Eric, I also recently received some enclosures... this is my two cents, YMMV, etc: If the fan is installed such that it blows in onto the USRP, it will receive the direct benefit of the airflow. However, the fan makes a lot of noise in this configuration because the blades are right next to the pe

Hello, I have a USRP with an RFX2400 mounted on the A side and a FLEX900 mounted on the B side. Everything works great UNTIL I connect the SMA jumpers from a TX/RX port on either board to the case. When the connection between the TX/RX ground and the case is made, a short occurs, the regulator get

I know this is an old thread, but... I just had the same issue and found one alternative. If you are using two cables to connect a set of BasicTX and BasicRX daughterboards, there is a simple workaround. Just replace the definition of carrier_sensed(self) to "False" instead of "self.rxpath.carrier

Matt, can you elaborate on the 20MHz bandwidth figure for the Flex400 and give some USRP application guidance? I have this "8MHz maximum supportable bandwidth" figure in my head which I think came from the sampling/decimation rates + USB2 throughput limitation discussed in the USRP documentation..?

[Discuss-gnuradio] TVRX flatness + USRP gain setting?

2005-10-21 Thread Weber, Michael J. \(US SSA\)
What is the recommended position of the USRP gain setting when using the TVRX daughtercard? Looking at the FFT plots, if the gain is maxed out it appears that the signal drops about 13dB from center to edge, regardless of the bandwidth of the decimated signal. I.E, if the signal is 640KHz wide, th

Has anyone done any work on creating some intelligent behaviors based on the FFT outputs? I'm thinking of things like autotuning to new strong signals, autoconfiguring demodulator bandwidths (wide or narrow FM, for example), drawing a vertical indicator line in the plot to indicate various things,

Steve, thanks for the link... I think articles like these miss two big points: 1: Software does not cause RF interference (of the magnitude that disrupts my neighbor's television... yes, I've seen the video-card-as-AM-broadcast demos too...) It takes some hardware to cause noticeable interference

Most wireless weather sensors transmit a half-second burst or so every 40-60 seconds around 433MHz... you can pick up a remote temp/humidity sensor from Radio Shack if you or your neighbors don't have one already. I've also seen wireless thermometer setups in Home Depot, Target, K-mart, and the lik
