[Discuss-gnuradio] dead usrp board

2006-05-29 Thread Bob Vincent
I have a usrp board that doesn't respond in any way. I think (in the best case) that the flash might have gotten erased. I must admit that I haven't checked the fuse yet. My meter is at home and the board is at work. Assuming that the fuse isn't blown, is there any other diagnostic work I can do

[Discuss-gnuradio] Concept: datatypes, conversions

2006-05-29 Thread Patrick Strasser
Hello! I had a question about vectors some weeks ago, but it's still not everything clear to me. I understand that converting a datastream to vector changes the organisation of the data, or makes chunks of data that are processed as a data block. For example you can feed the fft-blocks only

Thank you, Amit. You're correct -- "ddc.v" is not used, the right stuff is in "rc_chain.v" file. Now the next step... Regards, Angilberto. --- amit malani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > to the extend of my knowledge, i guess ddc.v is not > used. > > give a look to the rx_chain.v file, you wil

HiI just had a few questions regarding the frequency modulatig block. The current input sample is used in conjuction with the sensitivity parameter to determine the new phase value. Is this correct? I'm just a bit confused as to how the phase calculations and the sensitivity parameter relate to the

Hello! I'm about to write a paper for university covering an overview over software defined radio, with a special focus on GNUradio an related systems. It's nothing very professional (it's meant to educate on writing scientific papers), but nevertheless I need some good papers (articles) and
