Ah, well, now I'm not able to compute what impact can have this "windowing" of the samples... maybe that just concatenating the buffers' content is perfectly equivalent to have a continuous stream of samples (for noise measurement only, of course). If the desired noise band can fit into one buffer and the statistic properties don't change from buffer to buffer then I think it is OK to concatenate or use just one full buffer of samples. I think that problems can arise only when trying to look very close to the carrier where more than one full buffer must be available to measure the "slowness" of the noise.
