilities.
