Right (you were faster on clarifying, thanks ;)).
As for the -50: the macros do rounding to the nearest int, while your
proposal would resemble a floor(), which would result in the values
being decremented from their current value. Given that 5us would be
corrected to 4us, I think it is better to go for the round() approach to
keep detection balanced.
It is maybe not relevant at all for the lower ranges, I came up with the
modification since we had failures detecting type 4 patterns with
maximum pulse width including margin with a total of 31us.
(FYI, other than that, the DFS detector works well enough for
certification by ETSI.)
Cheers,
Zefir
