Re: Have you used radioconda to install GNU Radio and radio related software? We'd like to hear from you.

2022-11-17 Thread Bernard Tyers - ei8fdb

Hello all,

A friendly request/reminder - if you've used the radioconda installer, 
we're interested in your feedback:


https://saneuxdesign.survey.fm/radioconda-survey

We're particularly interested in hearing from amateur radio, and 
educational (i.e. using GR to teach students) users, but everyone is 
welcome to take part.


It takes only a few minutes and we'd appreciate your input.

If you've got any questions, let me know.

Thanks,
Bernard

Hello all,

Ryan Volz and I have put together a short (6 questions) survey to 
understand usage of Radioconda - the Windows/Mac OS/Linux installer 
for GNU Radio and other radio related software packages, and also to 
get suggestions on what other software to package with Radioconda.


The Radioconda installer is used to install GNU Radio, gqrx, 
gr-satellites and other gr-* packages, and also install support for 
SDR devices/ device libraries like ADALM-PLUTO, Airspy, BladeRF, 
RTL-SDR, Ettus USRPs.


If you've used it, we'd be very grateful if you'd help us out by 
filling out the survey:

There's more info about the survey on that link.

If you've got any questions, let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Bernard 




Re: Query about OFDM Receiver with USRP

Hello,

I am working on the implementation of OFDM TX and  RX using USRP N210 
and GNURadio.
I used the the grc flow graphs done by GNURadio workshops and I was 
able to receive the OFDM signal and demodulate it.
Also, I connected a constellation sink to the Palyoad Stream Virtual 
Source at the RX side (after demodulation), and I got 4 constellation 
points which is corresponding

to the QPSK similar to the Tx cosntellation.
However, when I removed the Smidl and Cox synchronization to check the 
phase rotation from the CFO (please see attached) , I still have the 
same 4 constellation points without phase rotation. Do you know why 
this happens?
You haven't described your physical setup, but if you have TX 
looped-back to RX, there won't be any phase rotation since
  the TX and RX are both phase-locked to the same master oscillator 
on-board the N210.  In "real-life" scenarios, of course,

  there will be phase rotation between the TX and RX.




One more thing please, is there any way to extract a certain 
subcarrier from the FFT at the receiver side. I need to do some post 
processing on one of the subcarriers?
