Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] What is the range of USRP complex sample values

2007-09-10 Thread Dan Halperin
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 The maximum (at 16 bits complex samples) data rate across USB on the USRP is 16 MHz; hence the minimum decimation rate of 4. My understanding is that this decimation gives more bits -- since you're combining 4 samples together, you can now extrapolate
