/*! \brief CN0_SNV is a Carrier-to-Noise (CN0) estimator

*
* Signal-to-Noise (SNR) (\f$\rho\f$) estimator using the Signal-to-Noise Variance (SNV) estimator:
* \f{equation}
* \hat{\rho}=\frac{\hat{P}_s}{\hat{P}_n}=\frac{\hat{P}_s}{\hat{P}_{tot}-\hat{P}_s},
* \f}
* where \f$\hat{P}_s=\left(\frac{1}{N}\sum^{N-1}_{i=0}|Re(Pc(i))|\right)^2\f$ is the estimation of the signal power,
* \f$\hat{P}_{tot}=\frac{1}{N}\sum^{N-1}_{i=0}|Pc(i)|^2\f$ is the estimator of the total power, \f$|\cdot|\f$ is the absolute value,
* \f$Re(\cdot)\f$ stands for the real part of the value, and \f$Pc(i)\f$ is the prompt correlator output for the sample index i.
*
* The SNR value is converted to CN0 [dB-Hz], taking to account the coherent integration time, using the following formula:
* \f{equation}
* CN0_{dB}=10*log(\hat{\rho})-10*log(2 * T_{int}),
* \f}
* where \f$T_{int}\f$ is the coherent integration time, in seconds.
