hi all ,

about Nick's statement ,
Don't worry about the USRP native rate (64/128Msps). The FPGA 
inside the USRP handles interpolation and decimation to step from the 
sample rate of the USB interface (0.5Msps to 8Msps) to the ADC/DAC rate 
(64Msps/128Msps). The sample rate you choose should be the sample rate 
that is appropriate for your application.

i think this is correct provided that you consider that the interpolation or 
decimation has a maximum value which is i think equal to 400 ,
is this true Nick??? 
regards ,
Osama

Hi...
I mean... the sampling rate of the uhd sink and source what refers to...? I've 
since in some documents that if you are transmitting , you have to take in 
account that the DAC for output  works at 128 M/s and the sample rate for the  
UHD sink block has to be determined somewhow from that.


 
In the same way the ADC for reception works at 64 M/s and the sampling rate for 
the UHD source block has to be determined somehow from that 64 M/s .

I just want to make simple transmission and reception.



Am I wrong? or I am understanding not really good what I am reading about this. 
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone...
I am getting confused about the use of the parameter of sampling rate in GNU 
RADIO.
I really need  to understand the sampling rate of the uhd sink and source and  
the sampling rate of the blocks in the flow graph and how to choose those 
sampling rates.





Thanks a lot for you help!!

Sample rate is a fundamental parameter of digital signal processing. Try an 
introductory DSP textbook, or the following articles:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_signal
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_ratehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist%E2%80%93Shannon_sampling_theorem


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(signal_processing)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliasing



Without a basic understanding of sampling theory or DSP you will have 
difficulty progressing with Gnuradio.
