[Discuss-gnuradio] How to exit GNU radio program

2012-06-27 Thread umer.rabbani
Hello All,

I am writing a basic GNU radio program. The program has 3 blocks, USRP2 , 
bandpass filter and file sink.

I want to read some specific frequency band and write the values to the file.
The object of my class is called Tb

I start the program by Tb.Run()
But I the program goes to an infinite loop and never stops.
I have tried
Tb.start()
Tb.stop()
Tb.wait()
Sys.exit()

But the program does not exit. I want to run my filter program for two 
different frequencies but it never stops so I am unable to run it the second 
time.

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [USRP-users] Getting a -135 dBm/Hz noise spectral density in USRP N210

2012-06-27 Thread Nazmul Islam
You are exactly right! We were using TX/RX antenna port in the WBX receiver
daughterboard. I get almost -170 dBm/Hz noise spectral density when I
select RX2. This is almost perfect!

Thanks! Your email increased my pathloss calculation range by 30 dB :)

Julio,

The answer is YES, but also the signal quality depends on your RF
front-end configuration such as antenna, amplifiers, etc.

What kind of signals are you trying to detect and/or decode?

Julio,

Usually, the frequency band is used by 800 MHz  trunking radio. So, I
presume you are scanning for GSM 850 and iDEN 800?
If that's the case, you will be able to detect the different type of
modulations, GMSK and M16QAM.
If you know the specifications, you will be able to decode it.

[Discuss-gnuradio] Questions

2012-06-27 Thread Amr Youssef
Hi all , i have some questions  :

In OFDM Modulator Block , in Mapper Sub-block , in path of :
./lib/digital_ofdm_mapper_bcv.cc

 1- I saw the following comment inside the code :  " Eventually, we will
get rid of the occupied_carriers concept. " , the question how you get rid
of the occupied carriers concept in the code and why ? . as i see the code
depends strongly on this concept .

2- Why the concept of occupied carriers is used  and why filling only part
of FFT size not all of it  ?

3-Inside the code ,  string carriers = "FE7F" .  I have two questions here
, the first is ,  when converting to bits : 11100111 , why there is
two zeros at DC instead of one zero only ?
The second question is , you started with "FE7F" .  Why  didn't  you start
with "E7"  and then pad F's from both sides  (looping) as  you did later !?

4- Also , for the following segment of the code : diff =
(d_occupied_carriers - 4*carriers.length())  .  Why you are multiplying by
four instead of eight when converting from Character Domain to Bit Domain ?
or you deal with them as HEX only ?


4- How many OFDM Symbols exist in one packet ?

5- What is the maximum packet size ?

6- What is the difference between coming message and the packet . Are they
the same thing ?  or Does one message contain more than one packet ?

Thanks in-advance
Amr ,

[Discuss-gnuradio] tunnel.py doesn't receive packages when transmit and receive frequencies are different

2012-06-27 Thread Weixian Zhou
I run tunnel.py with two machines and there are some packages exchange
immediately after setting the network interface gr0. If I set the
frequencies of transmit and receive the same, packages are transmitted and
received at both machines:
on machine A:
*sudo ./tunnel.py -f 2.4xG ; sudo ifconfig gr0 192.168.200.1 *
on machine B:
*sudo ./tunnel.py -f 2.4xG ; sudo ifconfig gr0 192.168.200.2*

But when I set the frequencies of transmit and receive different under
2.5GHz, packages can't be received at both machines:
on machine A:
*sudo ./tunnel.py --tx-freq=2.4xG --rx-freq=2.4yG; sudo ifconfig gr0
192.168.200.1 *
on machine B:
*sudo ./tunnel.py --tx-freq=2.4yG --rx-freq=2.4xG; sudo ifconfig gr0
192.168.200.2*

The wired thing is that when I set the frequencies of transmit and receive
different above 2.5GHz, packages can be again transmitted and received:
on machine A:
*sudo ./tunnel.py --tx-freq=2.51G --rx-freq=2.512G; sudo ifconfig gr0
192.168.200.1 *
on machine B:
*sudo ./tunnel.py --tx-freq=2.512G --rx-freq=2.51G; sudo ifconfig gr0
192.168.200.2*

I am using USRP N210s and the daughter boards are both XCVR2450. Does
anyone can explain why the tunnel.py doesn't receive packages when transmit
and receive frequencies are different under 2.5GHz?

Look at the gr-digital/examples/narrowband files, specifically
benchmark_tx.py. With the resampler in it, you should be able to get

This module is in the top component named gr-blocks. But in recent
