Expects "Correlate Access Code - Tag" block upstream with the Biphase-L decoded frame sync pattern (0x7FF = 15 ones). When a frame sync tag is detected, collects the following 576 bits (72 bytes) and emits as a PDU message. Parameters: tag_name: Name of the stream tag to look for (default: "pds_sync") Input: Biphase-L decoded bit stream with frame sync tags Output: PDU messages containing 72-byte PDS frames file_format: 1
