Reviewer 2 Report

The results are interesting, and the conclusions are well supported by the analysis of the results. However, the section describing the test ring is very condensed even though it refers to quote 17. 
Did you use the same test bench? Did you do any signal processing?

I suggest expanding the methodology. Specifically, the test bench part since the experiment design has a direct impact on the results.
