So do I understand correctly, that the adding tx_time finally made the MIMO case work? I'd never done burst transmission with multiple USRP outputs. I'm not totally surprised but I wasn't sure what would happen. Maybe someone from Ettus can comment on this? Since UHD is trying to do time alignment in the multi_usrp class, what happens to time alignemt in the non-continuous-streaming case if you *don't* include a tx_time tag? Noncontinuous streaming means there is some amount of down time. If you don't include tx_time tags, the device doesn't know when to start back up again, so each antenna is going to start at a different time. Matt That seemed exactly the kind of behaviour I saw where sync between the two streams was lost. Matt, can you comment on whether I need to put dummy padding items before the first burst? to flush buffers and is there a delicate way to do this? ________________________________ NOTE: The information in this email and any attachments may be confidential and/or legally privileged.
