Hi Kaleem,
Each USRP has its on reference crystal oscillator. This oscillator may have
maximum +/- 50 PPM ( Matt said the new USRPs has maximum 20 PPM) frequency
error. Lets assume the error is 10 PPM in each USRP. This means, that at 2500
MHz (2.5 GHz) the error = 2500 * 10 = 25000 Hz = 25KHz.
Now imagine that the first USRP has +25 KHz frequency deviation error and the
second one has - 25KHz frequency error. This means + 50 KHz frequency mismtch
between your TX and Rx Frequencies. This is probably what is causing this high
error rate that you see.
To solve this problem you simply do :
1) Use usrp_siggen.py to send single tone at F1 frequency (For example, use F1
= 2475 MHz) from your TX USRP. The best thing is F1 be the frequency used in
your FSK experiments.
2) With your RX USRP, start usrp_fft.py with frequency F1 and decimation= 128
(or 256). You should see your transmitted tone but may be it's frequency is
shifted. Calculate this frequency shift.
3) Add/subtract this frequency shift to your RX USRP frequency tunning function.
4) Now your two USRPs frequency mismatch should not be the problem. If the
errors is still there, then you have to search for another reason.
Regards,
Firas

I have just provided the information which can be helpful for you, and the
code is also attached with it and a sample received file is also there along
with actual sent file.
Please just scroll up and you will find my message with all this
information. Additionally OS is 'openSUSI' a favour of Linux. But if
you
still need some more info then please let me know.
