Hi,
I have two USRPs (N210) connected to each other through a channel
emulator (via RF cable) which is emulating a lossless channel.
When I run the benchmark_rx.py I see some
spurious bytes being received by the receiver even when the sender
application (benchmark_tx.py) has not been started. I have enabled
VERBOSE in the file "digital_ofdm_frame_sink.cc". Below is a sample output from
the receiver
(note the sender has not been started at all). I see that intermittently
the cc layer prints out the following block which means it got some
bytes (symbols). How can receiver get these bytes when there is no sender?
What is more bothersome is that when I change the occupied-tones
to 120 (i.e., I run it with "python benchmark_rx.py --args "addr=usrp4" -f
795.5M --occ 120 -W 4M"),
(in this case "bytes from demapper = 14" printed instead of 29)
then the following block is printed *continuously*. I am wondering where is the
receiver getting bytes/symbols when there is no transmitter? I am running
gnuradio 3.6.2.
