Thanks for the feedback but I am not sure that I understand it. What I
was hoping to do was step through the configurations with increasing
levels of synchronisation and expecting to see same.
Marcus' comment is correct and I have not, yet, put in the code which
synchronises SBXs.
I guess my basic point, from looking at previous post from others Marcus
L included, was that UHD would somehow improve the synchronisation
between two USRPs in the same container versus those two separately.
When I executed the FG shown (separately) with the USRPs individually
and then within a UHD container the results in terms of phase variation
was the same. I had expected that, based on my understanding, the
containerised USRPs would have behaved better.
So, either my FG does not measure what I thought it should or there is
little UHD-related benefit to having USRPs individually or in the
'domain' as MarcusL has mentioned previously. From my situation it
doesn't hence the first question in the post:
Does my FG not measure what I claim to be wishing to
measure?
Kind Regards,
John

Only if you ask it to do so, and only if it's sharing clock with its
buddies...

Dear All,
I have a couple of USRPs connected, through a strong
attenuator to a signal generator (NWT4001). While the units have
a MIMO
option, I don't have that cable. (Option A) When I run the GRC as
attached, I see too good a result to the extent that the differential
Phi seems to range over +/- 5 degrees.
What I had hoped to prove to myself that two N200
with SBX
would have a varying offset without MIMO cable, then I would
connect the
MIMO cable and move the USRPs into a multi-unit and enable GPSD
O/B on
the unit which has the feature and MIMO for one without (Option
B) and
that the phase differential would improve noticeably and be a
variable
constant, but it didn't.
If it had, but there still was a fixed phase
offset which
varied each time it was setup (which is what I would expect under B)
then I would hand-code the SBX stream initialisation code to
remove the
offset.
Does my FG not measure what I claim to be wishing to
measure?
If it does measure it correctly, why do my
expectations
of options A and B leading to a different (though improved) situation
not eventuate?
Kind Regards,
John
