Hi Nikita, so basically what you want is a couple of calculated FFTs per second. These are then sent to the web service and delivered to who ever connects to it. Let's assume every USRP has its own flowgraph. Then The thing to do is, receive samples, convert them to a vector with the size of your FFT, use a 'Keep one in N' block to decimate the number of FFTs per second and feed the output to a FFT block. Then pass your results around as you like.
