Is there a status indicator in the USRP2 C++ interface that flags
underflows? I am trying to push samples (using the std::complex
type) to the USRP2 at an interpolation factor of 4. It seems to be
working, but I require hard evidence that I am not underflowing.

I've been tracking L2C this summer also. I can verify that there is NO
DATA on any of the L2C capable SVs. The US Coast Guard has a great GPS
status site at http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/. The GPS constellation status
is listed at:

To the USRP experts out there:
I reclocked my USRP from 64 to 65.536 MHz and have recently discovered
that the I & Q samples are no longer orthogonal, rather they seem to be
only 70 degrees or so apart. I would guess this is due to some hard
coded values in the CIC or HB filters? Is there a US
Chris:
So you are not tracking the signal in the traditional sense, only
looking at the frequency and delay estimate of your FFT acquisition. How
far spaced are your Doppler bins in the FFT acquisition? If you are
using a 1 ms integration time, and hence a 500 Hz bin spacing, if the
signal's
After reading a bunch of questions about GPS antennas I am making myself
the guinea pig. I just ordered the "Mighty Mouse 3" active GPS antenna.
The spec sheet quotes +5dBi gain at zenith and -1dBi at 10 degrees. I

The DBS-RX is the way to go. I use the +5V bias on the DBS-RX, and it
works fine, with the added benefit of not adding another AC-DC brick to
your setup. To enable the +5V bias just short J101 on the DBS-RX card.
Checkout www.gps-sdr.com, you might be interested.
If you have data I could look at that would be great, but in my post I
did not mention I am using a USRP I clocked externally with a signal
generator. In your message you indicate that you were successful
extending correlations to 20 ms when you used a better clock, which
tells me I am screwing
For all the GPS users out there, has anyone been able to extend
correlations to 20 ms? I have had a heck of a time extending the
correlation interval without hosing my 3rd order PLL.

Would anyone be interested in an additional decimation stage after the
CIC and the halfband filters? The usable bandwidth is ~25-50% of the
actual post decimation sample rate, an additional decimation stage (no
filtering, just a plain decimation) would allow the sample rate pushed
across the US

I have some C/C++ functions that utilize MMX and/or SSE available that
work on 16 bit signed integers. The URL is:

They work particularly well for building a software correlator :).

Tuning the down-converter on the DBS-RX card consists of programming the
values of 2 dividers. The R divider divides down the reference clock
frequency (4 MHz, which derives from the 64 MHz board clock). The N
divider divides down the LO frequency. The R divider has a range from 2
to 2
Is there a proper way to format comments in my DBS-RX driver's source to
be included in the doxygen documentation? I would like to do this prior
to submission of the driver. Thanks.

To all concerned parties:
I think I've discovered the problem. My "tune" routine chose the R and N
dividers to minimize the difference between the command and desired LO
frequencies. For L1 this ended up being 64 and 25197. The refclk was set
at 4 MHz, producing an R divider frequency of 62500
Brian:
From what I see it does not continuously stream data, which is a
requirement for my needs. Additionally I am looking at recording GPS L2C
and the new Galileo frequencies, so a tuneable front end is a must.

I've hit a wall with using the DBSRX to record GPS L1 C/A code data. The
signal path consists of the following:
Spirent GPS Simulator -> 2 MHz wide SAW @ L1 -> +40 dB Miteq Amp ->

Before I submit my DBSRX C++ driver, I need some tips on the preferred
style to the GnuRadio mods out there:
Should the DBSRX class (db_dbs_rx) inherit the usrp_standard_rx class
(currently I pass a handle to an already created usrp_standard_rx handle
in the contructor)?

use to do so? Thanks!

I'm in the process of debugging my DBSRX driver, and have verified the
following:
1) The GC1 input voltage from the aux_dac can be properly commanded.
Verification was carried out by probing the GC1 pin on the Max2118 chip,
and observing the voltage sweep from .75 to 2.6 Volts.
2) The enable

You can do this externally by putting in a bias-tee in the RF line prior
to input to the USRP. I've personally used the following from MiniCircuits:

I guess this implies there is no C++ native DBSRX support at this time?
Does there exist an ICD to the DBSRX daughterboard that I could write a

Is there a missing class for the DBSRX daughterboard not include in the
