What is your literature recommendation for those who want to understand
before they are setting up unconvincing demo systems? Can you give
specific recommendations for

- overview on theory
- finding decoding matrix for regular layout
- the same for irregular layout (probably the mentioned one?)
- subjective performance compared to other systems (localization,
quality, sweet spot etc)
- practical issues (maybe the many LAC papers?)
