Hey Marcus,
I'm getting the FFT over a 1 MHz bandwidth and I'm computing the average signal strength over a 125 kHz region of that 1 MHz region by integrating all the samples and dividing by the number of samples. I'm hoping to get an RSSI estimate over the input bandwidth. My issue is that I can't write to the file at 2 samples/sec. When I execute the code in the attached GRC, at the moment of execution I get a 32 KB file with 0s and it doesn't output any samples to the file. When the throttle block is removed, the processor on the E310 writes to the file at the clock speed which leads to incredibly large files. Is there a way to cut it down to 2 samples/sec? Also the Avg Mag^2 block is there to probe for signals of strength greater than -70 dB. Thanks, Varun ________________________________ From: discuss-gnuradio-bounces+vnambiar=fiu....@gnu.org <discuss-gnuradio-bounces+vnambiar=fiu....@gnu.org> on behalf of Marcus D.

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you, Varun Could you clarify whether you want RSSI estimates over the whole input bandwidth, or for each discrete frequency bin? This graph shows confusion in a number of areas, so, what is it you're trying to do? ________________________________________ From: Philip Balister <phi...@balister.org><mailto:phi...@balister.org> Sent: Thursday, July 2, 2015 1:35 PM To: Varun Nambiar; GNURadio Discussion List Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Writing RSSI Values to a File Twice/Sec On 07/02/2015 11:25 AM, Varun Nambiar wrote: Hi Philip, At the moment of execution a file size of 32KB with just 0s is written to my file and then it doesn't add anymore values after that. I am on release-2 and I've attached my GRC file. I dropped the throttle block and saw the output file get larger. Resend the flowgraph to the list and maybe someone else has some ideas how to make it better.

If you take a look at my flow graph I've managed to capture the average strength across the 200kHz GSM band and I'm trying to filter out the unwanted signals using the Probe Avg Mag^2 block. I'm having trouble writing to the file sink at a constant 2 samp/sec. Could you please give me advice on how I should fix my flow graph? What kind of trouble? Can you also post the grc file so I can try it locally. Also, which file system image are you using? The one from the card that came with the unit, or release-2?
