Hi Eric and other friends Today I tried a lot on the FSK TX/RX, by connecting the BasicTX and BasicRX on the same USRP board via a sma-sma cable.
I am wondering, what is a good and correct reception? Ideally, I thought it should be, if I send a file, it should be received exactly the same as the original one. However, this is not the case in my experiments. Sometimes, even I didn't send anything, the receiver can still "receive" something and write them into the file. Sometimes, although it is synchronized at the receiver, (the seq no. is correct, going increasingly), the receiving file is still much different with the original one, (might be larger). So what happens? Is there anything wrong with my setting? What can be done for a reliable transmission?
