Oh, and perhaps this goes without saying, but 4 bits of dynamic range is extremely low for digital modulations. If you just want to detect transmissions, it should be sufficient, but, if you want to decode Bluetooth packets, the likelihood of decoding errors would be very high. You could operate with 100 MHz bandwidth at the full dynamic range of the ADC if you do your demodulation on the FPGA. This was a direction Dominic and I thought about pursuing but never did. You don't necessarily have to implement packet decoding on the FPGA; you could just channelize the waveform into 79 channels, demodulate each one into a 1 Mbps stream, and dump them all over Ethernet to a host computer to do the packet detection and decoding. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
