32 Mchips/sec. You need to do the correlation at this speed; it's not
possible to send that much data over the USB to the host.
A channel sounder in software would work for chip rates less than 4
Mchip/sec. But that limits the resolution of your impulse response to
about 250 ns per bin, or 75 meters per bin in the spatial domain.
