For a while, it was the standard deviation of a 1-D normal distribution,
so for complex data, you'd need to scale it up (because there you have a
2-D normal distribution). Check out the noise_power.grc example for more
help.

Remember that you usually want Eb/N0, which is clearly defined, whereas
SNR is a bit fuzzy and can mean all kinds of things.

Cheers,
