Hello Yeo, Your application is becoming complicated enough that you will have to start writing Python code to support the timed transmissions.
The GNU Radio manual has details about adding tags to the start of each burst so that they are transmitted at a specific time. You can use just the start and end of burst tags if you do not care about the actual timing, but for a radar application you certainly will care about the timing of each chirp. https://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/classgr_1_1uhd_1_1usrp__sink.html https://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/page_uhd.html Regards, Derek On Tue, May 15, 2018 at 7:58 AM, Yeo Jin Kuang Alvin (IA) < yjink...@dso.org.sg> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > Somehow, I managed to transmit by sending few pulse length and waiting for > few pulse length using "Signal Generator Sync Pulse" and I have attached > the .grc .
