Our java program occasionally receives some corrupted packet as following.
I think there are two possible places where a packet is corrupted.
1. CC2420RadioM
Our case is a bit similar to that is reported by
http://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/pipermail/tinyos-help/2006-August/018704.html.
Our data rate is also high, and we also use CC2420 radio chip(on iMote2).
But the difference is that we  don't use TOSBase. When the sink forwards
packets that are received from radio to UART, there is a crc check in
AMStandard.nc. So if the packet is corrupted, it should be thrown away, but
not forwarded to UART. Therefore it seems that it may be not a corrupted
packet from CC2420.

2. UART transmission
I check the code of FrameM.nc,  crc calculation is done in
       async event result_t ByteComm.txByteReady(bool LastByteSuccess) ,
In Packetizer.java, crc is also checked. Therefore it also seems that the
packet is not corrupted in UART.

I am very confused about this. Is it because CRC is not reliable to check
corrupted packets? But in our experiment, it seems that corrupted packets
are received only when packet rate is high.  Thanks.
