Hi Bob,

i am sorry for answering that late (was on holidays wiht very limited Internet 
access).

Changing frequency solved my problem. But I am not sure why. I use a wbx v3 
daugtherboard (range 68,75 – 2200 MHz ). 
uhd_usrp_probe-file is attached.

Thanks for  your help.

Sebastian

What center frequency did you use?
What RF cards are you using?
Are you using coaxial cable,to connect transmit to receive or are you 
transmitting and receiving through an antenna?

If you are using antennas please describe them. 

Cheers
Bob

Hi all,
 
i run into trouble using the correlate estimation block. 
 
As far as i understand this blocks is used to search for a praeamble which is 
modulated and filtered with match filter.
To achieve this i used modulate vector. I used this block like it`s done in the 
corr_est exapmles provided in  /gnuradio/gr-digital/examples/.
 
Using no UHD but a channel modell everything works fine having clear 
correlation peak. 
Using it with hardware device it doesn`t work anymore, having more peaks 
avaiable.
 
My flowgraph is very simple:
 
Vector_source (using prae+data as vector tagged with tx_sob and tx_eob) -> 
constellation Modulator(default-QPSK-object) -> stream mux with null_source for 
break -> uhd sink(sync = PC_clock)
 
Uhd source (sync = PC_clock) -> low_pass -> corr_est(modulated_vector, 0.9) -> 
Pll-clock-sync -> Costas Loop -> constellation-demodulator -> float_to_char -> 
qt time sink 
 
 
Modulate vector is called with default-qpsk-object as constellation object and 
[1] as filter taps which i think is right.
The praeamble i am using is the one provided in the examples, so it should be 
ok too.
 
I dont have that much experience in this topic so I hope somebody is able to 
help me.
I am looking forward to hearing from you and thank you in advance.
 
 
Sebastian
 
PS : I am not sure where and how to provide the flowgraph itself but i´ll try 
to do it asap.
