Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Two USRP B210s with Octoclock-G (Samith Abeywickrama)

2016-09-07 Thread Luca Pascale
Hi Samith, to calibrate phase offset you can use a "calibration signal". Using a (phase) balanced power divider you can feed the 4 rf input with this calibration signal and use it to estimate differential phasors between the 4 channels taking one of them as reference (i.e. the first). You will hav

2015-08-12 Thread Luca Pascale
Hi Marcus, in the picture you see the power output of the signal generator is -30 dBm. Changing it to -90 dBm does not produce any change in the received signal except a (obvious) lower level. There is not other amplifier between signal generator output and N200 input. Luca -- Ing. Luca

2015-08-11 Thread Luca Pascale
Hi Martin, Marcus, I am using a N200 + WBX. Gain set on the USRP is equal to 5 dB. Changing the power of the input signal does not change anything. Moreover the output of the signal generator is sent (via a 2way power divider) to a spectrum analyzer and the input signal is ok. I made some other t

Hi all, why when I use: uhd::tune_request_t tr(tuningFreq); USRP_DEVICE->set_rx_freq(tr); I get a spectrum that is "mirrored" around the tuninFreq ? See: http://picpaste.com/sp-zJquS0qK.png with tuningFreq = 149.8 MHz, input signal at F = 150 MHz (from signal generator) If I use a LO offset diff

Hi all, I am working with a usrp2+BasicRx and an external tuner with a 21.4 MHz IF output and a bandwidth of about 20 MHz. The same setup but with usrp1 (instead of usrp2) it's working well. Now I am injecting a tone at 21.45 MHz (-60 dBm) at the input of the BasicRX and set the usrp2 freq at 21.
