Hi, this seems really strange, some ideas for debugging:
1) the demod process works fine at first but adds or drops a few samples such that some chips a shifted a bit, and as the chip seqs of 802.15.4 are just shifted/inverted version of each other so that you see many different symbols in the end. You can print the input to the packet_sink (after slicing) and see if they resemble shifted version of the sequences you expect. The debug messages also mention how many chip errors were found, if the receiver had too many chip errors and restarted, etc. 2) Is the problem always after 32 symbols? (32 symbols * 32 chips, ...) This would suggest a "digital" problem. Buffers too small or something? 3) The error may be at the sender, shifting the symbols a bit in the middle of the packet so that the receiver has problems with sync (or just sends bogus after 32 symbols). You can monitor (scope sink) with a second USRP if the signal looks alright.
