Well, even if you're *not* using OFDM, have a look at the codes (and the
ofdm_rx GRC example). We have state machines and feedback loops for
bursty reception, just as you described.

You can look at my work-in-progress branch where I'm taking the OFDM frame header/parser concept and generalizing it even more for easier use with other non-OFDM modems:


Needs a bit more work, cleanup, and docs, though.
