I don't actually know what the gr.enable_realtime_scheduling
function do
I didn't change the nice value (with top or nice, etc.). I thought
enabling the real time setting (gr.enable_realtime_scheduling) in the
script will automatically change priority to (max + min) /2.
are 'priority' and 'nice' the same thing?
Thanks,

That all looks well-formed. Are
Sorry I reread your original email, ... you're now using settings where
the there are no more (or very few) USRP overruns? Is that correct?
Yes. When using smaller fusb_nblock and fusb_block_size parameters, I
don't see any 'uO' when running the script.
In that case it's not the overruns, it'
Hi,
I am working on a VHF receiver using USRP/TVRX board. I need to receive a band
of 6 MHz from 156,025 MHz to 162,025 MHz.
I have compiled the latest version of GNU Radio (3.0.3), the old tv_rx script
are not compatible with the latest version of GNU Radio.
Do you know which script in Python I

Have you tried running the latest low-latency kernel, with
modified settings in /etc/security/limits.conf?

Thanks for the quick response. I really appreciate it.
uO means "USRP Overrun". That is, the USRP is sending data to the
computer faster than the computer can handle it. This probably means
that you are sending at too high a data rate -- the online decoder is
taking too much CPU. When you start

The data is packed binary data. Each complex samples is stored as 8
bytes, 4 bytes I as a float and 4 bytes Q. You need to use a binary
program to read these files. See read_complex_binary.m for MATLAB code
and the exact same syscalls translate directo
Hello,
I e-mailed this list last week and have had some issues trying to get the
file usrp_rx_cfile.py to give me a proper output. The readme file says that
the output is "single precision complex float values". Honestly I do not
know how to convert this data to a proper text that I can analyz
Hi,
I'm running some packet transmission experiments using GNU Radio and
USRP. However, the packet loss ratio is very high (20%) even when I
directly connect two USRP boards, which are the transmitter and the
receiver, with a direct antenna cable (I've also tried using regular
antennas, but the p

The way I read that ruling, it requires that the USRP,
among other products be approved by the FCC. Matt or
anybody care to comment?

but what is the usual good way in gnuradio to fill a vector with data
from files?
is there an alternative to this
