   This program produces a gnuplot file that plots the theoretical and experimental packet error
   rate (PER) as a function of receive signal for the 802.15.4 model. As described by the standard,
   the PER is calculated with the transmission of frames with a PSDU of 20 bytes. This is equivalent
   to an MPDU = MAC header (11 bytes) + FCS (2 bytes) +  payload (MSDU 7 bytes). In the experimental
   test, 1000 frames are transmitted for each Rx signal ranging from -130 dBm to -100 dBm with
   increments of 0.01 dBm. The point before PER is < 1 % is the device receive sensitivity.
   Theoretical and experimental Rx sensitivity is printed at the end of the end and a plot is
   generated.
 
   Example usage:
 
   ./ns3 run "lr-wpan-per-plot --rxSensitivity=-92"
