It's certainly possible, and advisable, to downsample from a full LTE capturing bandwidth to a more manageable rate of 1.92 Msps or 960 ksps. The latter can be handled very efficiently for initial acquisition, though the cyclic prefix length becomes fractional, which is annoying to handle. In either case, the complexity of the downsampling is mainly dictated by the output rate of the resampler. Done efficiently, even a small processor can handle PBCH decoding from a relatively high capture sample rate. Though, this would require a rather substantial change from the gr-lte synchronization approach and overall structure. -TT _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
